After opponent Tyrone Spong has been removed, oleksandr Usyk will confront Chazz Witherspoon in his introduction on Saturday. As a result of returning an doping test, the Illinois State Athletic Commission will not permit him to take part, although unbeaten Usyk was expected to struggle Spong at the Wintrust Arena, Chicago, live on Sky Sports. Witherspoon (38-3 29 KOs), second cousin of former world averaging ruler Tim Witherspoon, is unbeaten in five decades with his

Ive won my past eight fights and I truly feel that I have been waiting in the wings for a massive opportunity like this and I am likely to put all of myself into the struggle on this enormous point Usyk debut is long-awaited after he was forced to withdraw from Carlos Takam earlier this year from his very first battle.
