According to Frank Warren, Oleksandr Usyk is looking forward to the world heavyweight title clash between Daniel Dubois and Joseph Parker on February 22.

Usyk was present with Dubois and Parker at the Ring Awards in London on Saturday, where he allegedly revealed his plans to Warren.

Ben Shalom insists Conor Benn’s financial demands were a key obstacle to finalizing his fight with Chris Eubank Jr.

Shalom, Eubank Jr’s promoter, is in negotiations with Benn’s promoter Eddie Hearn to secure a realigned showdown between the British rivals.

The pair were scheduled to meet in October 2022, but the catchweight bout was postponed until fight week after Benn failed a drug test.

“The Destroyer” was released by National Anti-Doping Panelwho lifted the suspension, after which negotiations resumed for a pointed fight with Eubank Jr, as a result of which Benn jumped two weight classes to middleweight.

The main point of contention apparently was the financial demands of both players, with Benn’s team demanding a 50-50 split.

Shalom said last month that he convinced Eubank Jr. to accept a 55-45 split in his favor, and the BOXXER promoter claims that Benn is demanding whatever amount Anthony Joshua will be able to make.

“Getting Conor to understand that he is not Anthony Joshua,” Shalom said The boxing scene.

“I think Conor needs to be talked into some sense.

“If it was Chris Eubank Jr three or four years ago, probably when he was more hotheaded, he actually took a pretty reasonable, mature approach to this whole thing.

“I really believe in it. It’s just about getting the other side to do it too. I think it will be implemented.”

Shalom said Professional boxing fans on Wednesday that the two sides are close to reaching an agreement, and if an agreement is reached, the fight is expected to take place in April.

A fight with WBA middleweight Erislandy Lara has been lined up for Eubank Jr in case a deal falls through, while his Essex counterpart is likely to aim for a meeting with WBC welterweight champion Mario Barrios if he is unable to face the fighter from Brighton.

“I think it will happen as long as no one does something stupid,” Shalom told professional boxing fans.

“We are now in the home phase.

“It’s like the last 100m, unless someone does something crazy, they should cross the finish line, but it has to be now because Lara is in line.

“All conditions have been described. Nobody wants to wait and everyone is ready to act.

“We know where the event will take place. We know it will take place in the UK.

“The framework is already in place and now it’s just a matter of finishing it.”
