Team director Oleksandr Usyk Serhii Lapin commented on a possible match between the Ukrainian and former champion Deontay Wilder:
“Negotiations and discussions are taking place, but so far no final decisions have been made and nothing has been signed. We act calmly and professionally. When everything is agreed, it will be officially announced.”
We’re only looking at the biggest and most logical options – fights that really make an event, not just another name.
Several top heavyweights are in the conversation, but the shortlist varies based on belts, terms, dates and broadcast structure. Our position is simple: if it’s going to be a fight, it has to be a big one,” Lapin said.
