Robert Garcia Doubts Fury's Cut Will Heal in Time

American trainer Robert Garcia harbors doubts that the cut Tyson Fury sustained, postponing his face-off with Oleksandr Usyk, will heal in time.

"If you're postponing the fight by a couple of months after such a cut, there might not be enough time. The cut looks quite large and deep in the photos. I don't know if it will heal by May, but I hope we get to see this fight.

Boxing needs this bout. It's been a while since we had an undisputed champion in the heavyweight division," Garcia said.

The fight was moved from February 17th to May 18th due to the cut the Brit received during sparring.
