Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk will vie for the title of undisputed heavyweight champion when they meet in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on Saturday, May 18 (Sunday, May 19 in Australia).

Fury, holding the WBC title, faces off against Ukraine's Usyk, who currently possesses the IBF, WBA, and WBO belts, with the winner to determine the first undisputed heavyweight champion in 25 years.

The question looms: Will Fury's imposing stature overwhelm Usyk, or will Usyk, having already secured all cruiserweight belts, emerge victorious and become a two-division undisputed champion?
