Usyk vs Fury 2 is almost here, Oleksandr Usyk vs Tyson Fury – aka Reignited – for the undisputed world heavyweight title is set to be one of the fights of 2024. Usyk came out on top when these two last met in May, so Fury will be seeking revenge in Riyadh tonight. This is one of the biggest PPV fights in history
Seven months on from their titanic tussle to decide the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world, Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury are ready to do it all again. Usyk triumphed by split decision last time out and the Ukrainian fighter is considered the favorite to emerge victorious in this pre-Christmas bout.
That was Fury's first ever defeat and it would be unwise to write him off. The Gypsy King has the size advantage and his mental resilience will come in handy at the Kingdom Arena.
The Cat, who is defending the WBA, WBC, and WBO titles, is an intelligent boxer who knows his way around the ring. He executed his game plan to perfection in May and will now be targeting a second victory over Fury – and a shot at the IBF title.

A mere seven months after Oleksandr Usyk narrowly outpointed Tyson Fury to become the first undisputed heavyweight boxing champion in 24 years, the two fighters return to Saudi Arabia this Saturday for a much anticipated rematch.
Since that first encounter Usyk has had to give up his IBF belt, meaning only three titles are being put on the line by the unbeaten Ukrainian fighter this time out.
That split decision loss back in May marked the first time Fury had tasted defeat after 16 years as a professional. The British fighter will be determined to get revenge on Saturday, with a win for the "Gypsy King" likely to pave the way for an all-British match-up with either Daniel Dubois or Anthony Joshua.
Seven months ago, Usyk narrowly outpointed Fury to become the first undisputed heavyweight champion in 24 years. And while the Ukrainian soon gave up the IBF belt, meaning only three of the four major titles are on the line this time, Fury will still be desperate for revenge.
The Briton’s loss to Usyk was the first of his professional career, while Usyk’s split-decision win kept him unbeaten. However, Fury has a strong record in rematches: after points wins over Derek Chisora and John McDermott and a draw with Deontay Wilder, the “Gypsy King” stopped each man the second time around – and third, in the cases of Wilder and Chisora.
So, fans expect another close affair in Saudi Arabia. Yet Usyk, 37, is the favourite ahead of this rematch – having come close to stopping Fury, 36, in round nine in May.
Usyk was stripped of the IBF championship for moving ahead with his contractually obligated rematch with Fury, though the lack of one of the four world titles from the first meeting has done nothing to diminish the excitement or importance of this rematch.
The first meeting was the first time Fury had suffered defeat as a professional, having gone undefeated across 35 previous bouts that also saw him twice reign as world champion. Fury started that fight well, using his size and reach to keep the much smaller Usyk at range. Fury was so comfortable in the early rounds that he repeatedly danced and showboated, seemingly feeling he had the fight in hand.
Usyk was able to make the necessary adjustments as the fight wore on and not only started to successfully use his boxing skills, but also scored a knockdown in Round 9. A perfect left hook landed on Fury and the following flurry from Usyk sent Fury's 6-foot-9 frame stumbling into the corner where it was ruled the ropes had held him up and thus counted as a knockdown.
Oleksandr Usyk defends his unified heavyweight titles and lineal crown against Tyson Fury at Kingdom Arena in a rematch of May's closely contested undisputed title fight. Usyk claimed victory in the first fight by split decision after 12 highly competitive rounds, becoming the first undisputed heavyweight champion since 1999.
Having previously been undisputed champion at cruiserweight, Usyk became the third fighter in the four-belt era to become undisputed champion in two weight classes, handing Fury his first career loss in the process. The rematch will be for the WBC, WBA and WBO heavyweight titles, with Usyk having vacated the IBF belt over the summer and Daniel Dubois being elevated to champion.
