Why Tyson Fury will be stripped of his world title immediately if he beats Oleksandr Usyk
manchestereveningnews.co.ukAlthough Tyson Fury may become the undisputed heavyweight world champion tonight, it's unlikely he'll retain all four belts for an extended period.
Fury is set to battle Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia, hoping to become the first undisputed champion since Lennox Lewis in 1999.
This fight will also mark the first time all four belts are up for grabs, with only three being available 25 years ago. However, Filip Hrgovic, the long-serving mandatory to IBF champion Usyk, won't idly wait for a second Fury-Usyk duel set for October.
Instead, he is scheduled to go head-to-head with Daniel Dubois for the IBF title this June, and the victor is poised to challenge Anthony Joshua at the Wembley stadium come September.
