JAKARTA - The duel of Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk, which was actually held in Saudi Arabia on February 17, 2024, was officially postponed. Fury suffered a severe injury to his temple during training.
The decision to postpone it made Usyk's manager, Egis Klimas, furious. He even called Fury a coward and the injury considered an excuse to avoid the fight against Usyk.
In fact, Klimas considers the injury fabricated and intentional.
"Fury is a coward who would do anything not to confront Usyk."
"He asked the woman ( Fury's wife) to hit her with a frying pan on her eyebrows. You can quote me word for word for that," said Klimas in The Ring Magazine.
The Fury vs Usyk duel titled Fight of the Century is actually worth 100 million pounds.
