JAKARTA - The long-awaited heavyweight battle between Tyson Fury versus Oleksandr Usyk is scheduled to take place in March. The chances for this fight to come even greater after the IBF canceled their mandatory order for Usyk against Filip Hrgovic.
That's what makes promoter Frank Warren even more confident that the spring fight will be carried out as expected.
The Queensberry Promotions boss told talkSPORT, "We're all looking at March and everyone's really ready to finish this and we're all very confident it's going to be done."
"There's still a lot to be done, but I really believe this is going to happen," he continued.
The draft contract for the fight, which is believed to be very profitable, was sent to Usyk last week. Chances are, Fury and Usyk will fight in the Middle East.
"We've sent them a draft contract, that's where we are at the moment," he said.
"Listen, this has to be resolved very, very quickly now that we are going against the time," he added.
Saudi Arabia could be a possible destination. Even though Fury fans want it to be staged in the UK.
Asked where the fight would take place, Warren replied, "Wherever the most money comes from. We know what it can do in England, but if it goes elsewhere, it depends on the amount."
"Muhammad Ali and George Go and fight in Zaire, then there's Thrilla in Manila, there's a big fight in Jamaica. They go where the money is and these people will do the same," he said again.
