The Ukrainian boxer, fresh off his victory over Daniel Dubois, took to Instagram to call out the WBC titleholder, demanding the long-awaited undisputed showdown.
Usyk's Fiery Message to Fury
In a video shared on his Instagram account, Usyk directly addressed Fury, stating: "Hey greedy belly, I'm coming for you!" The post comes after months of stalled negotiations between the two camps for what would be one of the biggest fights in heavyweight boxing history.
Dubois Victory Sets Stage for Fury Clash
Usyk's dominant performance against Dubois in Riyadh last August solidified his position as one of the division's elite. Now, with the WBA, IBF, and WBO belts secured, the Olympic gold medalist appears determined to add Fury's WBC title to his collection.
