Usik's promoter told his version of how Fury got cut

“I can’t blame him for the fact that it’s staged. Such offensive things happen. It is a fact that the dissection is real. An unambiguous fact. Now the nature of this dissection is where certain questions may arise. I am not a supporter of conspiracy theories. I don’t believe that this was done on purpose to avoid a fight with Usyk. I'm more inclined towards the disorganization, lack of discipline that is inherent in Fury. And about the video that was fed to us... As they wrote to me in the comments, it was filmed on the camera that Charlie Chaplin was filmed with. It is impossible to get such a cut in a helmet wearing 20 ounce gloves. That's why they started telling us that there was an elbow strike. But, excuse me, how could you get there, into that gap with your elbow? In my personal opinion, Fury, as always, was negligent in his sparring, boxed without a helmet, missed a left hook that tore his eyebrow, which was damaged in previous fights, including the fight with Ngannou...” said Krasyuk.
