Tyson Fury's potential upcoming fight against Oleksandr Usyk has already invoked mass excitement as the two best heavyweight boxers in the world look set to go toe-to-toe against each other in the New Year.
It became apparent soon after Fury, who toyed with and beat long-time pal Derek Chisora within 10 rounds at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium at the start of the month, should have been hunting bigger fish to fry at the peak of his powers and surpassing a reputation that the heavyweight boxing world has not seen over the past decade.
That would start with a potential bout against Usyk or Anthony Joshua, and even though a potential date with the latter has been touted for the last five or so years, reports now suggest that due to AJ's loss against Usyk back in August, a fight with the Ukrainian is closer and a bout may take place in early March.
