Fury vs Usyk preview
Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk have proved themselves to be the cream of the heavyweight crop over the last few years, and their meeting today in Riyadh to decide the first undisputed champ since Lennox Lewis has been long awaited.
It seems a lifetime ago that Fury shocked the world to defeat Wladimir Klitschko and become a world champion for the first time. Since then he has retired, unretired, completed fight trilogies with Deontay Wilder and Derek Chisora, battled his demons and generally entertained as the self-proclaimed Gypsy King.
Overcoming Usyk today will be his toughest challenge yet. Yes, the Ukrainian cedes a 7-inch reach and half a foot in height to the giant Fury, but he has shown that his skill and speed can be way too much for bigger men to handle. He schooled Anthony Joshua over two fights to take his WBA, IBF and WBO titles having stepped up from his more natural cruiserweight.
In this guide, you'll discover all you need to know to watch Fury vs Usyk live streams, no matter where in the world you are this weekend. We also have information on all the PPV prices around the globe, start time, Saturday's full card and more.
Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk news and odds
The bookies are showing Fury as the favorite – but only just. As of 8pm BST, Bet365 has him at 4/5, with Usyk at 11/10. In other words, there's very little in it.
The fight is odds-on to go all 12 rounds, which is something that everyone who stumps up for a PPV can get on board with, but that means that a knockout for either fighter is being seen as a relative long shot, at 6/1.
The action is officially underway at Kingdom Arena, and lo and behold, nobody on the undercard has come a cropper on the canvas seam yet. We'll be sure to keep a close eye on the offending stitch throughout.
