What UK time is Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk? Start time for Fury vs Usyk 2

Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk are preparing to face off for the second time in 2024 tonight, promising a thrilling spectacle for boxing fans worldwide.

Usyk, the undefeated Ukrainian, made history by becoming the first boxer to beat Fury in his otherwise impeccable 16-year career earlier this year. The showdown took place at the Kingdom Arena in Saudi Arabia in May, where Usyk outperformed the Englishman to secure a split-decision victory.

The judges scored the match 115-112, 114-113 and 113-114 in Usyk's favour, propelling the 22-0 boxer from Simferopol to become the first undisputed heavyweight champion of the world since Lennox Lewis' reign in November 1999. After the bout he held the WBA (Super), WBO, WBC, IBF and IBO titles simultaneously - although he has since forfeited the IBF belt.
