Oleksandr Usyk will try to “bully” and “terrorize” Tyson Fury in their unification title bout, says Eddie Hearn

Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury are all set for their epic heavyweight title unification bout set to take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on May 18. The pair hold all the belts at heavyweight, and the winner of their fight will be crowned the division's first undisputed champion since 1999.

'The Gypsy King' will enter the ring with a size and weight advantage, as he weighed in at 262 pounds, compared to his opponent, who weighed a career-high of 224 pounds.

Fury's height has always been a topic of conversation, with him being listed at 6ft. 9in, while many believe he is far closer to 6ft. 6in. 'The Cat' has been listed at 6ft 3in.

Ahead of the clash, leading boxing promoter Eddie Hearn shared his preview for fight night. The Matchroom Boxing chairman appeared on the DAZN broadcast, where he said this:

"[Usyk's weight] tells the story of the fight. Usyk is gonna box off the front foot. I think regardless of the size difference he's gonna try and bully Tyson Fury. You heard him say there, 'I will not leave you alone.' I think Fury is gonna box off the back foot, he's coming in light, he's gonna move and I think Usyk's gonna be on him."

He continued:

"I think he's gonna be punches in bunches, using his angles, I think he's gonna attempt to terrorize Tyson Fury tomorrow night. Whether that's possible, I have no idea."

Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk are set to clash in the ring at the third time of asking, with their bout headlining an exciting card including multiple touted prospects, such as Jai Opetaia.

The pair were initially scheduled to face off on Dec. 23, but Fury's clash with Francis Ngannou in October saw him receive more damage than he expected. The heavyweight title fight was then rescheduled for Feb. 17, but disaster struck several days before fight night as 'The Gypsy King' was cut above his eye in sparring.

The bout was rescheduled for a second time, with May 18 the new date for the heavyweight title clash, and all appears set ahead of their much-anticipated clash.

The pair shared a heated final face-off yesterday, where the pair of pugilists engaged in a brief shoving match before being separated.
