Több hónapja megy a huzavona, hogy mikor is kerül sor a nem mindennapi összecsapásra, hiszen egy ritkán látható vitathatatlan nehézsúlyú címmérkőzésről van szó, amire a boksz világában utoljára 1999-ben volt példa. A 35 éves Tyson Fury jelenleg a WBC övet, míg a 36 éves Oleksandr Usyk a WBA, a WBO és az IBF övet birtokolja.

Mikor lesz a Tyson Fury - Oleksandr Usyk összecsapás?
Tavaly decemberre volt kitűzve a mérkőzés, ahogy Tyson Fury fogalmazott korábban, karácsonyi csodának szánták a világnak december 23-án estére. Viszont volt egy mérkőzése még az angol óriásnak Francis Ngannou ellen, ami közbeszólt a dátumba. Erősen vitatható pontozással nyert végül Fury, az amúgy inkább bemutató jellegű összecsapáson. Volt azért hangzatos tétje a meccsnek, a győztes lett a Föld legkeményebb embere.
This afternoon, for the first time in over 20 years, the world will crown an undisputed heavyweight champion. Headlining the Ring of Fire boxing event at Saudi Arabia's Kingdom Arena today is a match up between British heavyweight champion Tyson Fury and Ukrainian cruiserweight champion Oleksandr Usyk. Are you ready to tune in? If you’re looking for ways to watch this pay-per-view exclusive fight, we’ve got you covered. Here’s everything you need to know about how to watch the Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk fight, including the full fight card, how you can stream the boxing match for free and more.
After these two fights are over, the card will turn to pay-per-view on DAZN and PPV.com at 12 p.m. ET and will have a main event between Fury and Usyk to determine the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia – In the days leading up to their undisputed heavyweight title fight, Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk seemed relaxed and eager to soak up the occasion, even as their camps taunted each other and clashed.
The biggest drama came early in the week, when Fury’s father, John, headbutted a member of Usyk’s entourage. But both the fighters had stayed light-hearted throughout the build-up – good-naturedly teasing each other, and grinning and showboating in their open workouts.

Fury, who sported a flame-coloured suit and a black trilby hat, is normally a garrulous and flamboyant figure renowned for his trash talk. But the 35-year-old British boxer also had little to say on Thursday.
“I’m ready. I’ve got nothing else to say apart from I’m ready for a good fight,” he said.
“God bless him,” he added when asked if he had a message for Usyk. “I’ll say a prayer for him before the fight for us both to get out of the ring safely.”
Boxing has long frustrated fans with various belts and sanctioning bodies creating multiple champions at the same weights, and frequent disputes over money and clashing egos often prevent the best fighters from facing each other in their prime.
Although Fury vs Usyk has taken some taken to materialise and was postponed from its original date in February after Fury suffered a cut in training, the fact that a bout of this magnitude is finally happening – partly a result of growing Saudi influence in the sport – means many are billing it as the fight of this century, with the winner stepping into the ranks of the all-time greats.
On Thursday, chants by rival fans quickly petered out into the sweltering night as locals looked on quietly. Drones fizzed overhead as spotlights illuminated swirling dust, and gusts of wind buffeted the microphones on stage.
The host of the news conference tried and failed to draw more words from the fighters. When they stood for the traditional face-off, Fury refused to even look at his rival, flexing his biceps and gazing into the crowd, while Usyk stared at Fury intently, a smile playing on his lips.

“[This fight is] of monumental importance for the history of the heavyweight division, for boxing’s value,” combat sports analyst Luke Thomas told Al Jazeera a few days ahead of the fight.
“People always complain people don’t know who the champions are. Well, now they’re going to know. And they’re going to know in the most storied division in boxing.”
How they match up
Fury, who generally fights out of the orthodox stance, is a giant of a man who first became a heavyweight champion by beating Wladimir Klitschko in 2015.
The “Gypsy King” subsequently battled severe mental health issues and ballooning weight, but came back from years in the wilderness to dethrone knockout artist Deontay Wilder – beating him twice (one fight ended in a draw) in a thrilling trilogy to win and retain the WBC belt.

Fury survived a scare in his last fight against mixed martial arts (MMA) star – and novice professional boxer – Francis Ngannou, as the Gypsy King got up from being floored on his way to a split-decision win.
Usyk – a master technician and an Olympic gold medallist who usually fights southpaw – moved up to heavyweight after dominating the cruiserweight division as a unified champion. He made his heavyweight debut in 2019 and won the WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight belts in 2021 – outclassing the much bigger Anthony Joshua, whom Usyk has now beaten twice.
In his last fight, Usyk stopped Daniel Dubois in the ninth round, but it was not a totally comfortable fight for the Ukrainian, who was hurt on a couple of occasions.

Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk's fight can be live streamed at ESPN+ and DAZN.
Fury and Usyk are the two best fighters from a strong era of heavyweight boxing. Both have reached their mid-30s still undefeated, and both are determined to reach the pinnacle of their careers by winning every major title belt in their division — a feat that hasn't been accomplished since Lennox Lewis did it in 1999.
Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs) has held three of the world's major titles for nearly three years, while Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs) holds the fourth after a career in which he has worn all four championship belts at different points.

Meanwhile, Oleksandr Usyk's weight was announced incorrectly and the Ukrainian is 10 pounds lighter than stated for Saturday's heavyweight unification fight with Tyson Fury in Saudi Arabia, his promoter said.
Alex Krassyuk told Sky Sports television that the WBA, IBF and WBO champion actually weighed in at 223 pounds but was announced as 233 and a half pounds (105.9kg), the heaviest he has been in his career.
Fury, the WBC champion, tipped the scales at 262 pounds (118.8 kg).
That was lighter than the 277.7 pounds the Briton was at for his non-title fight against former UFC fighter Francis Ngannou in October, in which Fury was knocked down but won on a split decision.
