Uysk in limbo over possible fight with Wilder from Zuffa Boxing

• BBC Sport reports that Usyk’s previous fight with Zuffa Boxing was followed by a rematch against Deontay Wilder in the United States.
• The material states that Usyk’s holding of the WBA “Super”, WBC and IBF titles, but also the announcement that he does not want to go through “one last dance”.
• According to BBC Sport, for the next stage there is no information on what exact conditions were met.

In the background of the new developments, Oleksandr Usyk’s next fight was already being discussed: according to BBC Sport, an agreement between Zuffa Boxing and Deontay Wilder for a rematch against Deontay Wilder in the United States.

The material from BBC Sport states that Usyk has no intention of giving up the WBA “Super”, WBC and IBF titles, but also that he does not want to go through “one last dance”. In the opinion of the insider, the super fight with the final opponent is being delayed for the time being by the command of Sergey Lapin, who said that Usyk’s holding of the WBC belt against “interim” champion Agit Kabayel, but even with the possibility of an immediate title fight, would be the most logical option.

With reference to The Independent, it is reported that the sporting director Sergey Lapin does not want Usyk to fight in the near future with Antonios Joshua, but instead to wait for a rematch with Wilder.
