Fury Defender Hits Back! No Cowardice, Just Unfortunate Circumstances
Tyson Fury's defender, boxing commentator Spencer Oliver, has stepped up to counter the "coward" label assigned to the WBC belt-holder by Oleksandr Usyk's manager, Egis Klimas. The controversy arose due to Fury's eye injury, leading to the postponement of their undisputed heavyweight clash. Oliver denies any intentional injury, emphasizing that Fury is not a coward. He addresses fans' concerns and refutes the notion that Fury pulled out of the February 17th bout against Usyk deliberately. The rescheduled fight is now set for May 18th at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. "I was disappointed we didn’t get the undisputed fight. Let’s put this to bed now. Tyson Fury is NOT a coward. Forget all that. The guy is proven; he’s not a coward," asserts Spencer Oliver, defending Fury against the negative narrative. Despite the injury setback, Oliver legitimates Fury's cut, describing it as unfortunate and an accidental consequence of the sport. He acknowledges the $10 million penalty clause in the rescheduled fight, putting pressure on Fury not to miss the starting line. "The cut was legit, it’s unfortunate, and it happens," Oliver explains, addressing concerns about Fury's form. "May 18th might be a little soon if I’m totally honest." As the heavyweight drama unfolds, Fury's defender remains firm in his support, emphasizing the legitimacy of the circumstances leading to the fight's postponement. #TysonFury #SpencerOliver #UsykFight #HeavyweightBoxing #FightControversy #FuryDefender #May18Clash #KingdomArena
