Oleksandr Usyk Willing to Fight Tyson Fury ‘In Space’ Amid Criticism

Unified heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk proved that he was worthy of beating the best after his victory over Anthony Joshua. Despite that, many fans have criticized the Ukrainian boxer for stalling a fight against WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury. Fury initially wanted to face Usyk on December 3 but was denied after the latter needed some time off.

However, it looks like ‘The Cat’ has not conceded to ‘The Gypsy King’ as he spoke about his willingness to face Fury. The champ made an appearance for Fury’s trilogy against Derek Chisora and also had some words to say to his rival. In an interview with Talksport, Usyk was asked about his willingness to take on Fury. He then claimed that he would face the British boxer anywhere in the world.

“Am I looking forward to fighting Fury if he wins tonight? Of course. UK, Saudi Arabia, in space, for me it is not a problem. I’ll fight anywhere.” He said.

Fury will be more than interested to hear that Usyk is willing to face him for the undisputed title but first has to overcome ‘Del Boy’ for the third time, which many believe that he will easily be able to do.

However, Chisora is a veteran of the sport and possesses serious punching power. A false sense of security from Fury could result in him being in a similar situation as Anthony Joshua, following his defeat against Andy Ruiz Jr. in their first fight.

Tyson Fury warns Oleksandr Usyk not to enter the ring for his upcoming fight

‘The Gypsy King’ has issued a warning for Usyk before his match against Chisora. In an interview with ESPN Ringside Fury stated that he would knock out the unified champ if he dared to enter the ring. “You get into my venue, get in my area and you get knocked the f**k out. I’ll Debo the motherf***r” said Fury.

This is not the first time Fury has called out Usyk for ducking him. However, his fight against Chisora could be a turning point in this rivalry that could eventually lead to one of the biggest fights in modern boxing.
