In a year of major fights, Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk have saved the best for last. Fury, the WBC heavyweight champion, signed to meet Usyk, the IBF-WBA-WBO champion, for the undisputed heavyweight title as early as Dec. 23 or perhaps in January in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Fury has an Oct. 28 pay-per-view bout in Riyadh against former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou that will serve as a good tune-up for the event boxing fans have been hoping to see since Usyk upset Anthony Joshua to become unified champion.
Usyk is 21-0 after knocking out Daniel Dubois in the ninth round on Aug. 26 in Wroclaw, Poland. He is a former undisputed cruiserweight champion and won his belts by winning a decision over Joshua in London on Sept. 25, 2021. He defeated Joshua in a rematch on Aug. 20, 2022, in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
