OLKSANDR USYK to return in 2026? Frank Warren “very much” doubts an undisputed hero who will fight again this year Boxing news

The promoter Frank Warren says Oleksandr USyk is not expected to fight again this year.

This means that Joseph Parker, the mandatory competitor of WBO, is one of the four world championships that Usyk holds, is likely to fight the next Fabio Wardley.

Warren told Sky Sports.

“Will he fight before the end of the year? I doubt it a lot.”

Wardley and Parker, holders of temporary title belts for WBA and WBO, respectively, hold talks to the two squares in O2 Arena in London on October 25.

“We are about to announce a big battle, in addition to two others,” Warren said.

“We are talking about a few heavy offers that we are working on now, and we hope to be in a very soon position, and it should be very close because we are looking for someone in October.”

It is a sign that, instead of waiting for USyk, Parker and Wardley ready to risk its noble global classifications in a battle against each other.

“This says a lot about them, but this happens in this heavyweight section. The fighters fight each other, and no one is winning anyone. They happen and we are making them happen.”

“Everyone wants to see these battles and we are working hard to present it.”

After sending Dillian Whyte with mercy, Moses ITAUMA is the rising star in the heavyweight section. Only 20 years old, he has already been classified in WBO and WBA classifications behind Parker and Wardley, although it is not expected to win any of the next man.

“He will fight before the end of the year.” “There are great expectations from it. I still reduce it all because of his age and whatever.

“This young man, 13 fights and not great bouts, so he did a very good job.

“(Inevitably) will fight in a really big battle and we will see what is going on around it.”
