Usyk Edges Fury, Rematch Hopes High Amid IBF Talks
TL;DR Summary
The IBF is considering stripping Oleksandr Usyk of his heavyweight title due to a rematch clause with Tyson Fury, which conflicts with mandatory challenger Filip Hrgovic's right to a title fight. The IBF rules allow Usyk to request an exception to keep the belt, but it remains uncertain if he will do so. The situation mirrors a previous case where the IBF stripped Terence Crawford of his welterweight title.
