Pambano limepangwa kufanyika kwenye Uwanja wa Wembley, Aprili 29, 2023 lakini halitakuwepo baada ya Oleksandr Usyk kumtupia lawama Fury.

Timu ya Usyk imedai licha ya Fury kunufaika katika mgawanyo wa malipo kwa asilimia 70-30 lakini ametoa masharti mengi ambayo yameonekana kumkwaza Usyk anayeshikilia mikanda ya WBA, WBO na IBF ya uzito wa juu.

Pamoja na hivyo, Frank Warren ambaye ni promota wa Fury amedai kuwa wanaendelea na mazungumzo na inawezekana ndani ya sa 24 zitajazo watafikia muafaka

Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk's fight at Wembley on April 29 is OFF, claims the Ukrainian's manager, as he blames the Gypsy King for 'pushing for more' despite agreeing 70-30 split

The undisputed heavyweight clash between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk set for April 29 at Wembley in London has fallen through, according to the Ukrainian's manager.

'No matter how much Usyk compromised, he was pushed for more,' Egis Klimas said, reported first by Steve Kim.

There has been a long-standing war of words between the two camps, and while a date of April 29 has been discussed for a mammoth meeting, nothing had been confirmed.

Frank Warren, Fury's promoter, is hopeful that a deal can be resurrected in the next 24 hours but the likelihood is that this late disagreement could be fatal.

Last week, the Gypsy King insisted that the bout was definitely on, and that he had entered a social media blackout during training for the fight.

But the Ukrainian's manager and long-time advisor Klimas issued a firm take-it-or-leave-it declaration to Fury's team, and that if the fight does not happen, Usyk will pivot to a mandatory defense of his WBA title against Daniel Dubois.

Fury and Usyk did reach an agreement on the 70/30 purse split in favour of the Gypsy King but other material terms could not be decided on, according to ESPN.

The report claims the 35-year-old Ukrainian has stopped his training camp. WBA president Gilberto Mendoza previously set a deadline of April 1 for the fight to be made so the teams are running out of time for an agreement, if one can be struck.

Fans have been desperate to see the two heavyweights meet in what would be an enormous unification bout.

Usyk holds the WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight titles having defended them most recently against Anthony Joshua and Fury is the WBC champion.

The WBA is likely to order Usyk to fight Dubois if no resolution can be found between both camps in the near future.

It had looked as though a bout between the pair was edging ever closer to an announcement.

Fans on social media were excited by Warren teasing: 'Arsenal are eight points clear, and even bigger news to come!'
