Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk will meet at Wembley Stadium in April, with a fight for the undisputed heavyweight championship of the world.
Exclusively revealed by the Daily Mail's Jeff Powell on Monday, the UK venue has been set following a failure of Saudi Arabian authorities to show sufficient progress in the construction of the Jeddah Stadium. This means that Fury will once again defend his WBC title under the iconic Wembley arch having beaten Dillian Whyte at the home of English football on April 23 last year.
That fight was a sellout, with Fury winning via a sixth round knockout to retain his WBC and The Ring heavyweight titles. Since then, Usyk has claimed Fury's The Ring title, with his victory against Anthony Joshua in August seeing him awarded the belt following Fury's multiple hints of retirement last year.
