Fight week is underway ahead at Riyadh Season's Reignited, live on DAZN pay-per-view, as Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury prepare to go head-to-head for a second time. Seven months after Usyk bested the "Gypsy King" at the Kingdom Arena, the pair face off once again. While the boxing world anticipates the events of Saturday's showdown inside the ring, there is plenty of discussion over what the future holds for both fighters afterwards.
In the build-up, Fury has made no secret that a win for himself would set up a likely trilogy fight and Frank Warren has clarified there is indeed a clause for a third fight. However, the Queensberry Promotions veteran did point out one factor which could stop this huge contest from happening if his man does indeed leave Riyadh triumphant. "It’s contracted, and whatever happens," the promoter told Boxing News. "That will be the case if Tyson wins, providing nobody retires."
If Fury does emerge victorious and another bout with Usyk follows, it will be the third trilogy of his career, having fought both Deontay Wilder and Derek Chisora three times prior. The "Gypsy King" is unbeaten across those six fights, having drawn his first clash with the "Bronze Bomber" and won all other encounters.
