Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk fight date, start time and potential undercard

Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk seem to be keen on finally having an undisputed world heavyweight title fight now that there is no red tape between the pair.

The Brit holds the WBC world heavyweight title, while Usyk has the WBO, IBF and WBA super belts, as well as the less-favoured IBO title and the more ceremonial The Ring Magazine belt. There is a belief that a bout between the pair would finally prove once and for all who the best heavyweight of the era is, particularly after they both twice beat Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua respectively.

Fury has been claiming to be retired since defeating Dillian Whyte at Wembley Stadium earlier this year, but appeared keen to fight Usyk in a video this weekend, presuming the money is right. He has previously claimed he wants around £500million to return, and while Saudi Arabian financing might not hit that magic number, there will certainly be a massive pot available for this bout.
