Usyk and Fury will take to the ring to fight for the undisputed heavyweight championship next month.
The two heavyweights will go toe to toe as they fight for the WBC, WBA, WBO and IBF titles in May.
The winner of this bout will become the first undisputed heavyweight boxer since Lennox Lewis defeated Evander Hollyfield by unanimous decision in 1999.
The event was supposed to take place on February 17th this year, however due to a cut sustained by Fury when sparring in Saudi Arabia it had to be delayed.
Both boxers are ready to fight and a date has been set for the bout, but who will become the undisputed champion?

Fury will need to show he is better than his lackluster performance against novice Francis Ngannou recently when he won by a controversial decision against the UFC fighter turned boxer.
The Ukrainian who took three world title belts off Joshua arguably has the form going into this fight but faces an opponent who is significantly larger than him.
