The pair will meet on May 18 in Riyadh live on DAZN PPV for all four heavyweight titles in what is one of, if not the biggest fight of 2024. 

This is a contest which has captured the imagination of the boxing world with the hard-hitting Fury coming up against the slick Usyk who was once an undisputed champion at cruiserweight. 

However, when speaking to iFL TV, Deontay Wilder's trainer Malik Scott has claimed that Fury will be looking to come in the contest at a lighter weight which could prove the difference. 

"I was going with Usyk, then I’ve seen Tyson Fury 30lbs lighter and it changed my mind," Scott said. 

"He was moving and looking like the old Fury, the lighter Fury that to me is the best Fury and not as vulnerable.

"I’m sitting here and looking at the both of them on a poster and it’s a very good fight. You’ve got Usyk as the southpaw and you know what he brings, then you’ve got Tyson and we all know what he brings when he’s in shape and he’s mentally tough which is the majority of the time."

Scott has previous experience when it comes to facing Fury. He was in Wilder's corner for the thrilling trilogy fight against Fury three years ago, but it was a contest which resulted in Wilder being stopped in the eleventh round.
