The two heavyweights will meet for second time later this year.

Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk produced one of, if not the biggest fight of the year when they met for the undisputed heavyweight championship on May 18. 

Usyk was declared the winner by split decision after dominating the second half of the contest, and even came close to stopping Fury in the ninth round. 

As expected, there was a rematch clause which has been activated and the two fighters will meet for a second time on December 21 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

Preparations in Fury's camp are already underway with the former WBC heavyweight champion returning to training in a post on social media, and his cutman, Jorge Capetillo has explained what Fury needs to do if he wants to get revenge. 

"I think the pace, keep his hands up a little bit more, sit a little bit more and not jump too much. He can walk in instead of jumping and start boxing more, because he’s too big and heavy," Capetillo told Betway

"You can jump for a couple of seconds but not for a couple of rounds. He needs to box more, keep his guard up and keep it tight.

"He’s the bigger man and he needs to push back Usyk. He was being efficient when he was pushing him back because he’s the bigger man."
