Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury will collide again on December 21st.
The Ukrainian claimed Fury’s WBC title in May to become the first undisputed heavyweight champion since 1999 when Lennox Lewis achieved the feat.
But, the rematch will not be for undisputed glory after Usyk vacated the IBF title and the organisation elevated Daniel Dubois from interim to full champion.
Usyk’s trainer has teased that after the fight with ‘The Gypsy King’ that he could then make a switch to bare knuckle fighting.
