Tyson Fury, the WBC Heavyweight Champion, has been compelled to postpone his highly anticipated bout against unified Champion Oleksandr Usyk. The setback occurred during a sparring session in Riyadh, where Fury sustained a peculiar cut above his right eye. The injury demanded immediate medical attention, extensive stitching, and will necessitate a substantial recovery period, thwarting any possibility of the scheduled clash with Usyk on February 17th in Saudi Arabia.
A spokesperson expressed profound disappointment, acknowledging the collective efforts to bring this historic event to fruition. They emphasized the need to await the doctors’ assessment of Fury’s eye before determining the duration of recovery. The intention is to collaborate closely with stakeholders and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to promptly reschedule the fight, with updates promised as developments unfold.
Tyson Fury, visibly disheartened, shared his sentiments, lamenting the extensive preparation and exceptional condition he had achieved for the bout. He expressed remorse for the impact on all involved parties, including his team, Team Usyk, undercard fighters, partners, fans, and the gracious hosts in Saudi Arabia. Fury pledged dedicated efforts towards the rescheduled date once his eye has fully healed, extending apologies to everyone affected by the unfortunate turn of events.
