So, the 34-year-old "

The words of the British leads The Ring.

" Where I come from they don't call a man unless you're ready to fight him.

Usyk said he spent six months in training camp. I spent my whole life in boxing, always studied it. I never told anyone to do a six month camp.. It's no wonder he got injured after spending half a year at training camp..

Do you know how much I will prepare for the fight with Anthony Joshua if everything grows together? five weeks. I'll get in the ring, knock him out and move on,"

Earlier, Usyk said that he was only interested in a fight with Fury for the title of absolute world champion.. At the same time, the Ukrainian said that this year he no longer plans to enter the ring. The Crimean intends to heal old injuries and fully recover after the revenge from Joshua, as well as spend time with his family. In response, Fury offered Joshua a fight in December of this year..

On the night of August 21, 2022, Usyk defeated Joshua by a split decision in a rematch, which took place in the city of Jeddah (Saudi Arabia). Thus, the Ukrainian defended all the titles taken from AJ last fall, and also won the vacant belt of The Ring magazine.

Fury on the night of April 24, 2022 knocked out his compatriot Dillian Whyte and retained the WBC title, after which he announced his retirement.

Thus, in a potential fight between Usyk and Fury, four main belts (WBA, WBO, IBF, WBC) and the title of absolute world heavyweight champion will be at stake..

The 35-year-old Usyk has 20 wins (13 by knockout) in 20 fights. He held four of them in the heavyweight division.. Before that, Alexander became the absolute world champion in the cruiserweight (weight category up to 90.7 kg), having won all four of the most prestigious belts there..

The 34-year-old Fury has 32 wins (23 by knockout) and one draw.
