A historic revenge for heavyweight supremacy. Seven months after their first fight, Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk will once again enter the ring, Saturday December 21, in Riyadh (Saudi Arabia). Last May 19, already in the Saudi capital, the Ukrainian took the scalp of the Briton by a split decision from the judges, after a twelve-round “fight of the century”.
He became the first unified heavyweight champion since Lennox Lewis 25 years ago. Seven months later, the native of Simferopol still has a perfect record of 22 victories. A record which is no longer without defeat for the Gypsy King. On Saturday, Fury hopes to erase the insult of his first career defeat. For Usyk, the equation is simple: win to establish his status as undisputed heavyweight champion.

The rematch between Fury and Usyk “Usyk-Fury 2” is announced from 11 p.m. (French time) and will be broadcast on the platform DAZN, via a pay-per-viewpriced at 19.99 euros in France.
