JAKARTA - Tyson Fury refuses to confirm whether he will box Oleksandr Usyk in December. Previously, news broke that the two had agreed to take the ring on December 23 in Saudi Arabia.

After Fury's fight with Francis Ngannou, presenter Josh Denzel asked about his duel plans with Usyk. He asked the British boxer and his promoter, Frank Warren, whether the fight would still be going on.

Warren immediately answered diplomatically. "He will rest, that's what will happen next and he will make a decision whether he wants to do it because he's his boss," said the promoter.

Meanwhile Fury gave a answer that was not much different. He admitted that he would return home first to rest after 12 weeks at the training camp.

"I want to go home, take a long break and then we'll see what happens later," Fury said.

However, the boxer from England ensured that the fight with Usyk would definitely happen. The reason is, he has been waiting a long time to make that fight happen.

However, he could not confirm exactly when that would happen.

"Listen, it doesn't depend on me. I'm a fighter and he (Usyk) is also a fighter. I'm sure he will want to do it now. If you want, let's do it now," Fury said.

Warren reiterated that no announcement would be made in the near future. "I don't think the date will be announced soon," he said.

Fury himself just won his fight with Francis Ngannou in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. He won a split decision over the former UFC champion.

However, this victory was marked by controversy. Moreover, he also fell to the canvas in that fight.
