Undisputed heavyweight champion of professional boxing Alexander Usyk responded to his former rival Tyson Fury on social networks, reported sportal.bg.
Fury posted a video showing him training with his team-mates and said the Ukrainian must also train hard for their return leg. The second fight between the two giants in the heavyweight division is expected to take place in December 2024.
Usyk, who is currently in Paris to support Ukrainian boxers during the Olympic tournament, replied that he prefers to rest now, but the Gypsy King must continue to train hard.
“Hey friend with a greedy belly, keep working out. I'm resting bro. I know you train hard. That's good, I appreciate it! Thank you so much, greedy belly! You are my friend!”, the Ukrainian said on Instagram.
At the end of last week, the Olympic champion from London 2012 also published a video in which he is seen having fun in the stands of the London "O2 Arena" during a boxing gala that was headlined by Derek Chisora and Joe Joyce.
