Promoter Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) claims only one man could stand in the way of a potential year-end heavyweight mega-tournament in Saudi Arabia. And this man - Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs).
According to rumors, an evening with the participation of four leading heavyweights may take place in December. In the unification of all belts, two reigning champions - Usyk (IBF / WBA / WBO) and Fury (WBC) will meet, and in the second fight they will meet each other Anthony Joshua (25-3, 22 KOs) and Deontay Wilder (43-2-1, 42 KOs). It is reported that the Saudis are ready to offer good fees to the participants of this tournament.
“Both Joshua and Wilder are easy to negotiate with, only Fury’s complex nature makes it difficult to discuss this tournament. I have experience negotiating with Joshua, there is nothing difficult about it. Wilder and his adviser Shelley Finkel are also sensible people. It will not be difficult to conclude an agreement with them. If this unification does not happen, it will be the biggest mistake of Fury's career. After all, the main task of boxers is to give the fans the fights they want to see,” said Alexander Krasyuk.
