Usyk responded whether he is ready to hold a trilogy with Fury
Alexander Usyk, the undefeated world champion in the heavyweight division according to WBA, WBC, IBF, and IBO, announced his readiness to hold a third match with the famous British boxer Tyson Fury.
“It’s not excluded. It can happen, but we need to get to that point. He wants it, I know, we’ve communicated with his manager,” Usyk shared during a conversation on his YouTube channel USYK17.
In his last fight, which took place on July 20 at Wembley in London, Usyk faced Daniel Dubois. The fight ended in a knockout in the fifth round in favor of Usyk, who was defending his title as the undisputed world champion in the heavyweight division.
Currently, Usyk has 24 victories in his professional career, 15 of which were won by knockout, and no defeats. His professional boxing debut took place in November 2013.
According to the latest news, Usyk will also defend his WBC title in a match against Rico Verhoeven, a former kickboxing champion from the Netherlands. The fight is scheduled for May 23 in Giza.
“After careful consideration of the situation, the Board of Governors of the World Boxing Council (WBC) has sanctioned a voluntary defense of the WBC heavyweight championship title by Alexander Usyk in a fight against Rico Verhoeven. The transition from kickboxing to boxing is not unusual. Many fighters who practiced Muay Thai have successfully transitioned to professional boxing and fought for WBC titles early in their careers. This WBC decision is in accordance with the rules and regulations of the organization. The Pyramids of Egypt will add historical significance to the event. Many have dreamed of this, including our esteemed WBC president José Suleiman,” the press release states.
