Tyson Fury has lashed out at Oleksandr Usyk whilst threatening to release something damaging about the Ukrainian.
Heavyweight champions Fury and Usyk are set to fight on December 23 having recently agreed to an undisputed fight after months of failed negotiations. Fury will first have to get past former UFC champion Francis Ngannou this Saturday in Saudi Arabia and is refusing to look past the Cameroonian despite his lack of boxing experience.
Usyk hinted that he might need more time to prepare for the undisputed fight but Fury's promoter Spencer Brown has dismissed those comments and insisted all signs point to a meeting before Christmas. Fury has refused to give Usyk much attention ahead of his fight against Ngannou, but he went on an X-rated rant about him whilst speaking with iFLTV.

"F*** them, why are we giving these p*****es relevance in an interview? F*** these idiots, who are they when they're at home? All of these p*****es, sausages," he said. "Usyk is a sausage, forget about him. Usyk is a little dirty slimy f*****, actually. We've got something on you, you little sausage, I'm going to release it very soon."

When asked if it was about something Usyk has said, Fury replied: "Bigger than that, much bigger. He's been on the missing list for a minute or two, the little sausage. Anyway, we know what's going on but f*** him. It's about me and Francis Nganno anyway, battle of the baddest. Baddest motherf****** on the planet, me and big Francis."
Fury seemed to be on good terms with Usyk as he invited the Ukrainian to join his family in Morecambe for a weekend away after agreeing to their fight. 'The Gypsy King' didn't want his fight with Usyk to be made official after facing Ngannou and was unhappy with the decision, admitting the announcement was out of his control.
"They’re the promoters of the event so the paymaster does what the paymaster wants. If it was up to me, I would have never, ever, ever done that, because I never count chickens before they hatch. I wasn’t happy at first for them to announce it, but there was a lot going on in the background. For me, I don’t concentrate on any other fight other than Saturday night," he said on The MMA Hour.
