Tyson Fury has admitted time is running out for a potential July return following the collapse of his undisputed fight against Oleksandr Usyk.
Fury was expected to face fellow heavyweight champion Usyk last month but the fight collapsed after both parties failed to reach an agreement. 'The Gypsy King' has since been linked to a fight against Zhilei Zhang or Andy Ruiz Jr in July, with Ruiz seemingly confirming the fight will take place on July 22 in the UK but no official announcement has yet been made.
With just over two months to go until the pencilled-in fight date, Fury recognises the clock is ticking as he told The Evening Standard: “One thing I can say is, if they’re going to do something [in July] then they better get their finger out. Time is ticking. They better hurry up, we’re in May now.”
