British boxer Tyson Fury has challenged Ukrainian world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk to a third fight.

The Briton promised to first knock out his compatriot Anthony Joshua and then beat Usyk. He says: "I want some rabbit pie."

Usyk replied that he was ready to fight at any time, in any country.

"Hello, brother, Iʼm ready anytime. Las Vegas, New York, Saudi Arabia — anywhere. Come on! A greedy stomach is my friend," Usyk said in a video message.

  • In May 2024, Oleksandr Usyk defeated Tyson Fury to become the absolute world heavyweight champion and the first absolute super heavyweight champion to hold all the belts: WBA, WBO, IBF, IBO and WBC.
  • After that, Fury called for a rematch. In December of the same year, Usyk defeated Fury for the second time and retained the world boxing title.
