Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk clash again tonight
Tyson Fury is out for revenge later this evening as he looks to level the series against heavyweight rival Oleksandr Usyk.
The ‘Gypsy King’ suffered the first defeat of his professional career back in May at the hands of the Ukrainian – who secured a split decision victory in Riyadh. With two of the three judges scoring the contest in favour of Usyk, Fury will be looking to avoid leaving his fate in the hands of the officials once again.
As for Usyk, it’s a case of more of the same as he will be looking to put the rivalry to bed once and for all in Saudi Arabia. Tonight’s undercard sees some big names taking centre stage. Moses Itauma will be looking to keep his undefeated record intact when he takes on Demsey McKean. Johnny Fisher also features lower down the card as he goes glove-to-glove with the experienced Dave Allen. Here’s everything you need to know about tonight’s fights…

Tyson Fury: “
I don’t really feel nervous, but you feel – it’s not like a nervous for the fight, because obviously I’ve had a lot of fights, I’m not bothered about anybody. But you feel like you’re nervous whether you’re going to perform to your best ability or not. Does that make sense? It’s not like a pressure – oh, I’ve got to go for a fight now. It’s something I’ve always done, amateur and professional. But you feel like I need to be the best I can be. Hopefully you’re going to be good, do you know what I mean?”
Oleksandr Usyk: “I feel good. It continues, the 13th round because I feel like this. Tyson Fury too had a chance in the sixth round, maybe the seventh round, maybe 12th, 11th, first, second. But Tyson did not do it. It’s just talk. Tyson said I had the chance. Yeah, no problem. We have a second fight, I’ll try.”
