And in a bout fit for that mantle, Fury and Usyk played out a thrilling battle with both men in control and also struggling at various points in the fight.

Usyk started on top before showboating Fury won the middle rounds and appeared to be well on top.

However, a ninth-round volley saw Usyk FLOOR Fury and swing momentum back his way.

With four major world titles up for grabs both men gave it their all in one of the best fights in memory.

It went to the judges with the fight ending in a controversial split decision going in the Ukrainian’s favour –  115-112, 114-15, 114-113.

When is Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk rematch taking place?

Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk 2 will take place on Saturday, December 21.

The Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia hosts the big fight.

The ring walks are expected from around 11pm BST.

What channel will the fight be on?

• DAZN , TNT Sports and Sky Sports are likely to broadcast Fury vs Usyk once again on PPV in the UK.
• The cost is expected to be around £19.95.

Will all heavyweight titles be on the line in the rematch?

This time round, however, it will NOT be an undisputed heavyweight title fight.

This is because Usyk vacated the IBF title following his win so the mandatories for the belt could get their shot.

Daniel Dubois was upgraded to the IBF heavyweight champion, and has since defended it in dominant fashion – knocking out Anthony Joshua at Wembley Stadium in front of a British record 96,000 crowd.

So it is only Usyk’s WBA, WBC and WBO heavyweight titles up for grabs.
