Usyk’s wife Katerina mocks Anthony Joshua,Tyson fury.

Date:

The saying in some quarters that it is men that do the fighting while women narrate the story came to the fore as Oleksandr Usyk’s wife, Katerina, took to her instagram to ridicule Nigeria born British pugilist Anthony Joshua and other boxers who have been knocked down by her husband.

Katerina, offered a warning to Tyson Fury as talks continue over a unification fight.

She posted a meme on Instagram showing the Ukrainian world champion as the Grim Reaper, with blood flowing from three open doors bearing the faces of Anthony Joshua Derek Chisora and Tony Bellew, Usyk’s three British opponents to date.

The 36-year-old has won all four of his fights against Brits to date, most recently defeating Joshua for the second time in August.

On the right of the image, Usyk is knocking on a fourth door, which is closed and bares Fury’s face.

It comes after a series of unusual demands from Fury that have led some to wonder if the fight will take place at all.

Fury has gone back and forth with Usyk on social media over the past week as they look to finalise their potential mega-fight, which will crown the first undisputed king of the division in over two decades.

Despite holding three of the four recognised heavyweight titles, Usyk was offered a questionable financial split of 30 per cent by Fury last week, but he quickly accepted those terms on the condition that his rival donates £1million to his native Ukraine.

The Gypsy King responded on Monday by calling for the rematch clause included in their fight contract to be removed, which left Usyk’s promoter Alexander Krassyuk furious.

Krassyuk accused Fury of moving the goalposts because he is ‘scared’ of his man, while expressing fears that their undisputed battle will not happen.

Yet in a video message on Tuesday night, Fury revealed his training camp officially begins on Wednesday as the April 29 date at Wembley is ‘definitely a worker’.

He said in the message: ‘Hi guys, as fun as it’s been over the last few days terrorising Usyk and his team, tomorrow I’m gonna knuckle down into training camp and I’ll be doing a blackout as I always do on social media.

‘Nav will be running my Instagram account, keeping it all updated on my training progress and how it’s all going.

‘April 29 is definitely a worker, I will see you all on the night. Tune in, or be there or be square. This is the biggest fight in British boxing history, the fight of the century.
