Tyson Fury's US promoter Bob Arum has said that a deal for a fight against Oleksandr Usyk is agreed, with the venue the only issue left to resolve in negotiations.
The huge unification bout is expected to take place early next year, with the two undefeated heavyweight champions of the world going head to head in what will be one of the biggest battles in recent memory. The winner will have the right to be called undisputed heavyweight champion of the world, becoming the first to do so since Lennox Lewis in 1999.
Arum is a key part of negotiations and has confirmed that the fight will take place no later than March 4th, which is the date also confirmed by Oleksandr Usyk's promoters earlier this week. However, the venue will be decided before the end of the year, with multiple options on the table.
