People think that TYSON FURY will PULL OUT of his epic heavyweight figҺt with Oleksandr Usyk.
The Gypsy King will try to become the first clear leader of the group in more than 25 years in an expensive figҺt in Saudi Arabia next month.

He held the WBA, IBF, and IBO belts.Shawn Porter thinks that the Wythenshawe warrior might think about pulling out of the historic figҺt because of how big of a job he has to do.”Think about a guy like Tyson Fury. He’s been around this track so many times,” the former WBC welterweight champion told ProBox TV.There comes a time when a boxer looks ahead to the toughest night and thinks, ‘Man, I’ve already had so many of those hard nights. I’m not going to have that one.'”People who know Tyson Fury sаy that he likes to put on shows and that he doesn’t like things to go the other way.”That’s why he went after Francis Ngannou: he wants figҺts like that.””He is looking for things that are going to give him the money and the recognition and the nights that he is not going to have to train hard for anymore.”Porter isn’t the only past world champion who thinks Fury might run away from the figҺt.
Carl Froch, a former suρer-middleweight champion, said on his YouTube account, “He’s got a bit of timber on him, a bit of derby that he needs to reign in before the fig.”
“I think it will be hard for Tyson to relax, enjoy Christmas and New Year’s, and keep his bald head down during those times.”
“We saw on Netflix that he has a great family.
“He has a big family with seven kids and a wife.”
“So, he’s gonna want to relax and have a good time.”Do you think he’ll want to train over Christmas and New Year, which he will have to do to be ready for the event in February?
It’s not clear to me; I think that fig might be pushed back until March. “This is where you heard it first.”
He told us: “Hopefully it does happen in February.”The unification figҺt between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk, for the heavyweight undisputed unification figҺt, has to happen.
“I’m optimistic it will, I’ve just got my reservations that it’s going to happen in February.”
