BOXING:- Fury calls out Usyk for trilogy
Former world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has called out Oleksandr Usyk for a trilogy fight following the latter’s victory against Daniel Dubois on Saturday night.
Usyk reclaimed his undisputed crown as he managed to overcome Dubois at Wembley.
Fury was defeated by Usyk in May and December 2024, with both fights taking place in Saudi Arabia. Despite announcing his retirement after the second fight, Fury is now ready for a return to the ring.
The Gypsy King praised Usyk for his display against Dubois and declared that he is the only man who is capable of beating the Ukrainian.
Usyk reclaimed the IBF title and added it to his WBA (Super), WBO and WBC belts.
In the first fight between Fury and Usyk, a victory was awarded to Usyk by split decision, with Fury suffering the first defeat of his professional boxing career.
Fury was adamant that he had done enough to win the rematch against Usyk, with his promoter Frank Warren having been left shocked by the scorecards.
So far Usyk has managed to win all 24 of his professional fights.
