Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk | PPV - 18 May 2024

Totally agree. He used Joshua's name to keep his own name current before taking a guaranteed victory instead, says a lot about his actual belief in himself. I 100% think he doesn't fancy Uysk and I dont think he is totally certain that he would beat Joshua.

FW spent 6 weeks trying to make the Joshua fight. Unfortunately Joshua didn't have enough confidence to even attend the event.

Let's guess....he was at a fashion show instead?

He is promoting a talk he’s doing in Saudi in February so god knows what’s going on with a March fight. Obviously commercial stuff comes first for AJ.

A talk? My God, that sounds horrific. Obviously not as horrific as a fashion show, but still.

You're wasting your time. There's a few who are all over this Fury-Usyk thread who choose to believe that Joshua was preparing to fight last weekend.

Well, Tyson and Usyk’s manager sounded confident of it happening on Talksport today.

Doofus, Fury said in August he was coming out of retirement to fight Dek Chisora. Are you calling him a liar? Well you can't because he did actually fight Dek Chisora, as he said he would back in August.

Did Talksport not think of calling the real experts?

Be very very suprised if his big 2023 includes Usyk

He is trying Donald Trump tactics of trying to belittle his opponents with silly names to convince people that he is the best. Replace ' Crooked Hilary' with ' The Middleweight' or ' Sleepy Joe Biden' with ' The Bodybuilder'. The same playbook. All veneer.

The Del fight will prove a master stroke if he fights Usyk. Everyone on here has vowed to forgive him, so around £10m for basically starting a training camp is great business.

Well I really, really, really do hope he fights Usyk next, and i'd hold my hands up and say 'Wow. I'm sorry for being so doubtful, you've made me look a complete twat'. However, there seems to be some gaslighting already going on to put a more tailor-made style of opponent to the fore.

I guess it was too difficult for Doofus to answer the question. Ah well.

A masterstroke that will probably shave about 10 years off Chisora's life..

Fury now coming out and defending Usyk's size saying he's not a small Heavyweight and bigger than Ali and about same size as Foreman


When I say defending I mean contradicting himself from his own nonsense

Oleksandr Usyk posts selfie with Tyson Fury and captions it with funny Ukrainian insult which may have been lost in translation

Oleksandr Usyk has now posted the selfie he took with Tyson Fury during their face-off last weekend.

The Ukrainian was ringside for the bout and so got a close-up view of the action.

During his post-fight interview, Fury called out Usyk, prompting him to step onto the ring apron as the pair faced off over the ropes.

The Brit hurled insults at his rival who remained unmoved before Joe Joyce also crashed the confrontation.

At the end of it all, Usyk was seen taking a selfie with his fellow heavyweights.

And he has now posted the picture he took with Fury.

It follows a pattern from when he previously did the same before beating Anthony Joshua.



Usyk captioned the image: “Пузіко як справи.”

The automatic translation on Instagram says this means: “Belly button, what’s up?”

However, there is dispute online with others claiming he’s actually just saying ‘tummy’ or ‘belly’ to poke fun at Fury’s physique.

It appears the actual meaning may have been lost in translation.

On Thursday, Usyk’s manager told talkSPORT the fight is ‘almost done’.

“We’ve been in negotiations even before the [Chisora] fight, that’s why we showed up to the fight,” Klimas explained.

“So, I’ve been speaking with Queensbury promotions before and we spoke to Top Rank [on Thursday] morning on a conference call.

“All of us got together and we are almost done, there is not much left to talk.

“Two heavyweights, the best in the sport today, undisputed heavyweight championship bout, that is what the fans need.”

Maybe it's some kind of a crooked Ukrainian dialect. Usyk has always been speaking Russian in public and he started to speak Ukrainian only recently for some unknown reason. Gotta learn it a bit better.

What you think he could have meant?
