In the quotes corner, Tyson Fury expressed his excitement about the upcoming fight in Saudi Arabia, saying: "It feels absolutely fantastic to be in the great Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. I'm feeling fantastic. I can't wait to put a good show on. There's so many people coming. It's such an event. All the big stars are here. It's going to be epic. I can't wait. If I was fighting an old dosser on Saturday night who had five fights and lost them all, it would be very important to me."

Tyson Fury, the heavyweight champion, expressed his confidence ahead of his fight with Oleksandr Usyk, stating: "Every fight I've ever had is important to me. Every little fight along the way was important to me. I believe that every left and right turn I've ever taken in my life, every time I've fallen over, and every time I've climbed up was all leading to this moment. It's destiny. I predict that somebody's '0' has got to go. And it's going to be that team over there, unfortunately for them. Oleksandr Usyk is a great fighter. Olympic gold medalist, cruiserweight world champion, heavyweight world champion."

"But, unfortunately for him, he has to come against the great Tyson Fury in the era of me. I'm really looking forward to Saturday night. Even if he had 20 million people screaming his name, they cannot fight for him on the night. And when there's two men in there on the night, it's going to be very daunting when he has The Undertaker in the ring with him."

On the other hand, Oleksandr Usyk shared his excitement about the upcoming match, saying: "I feel good. I'm very happy to be here. Saturday is a special day because I will have the opportunity to become undisputed for a second time. It's great. It's very good for me. It's very important for my country. I like that. I have a plan. It's a better plan. And it's a great plan. I really appreciate the support from my fans and Ukrainian soldiers. I love my fans."
