Tyson Fury takes on Oleksandr Usyk in the biggest heavyweight boxing fight for a generation on Saturday, May 18.
The two champions meet in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia to decide who will be crowned the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world for the first time since Lennox Lewis in 2000.
A cut sustained by the Gypsy King in training earlier this year delayed the fight but the date is now set in stone and both fighters face huge consequences should it be postponed again, making another withdrawal highly unlikely.
Fury’s last fight was a controversial win against former UFC champion Francis Ngannou, while Uysk fought off British contender Daniel Dubois.
There is a rematch clause in place meaning there could be two undisputed fights in a matter of months and the eventual champion could also face Anthony Joshua in the future.
Fury v Uysk will take place at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, with the main event ring walks scheduled from 11pm onwards.
As well as the titles, a huge amount of money will be on the line for both fighters.
