Oleksandr Usyk vows to retire unless Tyson Fury fights him for undisputed title

Oleksandr Usyk called out Tyson Fury for a £200million undisputed fight - and insisted he will quit if the Brit avoids him.

Usyk outpointed Anthony Joshua in their heavyweight rematch to retain his three world titles in the desert of Saudi Arabia but he remains one short of the collection as he attempts to repeat the feat he achieved at cruiserweight. To win all four belts, he will have to tempt Fury out of his so-called retirement for a fight which could be worth up to £100m to both undefeated fighters.

Fury has until Friday to decide whether he will keep hold of his WBC belt or accept a fight with Usyk which would likely be held in the Middle East at the end of the year. And following his win over Joshua, Usyk said: "I want to fight him and if I am not fighting Tyson Fury, I am not fighting at all. Only God knows whether I will fight him or not, but all these gentlemen here around me, my team, they are going to help me."
