“This is the most significant fight at the moment in the heavyweight division,” said Warren. “It’s the best one out there. These two guys have stepped up, neither of them needed to make this fight. Joe Parker is the WBO interim champion and they’ve already ordered that Usyk has to defend his belt against him but Usyk is injured. Joe said he wants to fight anyway and Fabio is also in a fabulous position and he only had to wait his time and he would have got a crack at it and he said, ‘No, I want to fight as well,’ and not only that, ‘I want to fight Joe Parker because it gives me the chance to jump the queue.’ And you’ve got to take your hat off to them, they’re fighting men… Mr Usyk has said he will take that fight early next year, so that is the prize. It’s all or nothing for the winner.”
