Bob Arum, co-promoter of WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, hopes to organize a mega-fight of his ward against WBA, WBO and IBF titleholder Alexander Usik.

"Right now we're collecting proposals from locations that want to have this fight. Then we'll take about another week to get both sides together and agree on everything.

There's no doubt that this is the only heavyweight fight that makes sense. We have two outstanding fighters, neither of them has ever lost. Together, they own all the belts. What could be better than that? If we get a Fury vs. Usik fight, no one will say they should have fought someone else. Everyone will say it's the best fight for both guys.

I consider myself a good friend of Usik. I've been around him for years, ever since we signed Lomachenko. Usik and I used to laugh together a lot. I've spent a lot of time with him, so I don't think it would be difficult to get this fight," Arum told BoxingScene.
