Tyson Fury says he’s ready to face Oleksandr Usyk for the undisputed heavyweight championship of the world, sending out an aggressive message to the Ukrainian he calls a “middleweight.” “Usyk, middleweight, you say you want the WBC (belt) … it’s held by the ‘Gypsy King,’ and it’s held tightly, grasped tight,” Fury said on social

Undisputed lightweight titleholder Devin Haney is still letting off shots on Twitter, most recently taking aim at Showtime Sports executive Stephen Espinoza.

A week after receiving a stateside broadcast, Joe Joyce vs Joseph Parker got some extra stakes last night when the WBO officially sanctioned it as an interim title fight, citing the ongoing negotiations for Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk and the Joes’ status as the top two heavyweight contenders. Nothing technically changes about the fight

Things have not been going well for Eddie Hearn of late vis-à-vis light heavyweight contender Joshua Buatsi. First, the WBA smacked down Hearn’s attempt to have Buatsi leapfrog Zurdo Ramirez for a crack at Dmitry Bivol, forcing Matchroom to focus instead on an ordered IBF eliminator against Jean Pascal.

Former cruiserweight champion Mairis Briedis will take on an unbeaten Australian standout in his next fight, but not the one you probably expected.
