Tyson Fury Vows To Destroy Olegsander Usyk In Future Heavyweight Unification Clash

Shaun Murphy-

Tyson Fury has vowed to destroy  Olegsander Usyk for their heavyweight unification title fight, yet to be officially scheduled. 

Eddie Hearns had originally suggested the fight could take place in December, but it now appears to be heading for early 2023. Both men are unbeaten- Fury in 33 fights,(23 KOs) and Usyk in 20 fights,(13 Kos).
Usyk, who  retained his WBO, WBA and IBF titles with a close split decision rematch victory over Anthony Joshua  is enjoys the noteworthy credentials of also unifying the cruiserweight division.

Fury said: “Usyk, middleweight, you say you want the WBC, well it’s held by the Gypsy King, and it’s held tightly. Grasped tight.”All roads lead to a 7ft behemoth that will absolutely destroy you, middleweight. You will get smashed to bits.

“You said you wanted to fight me after you bit the bodybuilder [Anthony Joshua]… but now you’re running, hiding, saying you’ve got injuries.

“You’ve let your mouth go, now let’s see if you can back it up, middleweight.

“It doesn’t matter if it’s December, April, or August next year. The outcome will be the same, I will obliterate you.”

Usyk has dismissed Fury’s braggadocious comments  as just a game.

He told Sky Sports via an interpreter: “He wants to fight against me. He wants people to talk about him.

“He hasn’t retired yet, it’s just a game – ‘I’m leaving boxing’, ‘I’m coming back’. He still wants to earn money.”All the fanciful comments against me, he probably thinks it will touch me. But it won’t

“I take it like the crow arguing with the wolf sitting from the tree… the reality is that if the crow was close to the wolf, she would keep silent”.

Tyson Fury is expected to be the favourite to beat Usyk and retain the titles, but Usyk’s skill and toughness means he could  potentially pull off a surprise, but Fury’s size allied to his  mobility and skills makes it difficult for most pundits to see the Ukranian defeating the gypsy King.
