Legendary former world champion in two weight categories Evander Holyfield commented on the news that the long-awaited fight for all belts in the heavyweight division between Tyson Fury And Alexander Usik will not take place on February 17 in Saudi Arabia as originally planned.
Let us remind you that yesterday the British boxer received a cut during sparring and announced his withdrawal from the fight.
“This can happen. It all depends on whether Fury was wearing all the gear he should be wearing. This didn’t happen to me because I wore a helmet. I can’t imagine how he missed such a blow because the helmet is quite tight. Before the blow reaches the eye, it hits the padding.
I hope the fight happens at a later date. I see no reason to cancel it,” the American said in an interview with the YouTube channel Fight Hub TV.
