We’re less than 24 hours away from one of the most important fights in heavyweight boxing history. Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk, both undefeated in their careers, aim for undisputed glory on Saturday in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
It’s been clear for years that the two aren’t very fond of each other, and that has definitely been portrayed throughout fight week. On Friday, the tension boiled over at the weigh-in and both fighters had to be separated.

Fury was the one who really got in Usyk’s face and pushed Usyk. Usyk, as always, remained with a calm demeanor. It wasn’t easy to pick up what was said between the two, but Usyk has revealed what he told Fury at that moment.
Don’t be afraid. I will not leave you alone tomorrow.
It’s that type of concise yet killer attitude that has turned Usyk into one of the best boxers in recent history. Fury likes to talk a lot and is a very outgoing figure, which is a stark contrast to the Ukrainian.
Those differing personalities should make for fireworks in the ring on Saturday, as both boxers have distinct fighting styles. There is so much on the line, and both fighters will do anything it takes to come home with it all.
