WBC supports the idea of Usik vs. Fury fight

WBC president Mauricio Sulaimán said the organization would support a fight between WBA, IBF, WBO and IBO heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk and WBC champion Tyson Fury.

"If we can get this fight, it would be amazing for everyone, including the WBC. Now is the right time for this fight," Suleiman said.

The 35-year-old Usyk had his last fight this August against Anthony Joshua. The fight went the full distance and Usyk won by split decision. He scored 20 wins (13 KOs) without a single loss.

The 34-year-old Fury, in April, 2022, defeated Dillian Whyte by TKO in the sixth round. He has 32 wins (23 by knockout) and no losses.
