Usyk vs Fury weigh-in… live streaming on YouTube NOW!
But don’t worry – you haven’t missed anything. We’re still waiting for Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk to hit the scales.
Elsewhere, the last-minute Peter McGrail vs Rhys Edwards fight has been confirmed as a super featherweight clash. McGrail says he’s “ready” and has a lot of respect for Edwards, who steps in at late notice to replace Dennis McCann.
Fun fact: Tyson Fury’s beard length was officially cleared and sanctioned yesterday. The Morecambe bomber’s bushy visage attracted the ire of Usyk’s camp, who are still protesting its length. Presumably they want Fury to get a better ‘uppercut’?

Is it true that Usyk vs Fury 2 will feature an AI judge?
Yes, the AI experiment will be “free from bias and human error” according to Turki Alalshikh the man behind the tool. You might be relieved to hear that the so-called ‘AI judge’ will not be used for official scorecards.
It’s certainly an interesting idea but we’re not convinced AI judges will solve boxing’s scoring problem.
What time are main event ringwalks?
Good question. Being a live fight, timings are changeable and it’s not unusual for big bought to start later than originally advertised.

5.20pm ET / 10.20pm GMT – 10 mins of live entertainment
