Tyson Fury

The highly anticipated undisputed heavyweight title fight between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk is set to take place on May 18, after being rescheduled due to Fury sustaining a cut above his eye in sparring. This fight will be historic as it marks the first unified heavyweight championship in over two decades and the first of the 'four-belt era.'

Frank Warren, Fury's co-promoter, is confident that the fight will proceed as planned on the new date, emphasizing the determination of both fighters to compete for undisputed status. Warren believes that cuts and blood can heal quickly, and if Fury is confident in his recovery, then he is confident too. With governing bodies pressuring for the belts to be fought for, it is crucial that the fight happens on the specified date, and Warren is optimistic that it will.
