Tyson Fury's Confident Stand Usyk Has No Choice but to Fight in December
As Tyson Fury gears up for his highly anticipated exhibition bout against Francis Ngannou in Saudi Arabia, the heavyweight champion remains undeterred about the bigger prize awaiting him in December – a showdown against Oleksandr Usyk. In a recent interview with Sky Sports, Fury expressed his conviction that Usyk "has to" face him in December, emphasizing that his rival has "no choice." Fury's confidence stems from the contractual agreement, making it clear that any delay or evasion would lead to a legal breach, ultimately resulting in a lawsuit. Despite the potential risks of injury or unforeseen outcomes in the Ngannou bout, Fury is resolute in his belief that he will dispose of his opponent within six rounds. His intent is to swiftly deal with Ngannou, whom he humorously referred to as a "sausage," before pivoting to the heavyweight clash with Usyk. The scheduled date for the Fury-Usyk encounter is set for December 23, just eight weeks after Fury's exhibition with Ngannou. Usyk had previously expressed a desire for a 14-week training camp for the fight, which now appears challenging unless he commences with substantial training in the coming weeks. Fury, with his commitment to staying in peak physical condition for the Ngannou fight, has the advantage of transitioning quickly into his training camp for Usyk. Fans eagerly anticipate the undisputed heavyweight championship clash and will be content as long as both fighters are prepared and willing to engage in a memorable contest. As Tyson Fury prepares for his sparring session with Ngannou and subsequently squares up against Usyk, the boxing world awaits a historic bout that promises to deliver thrilling action and a potential test of Fury's formidable skills.
