The collapse of Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk‘s fight disappointed the whole world. The two Heavyweights were set to clash in an undisputed Heavyweight title fight. But their negotiations came to an abrupt end a week ago. And it seems like this collapse has raised questions to people about Tyson Fury. John Fury recently disapproved of the remarks made by Fury’s trainer after the collapse of the fight. And he did not stop at that. American Sugarhill Steward is one of the most famous trainers in the world. And he is majorly known for being the trainer of Tyson Fury.
In an interview with MetroNews, John Fury discussed his opinion about Steward’s remarks and claimed he wants his son to “sack” him. He talked about the loyalty of the people around his son. He believes that all the people around Tyson need “sacking.” He said, “Tyson knows my opinion, and that is all those people wrapped around him want sacking. The full lot.”
The 58-year-old further questioned the loyalty of Tyson’s team and said, “‘If they talk about loyalty, that’s not loyalty as far as I’m concerned. If you are stood by your man, shoulder to shoulder, you take it all. You’re not going to pass the blame or distance yourself from him.”

‼️ John Fury has said Tyson Fury should SACK SugarHill Steward for comments after the Oleksandr Usyk collapse: “What the hell was that about? 'I'm only here for Okolie.' I've seen him training Tyson. He denied him like Judas denied Jesus. That's a sacking offence.” [@Metro_Sport]

Fury Sr. was angered toward Stweard for his remarks after the collapse of the Usyk fight. He said, “What the hell was that about? ‘I’m only here for Okolie.’ I’ve seen him training Tyson. He denied him like Judas denied Jesus. That’s a sacking offense.” After the negotiations with the Ukranian ended, Sugarhill Steward claimed that he was only in the UK to train Larence Okolie for his title defense fight. And the trainer further claimed that his flight tickets were booked for March 28.
John Fury is unhappy with this charade of Tyson’s trainer and believes that Tyson falls in love with people and later finds out that they are not what they seem to be. This raised a lot of questions for the people around him. From the media’s view, the relationship between Steward and the current WBC Heavyweight champion seems close. And Steward once named the next Heavyweight who can be as great as Tyson Fury

User @mobydick70 still believes that Fury ducked his fight with Usyk. And thinks that it will affect his “legacy.”
Fury’s ducking him, it’s actually embarrassing. Could be the only blot on his legacy , if the fight does not come to fruition.
