Saudi Arabia’s capital Riyadh plays host to one of the most anticipated fights in boxing’s recent history as the two undefeated heavyweight champions Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk will finally step into the ring to decide who will become the division’s undisputed champion for the first time since the four belts are being contested (WBC, WBA, WBO, and IBF).

The bout was originally scheduled for February earlier this year but a cut from sparring forced the ‘Gypsy King’ to call for a postponement.

Ahead of the ‘Ring of Fire’ Riyadh fight, boxing experts are tipping the English fighter who offers more power with other analysts also claiming that the man from Ukraine is the smarter fighter.

Saturday’s bout in the Saudi city promises to deliver much with all four belts being on the line as both boxers endeavour to defend their undefeated status.
