Negotiations, however, continued and Team Usyk has agreed to the proposed terms for the historic dust-up.

The Ukrainian’s manager Egis Klimas told SecondsOut: “Everything is done from our side – everything, absolutely.
“So, there’s only one guy who can say, ‘Yes, we’re going [ahead];’ that’s Fury.”
Usyk, 34, holds four of the heavyweight marbles following spectacular back-to-back displays against Brit Anthony Joshua.

Klimas admitted: “Size difference, of course, it’s not in Usyk’s favor.
“[Fury] is a giant. Also, he’s a good fighter. He’s a talented fighter first of all; Second, he has a good boxing IQ.

“So, he is a very, very dangerous fighter.”
Fury, 34, will defend his WBC crown at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on December 3 in a trilogy fight with fellow Brit Derek Chisora.

And Usyk has no problem rematching 38-year-old Chisora for the belts should he shock the world and dethrone The Gypsy King.

When asked about Chisora potentially throwing a spanner into the works, Klimas said: “Then we’re gonna go and unify the titles with Chisora.

“We [beat him comfortably in 2020], but again: Boxing is boxing; one time you beat them, one time you can lose, one time you can draw – and all kind of different things happen.”
Usyk was left baffled by Fury’s choice of Chisora for his voluntary defense of the WBC title.
