Groves in the Corner: Skepticism Over May Date for Usyk-Fury!

Ex-world champ at super middleweight George Groves weighed in on the delay of the Tyson Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs) vs. Oleksandr Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs) fight for the undisputed heavyweight crown:

"Will this bout happen in May? My bet's no. Post-Ngannou tangle, I was sure Usyk wouldn't be next in line for Fury.

Chatter had it set for December 23, then pushed to February.

A nick or scrape in training? No sweat. But a gash? That's a wrench in the works, not something you patch up on the fly," Groves commented.

The clash between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury has been bumped from February 17 to May 18.
