Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury are getting ready for another big fight. The two heavyweights will face off again on December 21 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, to settle who's the best in the world.
The rematch is set for December 21 back in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, where they'll battle it out for all the heavyweight belts. It's a do-over from their first fight in May, which Usyk won by split decision.
That first fight was a big deal - the first time in over 20 years that all the heavyweight titles were on the line. Usyk started strong, but Fury took control in the middle rounds. Things got intense in the ninth when Usyk hurt Fury, but the big man from Manchester managed to hang on until the end.
Now, Chinese heavyweight Zhilei Zhang thinks Usyk will win again, and he's not shy about it. In an interview with Box Nation, Zhang said:
"I would say 'and still'. Because in my opinion he had his number in the first fight and he just found the method to beat Tyson Fury. To have a bold prediction, I think he's going to finish him."
But Fury's not backing down. He's talking about knocking Usyk out this time, just like he did in his rematches with Deontay Wilder.
Zhang's got his own fight coming up. He'll take on Agit Kabayel on February 22 next year for the WBC Interim Title. If he wins, he could be next in line to face whoever comes out on top between Usyk and Fury.
The heavyweight division is heating up, and all eyes will be on Riyadh in December to see who will be crowned the undisputed champion.
