The Saudis won't want that fight and it's a high risk-low reward fight for Usyk. If he loses the Fury fight goes up in smoke, along with the big payday from Riyadh. Usyk and Fury are both likely on their way out, so this is their big opportunity to really cash out. Better to wait it out than to have a Wilder happen.
Me neither. Sure the guy is big, has a good amateur pedigree, and an 82% finish rate but he's yet to fight anyone even remotely as skilled as Usyk. His best win is an old Zhang that the majority of observers feel was a gift decision.
It's just a cut so hopefully they can reschedule in literally a month.
Well, he's already 37, and he's made enough money for the rest of his life, and if he beat Fury he's been unified champion in 2 divisions.
This will be his sixth fight at heavyweight. Witherspoon, Chisora, Joshua 2x, Dubois, and Fury (or Hrgovic first). Reportedly he's set to switch sports. He just signed to a Ukrainian premier league soccer club for a year. So, if he becomes undisputed in his second weight class, I think he'll retire.
A cut that reportedly required 15 stitches to close. He won't even be able to spar for another 4-6 weeks at the earliest.
youve missed it. he's retired several thousand times.

Of course it's just for promotion.
Yes I was thinking 6 months especially as same eye that was so badly injured against Wallin. Will be super cautious.
Promotion of course. He's 37 years old and hasn't played soccer seriously since he was a teen. He impressed them at one of their friendly games, basically tried out, and was signed. Had Bolt ever played soccer before? Usyk did. He played for Tavriya Simferopol before he switched to boxing.
He is just a pathetic coward
