Major error made during Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk weigh-in as heavyweights separated by security

go toe-to-toe on Saturday to contest an undisputed heavyweight title in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, with all four belts on the line.

Meanwhile, there was a major error when it came to announcing Usyk’s weight. The 37-year-old came in at a career-heavy 16st , though it was incorrectly announced at the weigh-in as 16st 6lb.WBC champion Fury was in a playful mood, having danced his way onto the stage, obliged to a face-off and then pushed Usyk back, an action which prompted a melee between the two teams.

: "What Usyk does so well is adapts, you have to have multiple game plans against Oleksandr Usyk because he can change it up at any time. He can box off the back foot, he can box in a ring within the ring, he can put pressure on you, he can be a volume puncher, he can move, he's got everything. "Fury might have to change his game plan during the fight. Two great tacticians, two great ring IQs in there, but really difficult to overcome Usyk mentally.
