Tyson Fury has blasted rival Oleksandr Usyk in a social media return rant as he pleads for the pair to meet in the ring.
The 'Gypsy King' looked set to meet fellow world champion Usyk in an undisputed clash last month, but talks failed to materialise following his public demands on social media. It was expected that Fury would instead pursue a keep-busy fight this summer after Usyk walked away from the negotiating table, with Andy Ruiz Jr and Zhilei Zhang shortlisted for the July date.
However, a fight deal with either alternative opponent has failed to come to fruition, with Fury now left without the possibility of a fight until later in the year. His promoter Bob Arum has suggested talks are now back on the table for the WBC king to meet Usyk in Saudi Arabia this December as part of a four-man tournament.
