Frank Warren, the promoter of the British Tyson Fury, said that the rematch of his client with the undisputed heavyweight world champion Oleksandr Usyk will take place in October this year in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
He's back here, he's recuperating and his mood is that he wants the rematch and that's already signed for so it will happen. When will the rematch take place? In October in Riyadh,” Warren told talkSPORT.
The first fight between Usyk and Fury took place in the main event of a boxing night held on May 18 in Riyadh. In this fight, which lasted the whole distance, Oleksandr won by split decision and became the undisputed champion in the heavyweight category.
Usyk has 22 wins (14 by knockout) and no defeats in the professional ring. Fury has 34 wins (24 by knockout), one defeat and one draw.
