Fury-Usyk rematch should be cancelled - ex-world champ reveals reason

The highly anticipated rematch between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk is in jeopardy after an ex-world champion revealed a major issue that could force the fight to be postponed or even canceled.

David Haye, the former WBA heavyweight champion, has claimed that Usyk is not fit enough to fight Fury in a rematch.

Haye said that Usyk is still feeling the effects of a broken elbow injury that he sustained in his victory over Anthony Joshua in August 2022.

He said that Usyk is also struggling to make the weight limit for the rematch, which is set at 220 pounds.

Haye's comments come after reports that the rematch between Fury and Usyk is close to being finalized for March 4 in Saudi Arabia.

However, Haye's claims could throw a spanner in the works and force the fight to be postponed or even canceled.

Fury and Usyk are considered to be the two best heavyweights in the world. A rematch between them would be one of the biggest fights of the year.

But Haye's claims have cast a doubt over whether the fight will actually take place.
