Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk were supposed to battle of views ahead of their bout for the status of undisputed heavyweight champion.

However, after the press conference, Tyson conspicuously refused to look in the direction of the Ukrainian and kept his gaze fixed on the audience instead.

The showdown for the title of undisputed world champion in the heavyweight division between Usyk and Fury is scheduled for May 18 in Riyadh. All belts and the title of undisputed heavyweight world champion will be at stake.

Together, the Ukrainian and the Briton hold all the major belts in the heavyweight division – WBA, WBO, IBF, IBO, and WBC.

Recall that preceding the pugilists' press conference, representatives of their entourages engaged in a skirmish, culminating in Tyson Fury's father, John, headbutting one of Usyk's team members, ultimately lacerating his own forehead.
