    The world heavyweight boxing title could be unified by February or March

    The world heavyweight boxing title could be unified by February or March


    Promoter Bob Arum has confirmed Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk have agreed to fight each other, potentially in Saudi Arabia.

    Fury beat British rival Derek Chisora to retain his WBC belt this month in London and called out Usyk, who holds the IBF, IBO, WBO and WBA titles and was ringside for the bout.
