Boxing fans will be able to watch the fight via all three broadcasters, but the PPV price for UK viewers has not yet been declared. However, US audiences will be expected to pay $69.99 for the undisputed title fight.
Fury will be looking to put on a better performance against the Ukrainian boxer than he did against former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou on October, 28, 2023.
Fury won the Battle of the Baddest bout via split decision but it was far from convincing, with ‘The Predator’ knocking the WBC champion down in the third round.

Fury tried to land a right hand on the MMA heavyweight but Ngannou countered well and caught him on the temple with a huge left hook, sending him thudding to the canvas.
Many punters felt Ngannou did enough across the 10 round contest to win the fight and said that the Cameroonian had been ‘robbed’ to protect Fury’s fight with Usyk in February.
However, the majority of boxing experts agreed that Fury was the rightful winner on the night – just edging past the Cameroonian after one of his more disappointing performances.
Nevertheless, Ngannou walked away from the bout in Saudi Arabia with a massive amount of credit and established himself as a worthwhile contender in the heavyweight division.
Fury appears to be taking his current camp seriously, being uncharacteristically quiet on social media after touching down in Riyadh to begin his training camp for the undisputed title fight on February 17.
Fury has also been seen sparring Moses Itauma (7-0) Kevin Lerena (30-2) and Alexis Barriere (11-0) in the build-up to the fight. He also completed five rounds with cruiserweight sensation Jai Opetaia.
Meanwhile, Usyk has been facing the likes of Sanel Hasanovic (7-1-1) Vladimir Katsuk (5-1) Mariusz Wach (38-10) Emanuel Odiase and (1-0) Darren Sealy (0-1).
Usyk will be heading into the fight off the back of wins again Daniel Dubois and Anthony Joshua – having taken AJ’s WBA, IBF and WBO titles during their first bout in September 2021.
