"Fans Make Fun of You": Krassyuk Criticizes Fury's Attitude

Alex Krassyuk, promoter of WBA, WBO, and IBF heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk, has voiced his criticism of Tyson Fury, the WBC titleholder. He argues that Fury's unpredictable behavior and disregard for his opponents could result in difficulties securing future matches.

"Tyson Fury seems to me like a random thought generator. It's disappointing to see a fighter of his stature grapple with frustration. Fury is in search of an opponent but can't find one. From his perspective, he's the king of the world, but no one is stepping up to challenge him. Is it because he's so big? So powerful? That everyone is scared of him? No, there's another reason," Krassyuk stated.

Krassyuk highlighted that professional boxing is a commercial sport and that boxers should be adequately compensated for their performances. "If you opt to battle second- or third-tier boxers for a lesser fee, your fans will begin to disdain you. You're not showcasing your true ability, you're just proving it in the media, not in the ring. That's an issue."

Krassyuk urged Fury to reevaluate his approach to boxing. "If he wants his fans to witness him in major fights, he should show respect to others, particularly those who face him in the ring. Otherwise, he risks being forgotten in boxing history," Krassyuk commented for Seconds Out.
