Millions of pounds will be on the line next week when Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk go head-to-head
Tyson Fury has admitted that he would like to become the first £500m heavyweight boxer ahead of his clash with Oleksandr Usyk this weekend.
For Usyk, 37, he comes into the encounter having not fought since last August when he defeated Daniel Dubois via knockout. The contest, which is being dubbed 'The Ring of Fire', was meant to take place in February but had to be rescheduled due to the Brit sustaining an eye injury in training.READ MORE: Tyson Fury shows off incredible body transformation ahead of Oleksandr Usyk fight
“I’m looking to do a demolition job on him. I just want to beat the silly sausage. Yes, Usyk is fast, talented, he out-boxed a big heavyweight in Anthony Joshua twice but AJ is one-dimensional, one-paced, and I could outbox him with a blindfold on. I’m just different.” There is a clause included in the contract stating that Fury must donate £1m of his earnings to Ukraine amid its ongoing war with Russia. However, Fury has given an insight in how he would spend his winning should he beat Usyk this weekend, already looking towards a potential rematch.
