‘Are They Gonna Make Slaves Build a New Stadium for This One Too?’: Boxing World Reacts as 2022 FIFA World Cup Host Might Bag Tyson Fury vs. Usyk

Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk are finally going to meet for the undisputed heavyweight championship. Per reports, the deal for this clash is almost done, and the fight is most likely to take place next year in February or in the first week of March. However, confirmation is still pending.

During negotiation, Qatar has emerged as the potential host for this highly anticipated event. Egis Klimas, Usyk’s manager, also mentioned Saudi Arabia as part of his negotiation deal.

Where ever it would be either in Saudi or Qatar, boxing fans are not happy with this decision. They wanted this fight to take place in the USA or in the UK. So when they came across this new development on Twitter, they commented on it.

How did fans react to the news saying Qatar will host Tyson Fury vs. Usyk fight?

A fan wrote, “Are they gonna make the slaves build a new stadium for this one too?” 

Notably, Qatar is already hosting the 2022 FIFA World Cup. They constructed a new stadium to make this event happen. So this fan has asked a reasonable question if a stadium would be needed for this fight, which indeed would be then how was Qatar is going to manage that?

Another fan raised the biggest problem the boxing world is facing. Fights that are most likely to take place, like Terence Crawford vs. Errol Spence Jr, fell apart at the last minute. Fans have lost trust in these circulating storylines. On the other hand, Fury’s unstable mood has also contributed to it a lot.

Another fan raised a legit problem because most of the events of boxing are shifting in the Middle East. Oleksandr Usyk vs Anthony Joshua rematch also took place there only.

Another fan wanted this fight to take place at Wembley Arena, which has the potential to occupy more than 100000 spectators.

There are few fans who don’t care about the venue of the event. They are just happy that this fight is finally going to take place.

The fight is still hanging till confirmation comes from the promoters and fighters.

Unlike Crawford vs. Spence, hopefully, this speculation turns out to be true.
