Fight for four heavyweight belts between Alexander Usik (21-0, 14 KOs) and Tyson Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs) will take place on February 18 or 25 in Riyadh. The official fight date is expected to be confirmed no later than the end of this month.

Previously, the fight for the IBF, WBA, WBO and WBC titles was scheduled for December 23, but the Briton, after a surprisingly difficult fight with Francis Ngannou, decided that he needed more time to recover.

The Ring Magazine championship will also be at stake in the fight. The winner will become the first undisputed world heavyweight champion, possessing four championship belts and the title of “Bible of Boxing.”
