Fans really believe Oleksandr Usyk has it NO risk of retaining his three heavyweight titles without scoring against Tyson Fury in their rematch this Saturday, December 21, in Riyadh.

Usyk's Rising War

The lone champion, Oleksandr, is fighting for the promotion on Saturday night and may need a spectacular match to win.

Turki Alalshikh has said he wants a third fight between the two, and there is also a lot of interest in Fury's fight against mega-money Anthony Joshua. For those matches to generate enough fan interest, Fury needs to win. Turki said who he wants to win on Saturday night is important.

Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs) needs to know what he's fighting for in this fight because he needs a fight to win. As seen in the first fight, the close rounds are in Fury's favor. To win the rounds, Usyk will have to hammer Fury into the dirt and dominate after he gets up. Even in the rounds that Usyk sends Fury, you can't say that it will be sent to him.

A Prelude To Riyadh

That sub in the ninth round of the Fury-Usyk fight on May 18 may be the start of an uphill battle Oleksandr will face on Saturday night. He'll likely knock Fury out with a single shot to the head in a match.

A lot of people think that Fury's A-side star will be given the wrong name fake victory and a 10-round split decision as he received in his fight against Francis Ngannou last year on October 28, 2023, in Riyadh.

"No," Usyk said to the Flat Panelwhen asked about his thoughts on Turki Alalshikh wanting Tyson Fury to win because of his desire for a third fight. "I will win."
