Would be gutted if this happens, although it will be funny seeing Tabiti get ktfo. Just hope the fans don't turn on the WBSS, **** happens. WBSS is a great initiative and I think it's the best thing to happen in boxing for a long time.
I don't see why you can't postpone the final and allow a keep busy fight for the non injured fighter tbh.
they need to stop doing this, they tried it with groves vs smith it defeats the whole point of the tournament
Its very important for WBSS to deliver both real finals imo. The whole thing will loses credibility if not
Usyk is actually already fit, and this is a fail by the organizers of the tournament — they are (as it seems) unable to provide a venue and the promised prize money (have no idea where to get them). The offer to have the final in Russia (unacceptable for Usyk) is not even theirs — they are lucky to have it, in fact.
And both are moving up to heavyweight after the tournament so we are going to see the 2 best of the division move up before even fighting eachover.
