    "Most likely, I will be ready to fight by the end of June or the start of July, and [the fight] will not be Russia. Of course, it could take place in Russia, but then [the fight] would be without Olekandr Usyk," said Usyk to Ukrainian Sport.

    Usyk got jokes.

    It's a matter of politics. Ukraine vs Russia is not a good thing to happen in any country between the two.
    Hold it in England somewhere.
    If I'm a fighter and we are literally at war ,homeland wise, then I'm not risking my safety coming to your house for a "fair fight".

    If they're both serious about stepping up to heavyweight then they should hold it in the UK.

    Joshua/Whyte/Chisora/Haye/Bellew/Joyce all potential future fights for both.

    Money talks. Supposedly the "investment group" or whatever is offering millions more than the current site (is it Saudi Arabia?).

    By the standards on this forum; yes. You had a large chunk of people genuinely saying Wladimir and Vitali were ducking each other so I'd say this is a no brainer. Rocky fought an alien on Mars in Rocky XXVI, remember?

    You are not informed on world news are you?
    Take some time off and just read multiple news sources on world events. Then come back and erase this mess.
