The two fighters will meet in Saudi Arabia on May 18 after the original February date was postponed
All eyes will turn to Saudi Arabia next month when heavyweights Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk meet for a hugely anticipated bout which could feature a new scoring system in a bid to avoid any controversy.
Gypsy King Fury, 35, is undefeated so far in his professional boxing career, having picked up 34 wins in 35 bouts, 24 of which have been by knockout.He only has one draw besides that, which came in December 2018 in the first of his three fights against Deontay Wilder. Clearly, unless there is a draw in the rescheduled encounter, something will have to give and it will be interesting to see how the fight in the Middle East unfolds.With so many eyes going to be on this fight, there will naturally be a heavy focus on the judges, whose scores could end up being crucial when it comes to pinpointing a winner, should the bout go the full 12 rounds without a knockout.
"It’s easy to say judges need to be better when things go wrong, but why not bring in the top six judges in the world for a major championship fight like this – judges who have been most consistent – and let them decide these important fights?
