Oleksandr Usyk‘s team fears the match against Tyson Fury will miss the target date of 29th April, putting the fight in jeopardy. In an interview with SkySports, Alexander Krassyuk, the promoter of Usyk, even stated that he lacked confidence in the fight taking place on the said date. In fact, Egis Klimas, the manager of Usyk, on Twitter recently declared that if the fight moved just for one day, the spilt would be 50/50 yet again between Fury and Usyk.

Following the statements by Krassyuk and Klimas, ‘The Gypsy King’ in one of his Instagram Stories announced that he will definitely fight on 29th April. In addition, he blasted Krassyuk for being the worst manager in history. TalkSPORT correspondent Michael Benson tweeted the brief clip.

Alexander Krassyuk, the promoter of Oleksandr Usyk speaks about the 70/30 split with Tyson Fury

While Tyson Fury branded Krassyuk as a “bum dosser” for allowing Usyk to fight for a 70/30 split, Krassyuk spoke about the real objective that his fighter Usyk put in front of him. According to Krassyuk, the idea of unifying all the belts in the Heavyweight division takes precedence over money for Usyk.

As reported by SkySports, Krassyuk said, “It all depends on the objective that the fighter puts in front of him. If it’s about money then it’s definitely enough, if it’s about the victory, I don’t think so. Because this is the biggest thing Usyk wants, the baddest thing he wants in his life. To unify all the belts in the Heavyweight division, the second division in his career.
