Tyson Fury and his promoter Frank Warren conducted a press conference dedicated to the upcoming bout against Oleksandr Usyk.

According to the Briton, this match holds no personal animosity, merely a business endeavor for both pugilists. Fury stated that he harbors no enmity towards Usyk, and the Ukrainian reciprocates the sentiment. He is a man of faith, and the Briton holds him in esteem.

"As a pugilist, he has reigned supreme in the heavyweight division, adorned with multiple belts in the super heavyweight class. All should acknowledge and respect these achievements. A formidable pugilist, a formidable challenge for me. Yet, I remain steadfast in my abilities. It is unwarranted to denigrate him merely due to a defeat in our bout," declared Tyson Fury.

The WBC heavyweight titleholder urged journalists not to disparage Usyk should he emerge victorious over the Ukrainian.

"Please refrain from branding Usyk derogatory terms should I triumph over him. For he is not unworthy; he is the epitome of excellence in the heavyweight realm, a unified champion in the super heavyweight division," added the Gypsy King.

It is worth noting that the Ukrainian champion of WBA, WBO, and IBF, Oleksandr Usyk, continues his preparations for the encounter against WBC titleholder Tyson Fury. The Ukrainian shared a video from his training camp, showcasing an impressive form.
