Will Fury vs Usyk Happen On April 29th?

With April 29th now less than six weeks away, it is looking increasingly unlikely that Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk will actually happen.

The fight has been talked about for months, with Fury and Usyk colliding for the undisputed heavyweight championship of the world for all four world title belts. It looked like the fight was a certainty to happen, but now, it looks increasingly unlikely to go ahead on the rumoured date of April 29th.

Both men have been going back and forth on social media for weeks with various videos aimed at each other. To the outrage of boxing fans, it now looks like this fight is well and truly in jeopardy of happening at all.

Tyson Fury posted a video on social media recently demanding 70% of the fight purse, with the Ukrainian only getting 30%. To boxing fans, it looks like Usyk is the one who wants to fight and it is in fact ‘The Gypsy King’ who is throwing spanners in the works day after day.

Usyk has told Fury “the clock is ticking” and that “we did everything in our power to make it happen”. Here is Oleksandr Usyk’s latest tweet:

With a date or venue still not announced, the question remains. Will we see Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk for the undisputed heavyweight championship of the world this year? Fingers crossed we do, but it doesn’t look likely right now.
