Frank Warren, promoter of WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, explained why his client spoke badly to Oleksandr Usyk at a press conference.
In an interview with Boxing Scene Warren said:
Frank Warren
Look the last time we signed for it last year, it was them who pulled out. Tyson's very frustrated. I think that frustration boiled over at the press conference in as much as, this has been a real irritant, everyone saying "why isn't this going on".
Recall, Usyk and Fury should hold a fight on February 17, 2024.
Fury last fight held against Francis Ngannou in October 2023. In this confrontation Tyson won by split decision of judges. He has 34 wins (24 by knockout), one draw and no defeats.
Usyk last entered the ring in August 2023, defeating Daniel Dubois by knockout in the ninth round. He has 21 wins (14 by knockout) without a single defeat.
