These are two of the best of their current generation having cleared up all the belts between them in the last few years. After a long wait, the undisputed title fight finally played out in May and saw Usyk win a points decision after a close 12 rounds.
He added Fury’s WBC, Lineal and Ring Magazine titles to the WBA, WBO and IBF belts he had already won from Anthony Joshua in back-to-back victories in 2021 and 2022.
Both men have said they made mistakes in their first contest and that they will be better when the 13th round begins in December 21 in Saudi Arabia.
Speaking to Seconds Out before the first clash, he was asked what was Fury’s best asset and went with his size – but warned he would use it against him.
“His biggest asset is that he is very big. But in different circumstances, it could not be an asset as I use everything against him.”
