The rematch between Oleksandr Usik and Tyson Fury will take place on December 21 in Saudi Arabia
The official promotional video for the rematch between the holder of the WBC, IBO, WBA and WBO heavyweight titles has been presented Alexander Usik (22-0, 14 KOs) and former WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs).
Throughout the video, both boxers see images of each other in the surroundings, but it all came down to the fact that Usik and Fury challenged each other to a repeat fight, where they again had to determine the strongest.
Let us remember that on the night of May 18-19, Usik inflicted the first defeat in his professional career on Tyson in a fight that took place at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh (Saudi Arabia). The victory was awarded to the Ukrainian by a split decision: 115-112, 113-114 and 114-113.
An agreement has been concluded between Usik and Fury for a re-fight. The “Gypsy King” has officially activated the rematch option.
The second fight between Alexander and Tyson will take place on December 21, 2024 in Riyadh (Saudi Arabia). WBC President Mauricio Sulaiman said he would seek the introduction of video replays in this fight.
At the end of October, the first press conference and duel of the boxers’ views took place in London. Usik appeared in public to the song “Ave Maria” in the extravagant image of the hero of the computer game series Hitman. Fury came out to the song “Barbie Girl.” The event was hosted by legendary ring announcer Michael Buffer.
