Tyson Fury v Oleksandr Usyk undisputed title fight is now off (Sky News)

Talks to stage the undisputed world heavyweight title fight between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk have failed to reach a conclusion; Usyk team on how the ...

But the wait, for the fight the boxing world was longing to see, is set to continue. "I will try to express how disappointed I am, not just for Usyk, not just for this fight not happening but for all boxing fans around the world. It's definitely not Usyk's payday and it's definitely not his attempt to get more money. He made a remarkable return in 2018 and controversially drew with Deontay Wilder that year. "I treat Frank with big respect. Usyk would love to be part of such a huge fight, we all are willing, we are thirsty to make it happen. It's his attempt to get the WBC belt," Krassyuk said. "With Usyk, we've been together since 2013. He said, 'How many more times do I have to bow my head in front of Tyson. Talks to stage the undisputed world heavyweight title fight between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk have failed to reach a conclusion; Usyk team on how the negotiations collapsed: "We're thirsty to make it happen. I would love to make it happen as the promoter. We're going to use each and every effort.

Eddie Hearn proposes four-man tournament featuring Tyson Fury ... (Mirror.co.uk)

Hearn wants to see Joshua face Fury and Oleksandr Usyk fight Deontay Wilder to produce the next challengers for the undisputed heavyweight belts.

Wilder was expected to face Andy Ruiz Jr in a fight that would produce the mandatory challenger for Fury's WBC belt, but the fight was put in jeopardy last month after 'The Bronze Bomber' revealed he [cut ties with Premier Boxing Champions](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/boxing/deontay-wilder-andy-ruiz-fight-29244210). I was supposed to fight him before I fought Usyk, the first time, and he pulled out due to his legal case, the arbitration, with Wilder. Despite Hearn's recent proposal, Joshua admitted he isn't confident that he will ever fight Fury before both men hang up their gloves. Joshua is back in action next weekend as he looks to pick up his first win in over two years when he takes on Franklin at The O2 arena. The promoter would then look to see the winners of the two fights face each other, as he tweeted: "If Fury vs Usyk doesn’t get made...and AJ gets past [Jermaine] Franklin...Fury vs AJ, Wilder vs Usyk - winner vs winner for undisputed." The promoter's idea comes after an undisputed clash between heavyweight champions Fury and Usyk collapsed earlier this week.

Fury has previously said that if he doesn't get the Usyk undisputed title fight, he'd box Joyce in an all-British blockbuster bout.

In a message to Usyk, Bakole declared: "I'm available any time, anywhere. "Everyone wants to see undisputed. Then people can challenge me for it, be in some great fights and then we can all live happily ever after," Joyce said. "Can you just get the fight made please guys? What's the reason this time?" "I'm hoping that it's going to happen.

Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk is OFF: What happens next in the ... (Daily Mail)

At long last the coast finally appeared clear for boxing to crown its first undisputed heavyweight king in over two decades. Nothing could get in its way...

Two weeks before Joyce takes on Zhang, it is inevitable that Fury vs Joshua will resurface as the next dream match-up for fans to salivate over. As mandatory challenger for Usyk's WBA strap, Dubois is now guaranteed a shot at the Ukrainian next if he chooses to take it. The duo are also both under Frank Warren's Queensberry banner, meaning this one would actually be simple to negotiate for a change. And when Fury and Usyk likely prevail in alternative title defences, you can bet your house on the same disappointing cycle playing out again later this year. The Gypsy King will likely target an all-British scrap with Joe Joyce, while Daniel Dubois is set for a shot at the unified champion... There goes the undisputed pipedream once more. Joyce is next in action against fellow Olympic silver medallist Zhilei Zhang on April 15, and providing he emerges unscathed he will be at the front of the queue for a crack at Fury. Joyce is the third mandatory challenger on the unified champion's horizon, however he has worked into that position with the WBO, who are believed to be at the back of the queue given Usyk himself was mandated with the sanctioning body to face Joshua in September 2021. With Fury vs Usyk OFF, what happens next at heavyweight? Taking on one of the best pound-for-pound fighters of all time in Usyk may not be the shrewdest of moves for the 25-year-old at this stage of his career Nothing could get in its way... could it?
