Tyson Fury announced after hanging up his gloves earlier this year that he would only return for the undisputed title fight. Unfortunately, it did not happen because when he proposed a fight to the new unified heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk after the rematch with Anthony Joshua, the latter turned it down,
‘The Gypsy King‘ wanted to make it happen this year only but Usyk was not in the mood. He wanted a decent time period to prepare for this possible clash. He wanted to bring a tough battle on the WBC heavyweight champion, who is regarded as one of the greatest heavyweight champions of all time.
