We will remind you that the fight was originally scheduled for February 17, but due to the injury the British received during one of the sparring sessions, it had to be postponed. In order to avoid another disruption of the fight, the organizers have established sanctions that will be applied to Usyk or Fury if one of them does not enter the ring on May 18. Boxers face a huge fine if they refuse to fight on the scheduled date.
