Usyk vs Fury: The clock is ticking for Tyson Fury to consent to a match for the undisputed heavyweight championship between the two, Oleksandr Usyk tweeted.
Usyk’s management is convinced that the parameters they have agreed to would only be effective for a contest on April 29, which is the preferred date for the bout.
The points for agreement were sent to Fury’s side. The deadline is set. The clock is ticking. The ball is on #Greedybelly’s side now. We did everything in our power to make it happen @Tyson_Fury

The points for the agreement were provided to Fury’s side, Usyk wrote on Twitter on Saturday night. The date is fixed. The time is running out.
“The initiative now belongs to #Greedybelly. We exerted every effort to make it happen.”
Tuesday night, Fury appeared to announce a bout was happening in an Instagram video by claiming April 29 is “absolutely a worker,” but Usyk’s promoter Alexander Krassyuk expressed his anger with the delays in announcing the fight exclusively to Sky Sports News.
Krassyuk claimed the British fighter is “pretending” to practise and declared he “would be astonished” if the fight took place in April.
He said, “We’ve been bargaining for so long. We went over every issue, no matter how minor, how huge, or how complex.
“Thus, everything has already been completed. Actually, it was completed a few weeks ago. Tyson’s approval, though, was the only item that was still pending. Even if he claims to be prepared and to be in training.
“That doesn’t seem credible, but that doesn’t change the fact.”
Fury, in a video broadcast to his Instagram accounts on Tuesday night, had said: “Hello everyone, as much fun as it has been the past few days terrorising Usyk and his team, I’m going to get down to business in training camp tomorrow, therefore I’ll be going dark on social media as usual.
“Nav (Salimian) will manage my Instagram account and inform you all of my training progress and general situation.
“The 29th of April is unquestionably a working day; I’ll see you all that evening.
“Be there or be square: tune in. The bout of the century, this is the biggest event in British boxing history.
“The undisputed global heavyweight championship is on the line as two unbeaten world heavyweight champions square off to determine who is the best in the division.
“Good luck with your training, Usyk, and may the strongest man prevail.”
