The head of the UFC Dana White shared his opinion about the hype around the fight between WBA, WBO and IBF champion Alexander Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) and WBC belt holder Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs).
Is this fight scheduled or not? Oh, not assigned? Welcome to the world of boxing guys. Is it shocking? Yes. But is it really a shock? No. It’s just boxing, in this sport everything always goes like this.
The big fights that should take place never happen. And when they are satisfied, it is always too late. These things drive me crazy as a fan. Therefore, I created my company so that this would not happen in it. We try to put on big fights when the time comes for them. Think about this: today in one of the prelims we saw a duel between fighters with records of 11-0 and 10-0 [Лерон Мерфи и Габриэль Сантос]. And this is a preliminary card! Name me at least one show in any organization where two such guys would fight. Technically, this fight was incredible, right? You do not always see this, only with us. This is how our company was born,” White said.
