Saudi Arabian boxing chief Turki Alalshikh already plans a rematch between WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury and IBF/WBA/WBO champ Oleksandr Usyk for October twelfth or thirteenth in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
It’s questionable whether or not the 35-year-old Fury will be capable of make a fast turnaround to be again within the ring 5 months after his Might 18th battle in opposition to Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs) for a rematch.
Turki Alalshikh didn’t say if there will probably be one other $10 million pull-out penalty for the October rematch, however that might be a good suggestion if he did. It might improve the possibilities of the battle taking place if there’s a penalty concerned.
Can Fury make it by way of one other coaching camp with out struggling some sort of fight-postponing harm?
Hopefully, their rescheduled battle on Might 18th will happen with out one other harm postponement like final time. It’s essential that the battle not solely happen, nevertheless it be aggressive and entertaining.
Followers would favor that the winner of this battle face Anthony Joshua straightaway relatively than watch for the Fury-Usyk rematch to play out.
It might be a disaster if Fury misplaced each fights in opposition to Usyk as a result of it will spoil the Fury-Joshua battle.
Alalshikh desires to stage a battle between Joshua and Fury in March of 2025. He didn’t say if the 2 must be coming off of wins for his or her battle to occur or if it doesn’t matter.
Provided that Francis Ngannou was nonetheless used as an opponent for AJ regardless of having misplaced his final battle, it may not matter if Fury and Joshua are coming off defeats. They’ll nonetheless create numerous curiosity in a battle in March.
I believe if Usyk is the one who emerges victorious in his second battle with Fury, he ought to battle Joshua in March. It’s solely truthful that whoever emerges because the winner of the second Fury-Usyk battle be the man that faces AJ.
