Oleksandr Usyk has planned a rematch with Tyson Fury
On December 21, 2024, Oleksandr Usyk plans to have a rematch with Tyson Fury. Also, after this, the Ukrainian might arrange another sparring session with Daniel Dubois. This was stated by his manager Egis Klimas.
Usyk's team recalled the first fight, when many said he did not deliver a low blow. However, they believe that this blow did occur. The referee allowed Oleksandr a bit more Time, and he used it. Klimas believes that every smart fighter should have acted the same way.
«After Fury, Daniel will be the ideal opponent for Oleksandr. Then Usyk can prove once again how he can defeat Dubois and become the undisputed heavyweight champion», - stated Klimas.
Let's recall that current IBF world champion Daniel Dubois is desperately eager to take a rematch with Oleksandr Usyk. Usyk previously defeated Dubois in August 2023, knocking him out in the 9th round.
It also became known that Usyk became the first undisputed world boxing champion in the heavyweight category. And Tyson Fury, the former world heavyweight champion, is very determined ahead of the rematch with Usyk.
