Anticipation is building up ahead of this tonight's undisputed heavyweight boxing fight between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk.

The pair will take to the ring this Saturday, May 18, in Saudi Arabia looking to become the first undisputed heavyweight champion since Lennox Lewis in 1999.

Originally, the fight was scheduled to take place in February but was forced to be cancelled out Fury suffered a cut to his eye during a sparring session. The Gypsy King comes into the fight as the favourite with Usyk against the odds once again.
