The Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, is primed to host one of the most anticipated rematches in boxing history with Tyson Fury taking on Oleksandr Usyk. The main card is expected to start on Sunday, December 22nd, at 12:00 AM Pakistan Standard Time (PST) while the main event is expected to take place around 4 AM in Pakistan.
Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury will step into the ring to vie for the WBA, WBC, and WBO heavyweight titles as the Brit look to avenge his loss earlier this year.
| Fight | Details |
|---|---|
| Oleksandr Usyk (c) vs. Tyson Fury | WBA, WBC, and WBO Heavyweight Titles |
| Moses Itauma vs. Demsey McKean | Heavyweight Bout |
| Johnny Fisher vs. Dave Allen | Heavyweight Bout |
| Dennis McCann vs. Peter McGrail | Featherweight Bout |
| Isaac Lowe vs. Lee McGregor | Bantamweight Bout |
In their initial meeting this past May, Tyson Fury’s superior reach and technical skills dominated the early rounds. But the tide turned dramatically in the ninth when Usyk landed a devastating right hand that sent Fury stumbling across the ring. The 10-8 round shifted momentum in Usyk’s favor, allowing him to secure a split-decision victory and a fleeting reign as the undisputed heavyweight champion.
The rematch carries immense significance for the heavyweight division. Usyk relinquished the IBF title to make this fight happen, and a win would further cement his legacy. For Fury, this is a shot at redemption and a potential trilogy.
Meanwhile, Daniel Dubois—who claimed the IBF title after defeating Filip Hrgovic and solidified his position with a knockout of Anthony Joshua—awaits his next challenge. Dubois will defend his title against Joseph Parker on February 22 in Riyadh, potentially setting up a future showdown with the Usyk-Fury winner.
