TORI MASSA

With Anthony Joshua seemingly not with Ben Davison anymore. I can’t help but think is a potential Fabio Wardley fight one of the reasons for this. Eddie Hearn was very frank in saying that the money isn’t there for a Wardley vs Usyk fight. Has he been told that Usyk will vacate his WBO belt, meaning Fabio gets elevated to full championship status and then guess what, AJ has a route to another world title shot.

Brilliant fight!! It’s a Wembley stadium fight. I can see a world where this happens.

🇺🇦 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙙, 𝙗𝙪𝙨𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙨 𝙥𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙣𝙚𝙧 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙚𝙧 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙢𝙤𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙤𝙛 𝙊𝙡𝙚𝙠𝙨𝙖𝙣𝙙𝙧 𝙐𝙨𝙮𝙠 🇺🇦 believes the world heavyweight champion should follow the lead of the division’s previous peerless king, 𝙇𝙚𝙣𝙣𝙤𝙭 𝙇𝙚𝙬𝙞𝙨 🇬🇧, and walk away at the top.

𝘼𝙡𝙚𝙭 𝙆𝙧𝙖𝙨𝙨𝙮𝙪𝙠, who up until this year was 𝙐𝙨𝙮𝙠’𝙨 promoter and remains close with the 38-year-old, said there is no reason for a fight with 𝙁𝙖𝙗𝙞𝙤 𝙒𝙖𝙧𝙙𝙡𝙚𝙮 🇬🇧, now the consensus leading contender following Saturday’s victory over 𝙅𝙤𝙨𝙚𝙥𝙝 𝙋𝙖𝙧𝙠𝙚𝙧 🇳🇿.

🗣️ “𝙄 𝙖𝙢 𝙥𝙪𝙗𝙡𝙞𝙘 𝙞𝙣 𝙢𝙮 [𝙤𝙥𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙤𝙣], 𝙄 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙐𝙨𝙮𝙠 𝙩𝙤 𝙧𝙚𝙩𝙞𝙧𝙚 𝙖𝙨 𝙛𝙖𝙨𝙩 𝙖𝙨 𝙥𝙤𝙨𝙨𝙞𝙗𝙡𝙚,” Krassyuk told Boxing King Media. “𝙄 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙣 𝙖𝙜𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙨𝙩 𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙛𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 [𝘿𝙖𝙣𝙞𝙚𝙡] 𝘿𝙪𝙗𝙤𝙞𝙨 🇬🇧, 𝙗𝙪𝙩 𝙤𝙠𝙖𝙮, 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙢𝙖𝙙𝙚 𝙨𝙤𝙢𝙚 𝙨𝙚𝙣𝙨𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙗𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙧𝙚𝙚-𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙚 𝙪𝙣𝙙𝙞𝙨𝙥𝙪𝙩𝙚𝙙.”

𝙐𝙨𝙮𝙠 🇺🇦 won that fight emphatically in five rounds atop a huge event at Wembley Stadium. There has been plenty of speculation about what comes next for the two-division champion but 𝙆𝙧𝙖𝙨𝙨𝙮𝙪𝙠, who continues to work closely with 𝙐𝙨𝙮𝙠 on the fighter’s other business interests, remains steadfast in his belief that his friend should leave the fighting behind — particularly if his leading challenger is 𝙒𝙖𝙧𝙙𝙡𝙚𝙮, a fighter Krassyuk believes is not well-known enough to generate a fitting purse.

🗣️ “𝙂𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙢𝙚 𝙤𝙣𝙚 – 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙩𝙬𝙤, 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙧𝙚𝙚 – 𝙗𝙪𝙩 𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙤𝙣 𝙩𝙤 𝙛𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙒𝙖𝙧𝙙𝙡𝙚𝙮,” Krassyuk went on. “With all respect to this guy, with all the credit to him, but I am thinking from Usyk’s perspective.

Even money is not the reason – unless a miracle happens and the magician comes in the helicopter with all the money and distributes it to try and conquer the land of boxing and paying, I don’t know, 50 million to Usyk. Then it might make sense.

Otherwise, it does not make sense. Why should he risk everything that he gained over the last 13 years? If he loses, people will remember his loss only. 𝙇𝙚𝙣𝙣𝙤𝙭 𝙇𝙚𝙬𝙞𝙨 🇬🇧 is the best role model for this; it is better to leave one hour [early] than two minutes [too late].**

“I am on the same page as many people who think about this strategically. The status of Usyk being undisputed, and being unbeaten, will stay with him until the end of his days.”

Krassyuk inferred that 𝙐𝙨𝙮𝙠 🇺🇦, a devoted family man, would struggle to find the motivation for a challenge like 𝙒𝙖𝙧𝙙𝙡𝙚𝙮 🇬🇧 at this point in his decorated career.

🗣️ “If [Usyk] has the motivation to get up at 5 o’clock in the morning, train three times, be away from his family for three or four months, to work hard, then probably yes, it makes sense [to continue fighting]. But will it bring him what he’s expecting to [earn]?

Again, with all respect to Fabio Wardley, he is not a big name, it will be a fight between Usyk and an opponent, not generating [enough money at the] gate and Usyk taking a hard, stupid risk. It makes no sense.

This is not me being an advisor or anything like that, it is just my way of thinking.”

FURY vs. USYK TRILOGY 👀

Queensberry promoter Frank Warren revealed that Tyson Fury is more interested in a trilogy fight with undisputed heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk than a potential showdown with Anthony Joshua.

When I was young, I used to think that all uncles had a lot of money,
Until I became one.😁😂
