ESPN have claimed that the tentative plan for the Fury-Usyk fight to take place is in June, with fans set to wait a few more months for the highly anticipated contest.
The fight was initially set to take place on December 23, but was delayed after Fury struggled to defeat Ngannou in October. Fury was dropped in the third round before recovering to win on points.
Fury had been questioned over rumours that he had been struggling in his training camp, having been below-par against Ngannou. He had been accused of getting dropped by former cruiserweight world champion Jai Opetaia, which was denied.
