    The pair have been given a clear path for their much-anticipated clash after the IBF stepped down on their insistence for Usyk to fight Filip Hrgovic.
    They stepped down and agreed that the the WBA mandatory, Daniel Dubois, is ahead of him in the pecking order.
    However, the British boxer is managed by Frank Warren, who is also the manager of Fury.
    This means that there will be less pressure to make Usyk’s next fight against Dubois.
    Therefore it is more likely that a clash between the Ukrainian and Fury will happen sooner. More

    KSI subsequently denied that Paul made the offer at all, with the pair quarrelling over whether he really did or not.
    The Brit then claimed: “You didn’t send me a contract.”
    Paul then damningly blasted: “You can guarantee that. You are a b**** and I hope you realise it when you look yourself in the mirror.
    “Every night you realise you are ducking me and you are scared. The best thing to ever happen to you is Prime.
    “My brother brought that to you because the Paul family brought that to you. But I’ll see you later f*** boy.”
    After the heated debate, Paul made some extra claims on social media.
    He tweeted: “I sent KSI and his team a contract over a month ago. I offered to come to the UK, 185 pounds and 10 rounds. I have been at 8 rounds since Askren.
    “He and his team have yet to respond.”
    Paul then added: “The offer was / is to come to the UK in December 2023. If he doesn’t respond next week after his show, then it’s going to have to be in the US.
    “The best part is he tells @arielhelwani that I’m hiding behind negotiations when in fact he has yet to respond. Hahaha.”

    “I mentioned at the Press Conference that Dillon was being haunted by me. He made his excuses and knew he couldn’t handle what I bring to a boxing ring,” KSI said.
    “This answers the question whether he’s a fighter or not.
    “He’s a warrior alright, a keyboard warrior, and hopefully he’s learnt to leave the real men to speak with their actions rather than hollow words.”
