As Tyson Fury gets ready to unretire once more and continue his heavyweight run, he tells Ring Magazine that despite his two losses to Oleksandr Usyk, it\u2019ll be Usyk who will come crawling back to him in hopes of making a third fight before the year is out. Fury reasons that he has the financial backing and is the biggest name opponent out there for Usyk, so it\u2019s the most logical choice for the Ukrainian. Here\u2019s some excerpts with the full video clip at the top!<\/p>\n
Fury on wanting a third shot at Usyk<\/p>\n
\u201cListen, at the end of the year he\u2019ll be begging me for a third fight. It\u2019s not me wanting a fight with him \u2014 he\u2019ll be begging me to do a fight with him, begging me. You watch. You heard it here first.<\/p>\n
\u201cMoney. I\u2019m the cash cow. Top of the tree with the biggest broadcaster on earth behind me, not only for boxing, reality TV and documentaries. I\u2019m their golden child. Where else is he going to go? Who is he going to fight? Fight hard for no money? That sounds really clever to do.\u201d<\/p>\n
On how he\u2019ll feel if he doesn\u2019t get a third fight<\/p>\n
\u201cYeah, I\u2019m not bothered. I\u2019m over it. I don\u2019t care. Here\u2019s the thing, I was very bitter with boxing for a long time. Listen, I\u2019ll honestly think I\u2019ll take to my grave I think I won both of them fights. I\u2019m not just saying it, I thought I won both fights. But like I always say\u2026at the end of the day I didn\u2019t get the decisions, so I move on. But looking back at it now, just shortly after the event, like a couple months, here\u2019s what I\u2019ve come up with\u2026Oleksandr is a good, God-fearing Christian man, family man. So, it\u2019s good.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut I suppose he got his decisions \u2014 God decided he\u2019s going to give him them fights. He took a lot away from [Usyk]. He took his father away. He doesn\u2019t have his dad to celebrate with and I have mine at the end of a call at any time. Isn\u2019t that something? So that just made me like move on from it completely. I just thought \u2018this poor fella, he won all them fights and he\u2019s won undisputed, and the most important thing to him \u2014 to phone his dad or give him a hug or whatever \u2014 he can\u2019t do that and I can.\u2019 So I\u2019m blessed, truly blessed. So that\u2019s why I let it go.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As Tyson Fury gets ready to unretire once more and continue his heavyweight run, he tells Ring Magazine…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":435555,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[2560,6102,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-435554","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-boxing","tag-boxing","tag-boxing-news","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/435554","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=435554"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/435554\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/435555"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=435554"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=435554"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=435554"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
