Fans and commentators are weighing in on the huge battle this coming Saturday that will decide the undisputed heavyweight champion: Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk.
The battle is scheduled for Saturday, May 18, 2024. These two titans are creating history in Saudi Arabia because this will be the first time a unification battle would put all four heavyweight title belts on the line.
With so much on the line and two unbeaten fighters, this bout has the potential to be one of the most memorable in recent memory. Everyone in the boxing community seems to have an opinion on what will happen on Saturday, May 18th, in Saudi Arabia.
Usyk (21-0) is the current WBA, WBO, and IBF champion; the “Gypsy King” (34-0-1) adds his WBC championship to the mix. As a result, we should see the emergence of our first undisputed heavyweight champion since Lennox Lewis in 1999.
