Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk: A fight 22 years in waiting
Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk was originally scheduled to take place on Feb. 17 but was postponed due to a facial injury sustained by the Brit in training. While announcing the rescheduled date on The MMA Hour, Saudi Arabia's royal adviser and the fight's primary promoter Turki Alalshikh said that if either fighter pulled out from the date, they would have to forfeit $10 million of their fight purse. "If Usyk is scared, I will call for [Anthony] Joshua vs. Tyson," he said. "If Tyson is scared, I will call for any fighter Usyk wants, and it's my name on this thing."
But Usyk has been waiting for this fight for 22 years. In an interview with DAZN Boxing ahead of the fight on Saturday, the Ukrainian said, "I prepared for this fight for 22 years... This is [the] big exam."
But Fury is adamant about spoiling Usyk's dream. He believes this fight will be a battle for the ages between the two best boxers of this age, but he will emerge victorious.
"This is the era of Hector and Achilles," Fury told Sky Sports. "So when there [were] two top fighting men in that day, the two best was Hector and Achilles. This is it. This is for who's the Hector and who's the Achilles. I believe the Achilles is me."
