The Biggest Fight In 25 Years Is This Saturday Night
I know I use a lot of superlatives when I write. Still, I am not exaggerating when I say that this Saturday's matchup between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk to decide who is the UNDISPUTED HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE WORLD is currently the biggest fight that can be made AND is the most important heavyweight bout we have seen in nearly a quarter of a century.
As a fat fuck, I may be biased in thinking the heavyweight division is still the straw that stirs boxing's drink, but I really don't care. And I haven't been this excited to see two big boys go at it since November of 1999 when Lennox Lewis avenged a controversial DRAW earlier that year and beat Evander Holyfield by unanimous decision, walking away with the WBC, WBA, IBF, and IBO straps.

Twenty-five years later, history is about to be made once again, and Tyson Fury, Shannon Briggs, fucking Dale Earnhardt Jr, and I break the whole thing down in the attached video.
If you're looking for a prediction, this one is nearly a coin toss according to Vegas, but I am going to wait until the final weigh-in before I pick Fury tell you which fighter I am leaning toward.
I am well aware of how AWFUL Tyson looked versus Ngannou…

And Usyk… Well, he's just a fucking Southpaw MONSTER, and simply one of the best to ever lace them up.
Go to dazn.com and order this one up RIGHT NOW.
Take a report.
