Usyk open to joining Dana White’s boxing league

Oleksandr Usyk has shared his thoughts on the new boxing league created by Dana White and Turki Alalshikh. The league aims to bring a UFC-style model to boxing and will feature major fights, including a highly anticipated matchup between Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford this September. Usyk, the current heavyweight champion, expressed support for the new initiative. He described it as an "amazing" idea that could benefit the sport. He mentioned that although he hasn't received an invitation to join the league, he would seriously consider it if one comes his way. Currently, Usyk has the freedom to negotiate fights without being tied to a specific promoter. His team has successfully arranged significant bouts against top fighters like Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury. With the announcement of the TKO league, Usyk becomes a key target for White's new venture. At 37 years old, Usyk intends to fight two more times before retiring. He has been ordered by the WBO to defend his title against Joseph Parker, but he is also interested in a fight against Daniel Dubois for an undisputed championship. Dubois' promoter, Frank Warren, is eager to arrange this match. He believes it would be a massive event, possibly at Wembley Stadium. The boxing community is hopeful that these exciting matchups will be confirmed soon.
