Tyson Fury has been told he risks being disqualified during his much-anticipated fight against Oleksandr Usyk.As a result, the fight was rescheduled to take place on May 18 at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.Ahead of the fight, Fury has been warned by his former opponent Steve Cunningham that he could be disqualified against: “I believe Ngannou only looked as good as he did fighting Fury because Fury didn’t take fighting an MMA guy seriously.
“I think Usyk wins by decision against Fury. Either that or Fury gets disqualified. Fury’s going to have to lean and lay all over Usyk to tire him down as he does usually. I think the referee will be alerted to this before the fight and Fury will lose points.”It has been expected that if Fury manages to beat Usyk, a fight against fellow Brit Anthony Joshua could finally happen.
“For the actual real boxing, it’s me and Usyk who fight for the undisputed heavyweight world championship of the world. I had a s*** performance against Ngannou, that’s what a boxer should have done with him, but if he fights next year it’ll be a different game.”Last time out, Fury had to dig deep to get the better of former UFC champion Francis Ngannou, with the boxing champion coming out on top via decision.
