Just after the battle of the heavyweights Anthony Joshua and Alexander Povetkin promoter Eddie Hearn began to promote in UK another megafight: Alexander Usyk vs Tony Bellew, where four cruiserweight belts of the Ukrainian are at stake. The duel, which could be the last in this division for Usyk, will be on November 10 at the Manchester Arena.
Today at noon the sale of tickets started. Prices were from 40 to 800 pounds. And a few hours after the start of sales in Manchester, the first press conference of the fighters was held. Antenna Usyk the room and sat down at the table on which all his belts lay, turned to Bellew, who was just examining them: "Beautiful - yes, Tony? Beautiful? Your dream, my friend!"
Bellew, who was already fighting as a heavyweight, was asked why he returned to the cruiserweight: "I was just at a honeymoon and I watched the duel of Usyk and Gassiev on my phone. The fight ended, my wife looked at me and said: "We should enjoy these evenings, but you look in the phone... "And then I heard him say my name, I looked at him and knew that we would meet. In general, the more you write me off, the more I want to fight. Let's see, I'm going against the monster, money is not the only reason I want to fight. I want to meet a man who dismantles his rivals, who beat them easily and did not make mistakes. Now he looks through me, considers me arrogant, he even said this on Saturday in one of his comments."
"Tony, I'm not a monster!," corrected Usyk his rival and joked. "I'm a white rabbit."
