The highly anticipated rematch between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk is finally here.
Fury and Usyk faced off in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia back in May with the later claiming victory via a split decision.
The loss was Fury's first in 36 fights and saw Usyk claim the WBC belt to add to his WBA, IBF and WBO titles, making him the undisputed world heavyweight champion.
The pair will face off again tonight (Saturday, December 21) with all titles up for grabs - excluding the IBF title which was stripped from the Usyk and awarded to Daniel Dubois (who defended it in October with a fifth-round knockout of Anthony Joshua).
REPEAT or REVENGE⁉️
