Oleksandr Usyk faces Tyson Fury in a rematch tonight at Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The event starts at 11:00am ET / 5pm UK time Live on DAZN PPV, but the main event between unified heavyweight champion Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs) and Fury will take place around 6:00 PM ET.
Can Fury beat Usyk in a rematch?
The 281-pound Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs) will try to avenge his loss to Usyk last May. This could be interesting if he goes to the scorecards or if Fury gets hurt like last time. Hopefully there won’t be a controversy like their previous fight.

Oleksandr Usyk vs Tyson Fury 2
Moses Itauma vs. Dempsey McCain – Co-Feature
Serhiy Bohachuk vs. Ismail Davies
Johnny Fisher vs. David Allen
Peter McGrail vs. Rhys Edwards
Isaac Lowe vs. Lee McGregor
Dylan Cullen (vs. Daniel Labine
Edgar Ramirez vs. Andrei Nowitzki
In this co-feature, Queensberry prospect Moses Itauma (10-0, 8 KOs) will face heavyweight contender Dempsey McCain (22-1, 14 KOs). It’s a fight with less impact than Serhii Bohachuk vs. Ishmael Davis, an eliminator for the WBC junior middleweight title. This is a much better fight than Itauma vs. McCain.
The 19-year-old Itauma is being moved quickly to put him in a position to take over after the retirements of Fury and Usyk. He doesn’t appear to be at all ready to compete for a world title or take over the top job. It’s understandable why Itauma’s promoters put it in the co-feature to give it some visibility as it’s not visible outside the UK.
