"He's in no rush": Usyk's manager discusses when the Ukrainian might fight next
Oleksandr Usyk's manager, Egis Klimas, shared his thoughts on when the Ukrainian champion could return to the ring.
Details. According to Klimas, Usyk is in no hurry to step back into the gym or the ring. His next fight might take place around late July or August 2025.
Quote. "Next fight? Oh, it will require a very long preparation. After another 12 rounds with Fury, he needs proper, extended recovery.
Dubois? He needs to defeat Parker first before even thinking about Usyk," Klimas told BoxingScene.
Reminder. On December 21, the highly anticipated rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury ended with a victory for the Ukrainian.
Immediately after the fight, Daniel Dubois challenged Usyk. The Ukrainian accepted the call-out for a bout to crown the undisputed heavyweight champion.
