Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk undisputed fight could face further delay

Tyson Fury's cousin and coach Andy Lee fears that his undisputed heavyweight title clash with Oleksandr Usyk may not happen "any time soon" after a number of delays to the fight date.

Fury and Usyk had discussed a potential February meeting after the Brit's win over Derek Chisora in December, but that has been pushed back on numerous occasions with April 29 now looking like the favoured date. However, even that has yet to be formally announced, and Lee believes the bout may be "too good to be true".

A former world champion, Lee is no stranger to major title bouts and has cornered Fury for some of his most famous nights, including his second world title win over Deontay Wilder. And while he's confident of a victory should the Usyk bout happen, he's concerned that it could prove another in a string of unfulfilled major world title bouts.
