Fury and Usyk are set for a showdown in Saudi Arabia in a few weeks' time for a fight a long time in the making. The heavyweight division has not seen a unified world champion since Lennox Lewis reigned supreme between November 1999 and April 2000.
Fury was floored in the third round by former UFC heavyweight champion Ngannou on the Cameroonian's professional boxing debut in October before winning via a contentious split decision to remain undefeated.

He's got a good chin, recovers and won the fight.
