Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk: Who Has Earned More In Their Last 10 Fights?
The British heavyweight is deemed as one of the best heavyweights to ever lace a pair of gloves, boasting an undefeated record of 34-0-1. His resume is equally as impressive, with wins over the likes of Deontay Wilder, Wladimir Klitschko and most recently Francis Ngannou.
Similarly, Oleksandr Usyk has dominated the sport alongside his British counter-part, winning the undisputed titles at cruiserweight and now aiming to replicate that feat at heavyweight. He also holds an undefeated record (21-0) and recently beat two Englishmen in his last three fights – Daniel Dubois last time and Anthony Joshua back-to-back prior to that.
Riyadh was supposed to take centre stage in Saudi Arabia on February 17th, with the world waiting to see who will come out on top in the juggernaut heavyweight clash. However, the bout has been postponed due to Fury suffering a bad cut above his eye.
