MOSCOW, Aug 23British boxer Tyson Fury's promoter Frank Warren said his client asked him to organize a fight against Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk this year. determined where they can make the most money.The terms of the deal are very simple, it will be a 50/50 split.This fight is easier to arrange than with (Anthony) Joshua because there are no competing promoters involved.Usyk's people are free agents, and that's not a problem. As for whether there will be a rematch, I really don't know. It depends on the negotiations. I'm focused on organizing the fight,» Warren was quoted by Talksport. Warren hinted that the fight could take place in the Middle East . Earlier, the Daily Mail reported that the match between Usyk and Fury was planned to be held in Saudi Arabia the day before the World Cup final in Qatar — December 17. «There will be huge demand for this in the UK, but where would you do it? We can't organize a fight before next year. It makes no sense to go to the Millennium (in Cardiff — approx. ed.), it does not accommodate as many people as Wembley, and cannot bring in as much money. If it is held in the UK, then it should be Wembley but then it won't be until the end of April or May of next year we want to do it sooner if he went to the middle east it would be better because of the time of year as it won't be so hot there There will be a lot of people there because they will be at the World Cup,” Warren added. In a duel with Briton Anthony Joshua, the 35-year-old Ukrainian retained the World Boxing Association (WBA Super), World Boxing Organization (WBO), International Boxing Federation (IBF) and International Boxing Organization (IBO) world titles. At the end of the fight, he stated that he sees only Fury as a possible opponent. Fury, 34 years old, in April, the Briton knocked out compatriot Dillian Whyte and defended the World Boxing Council (WBC) title for the second time in a row, remaining undefeated (32 wins and one draw). He has repeatedly announced his retirement.
