The heavyweight division has caught everyone’s eye these days due to the rigmarole going on for title fights. Out of all, the WBC champ Tyson Fury is constantly in the news with his active social media presence. Also, Fury is steadily targeting his fellow heavyweight rivals, showing his curiosity to come back and fight.
‘The Gypsy King’ also jibed at the unified heavyweight champ, Oleksandr Usyk in his latest social media posts. That said, his comments caught Egis Klimas’ eyes (Usyk’s manager) and the latter ended up responding to Fury on Twitter.
“Yo man before next time you will mention @usykaa name check with your team, management, advisers, promoters who agreed with all terms and conditions looks like you are the one who is holding this wagon yelling and talking is cheap @Tyson_Fury,” he wrote.

Tyson Fury is keen to test himself against ‘The Cat’. But, he also has a potential opponent in Dillian Whyte who holds the WBC interim title. On the other hand, Usyk too has a rematch in contention with Anthony Joshua, and this entire picture appears confusing to the fans.
Everyone is eager to see an undisputed title fight between Fury and Usyk. However, both of them have their respective opponents in contention.
With this, the coming few weeks will determine the ultimate outcome in this heavyweight mix. Also, Fury and Usyk will get to face whom will also be much clearer.
