Sergey Lapin, a member of coaching staff of the WBA, IBF, IBO, and WBO heavyweight champion Oleksander Usyk, revealed that Filip Hrgovic is the backup fighter for Usyk's scheduled bout against Tyson Fury on May 18 in Saudi Arabia.

Lapin told Fruity Slots:

If he continues to run, then we have a clause in the agreement to replace Fury with Filip Hrgovic. Hrgovic is the back-up opponent, so the show will go on regardless of whether he shows up.
