Fury-Usyk rematch undercard is announced. A lineup of British stars awaits us!
Since the first Fury vs Usyk clash, the Briton seeks revenge. 7 month pass from the moment Gypsy King lost his chance to become undisputed. Now, these two will fight for WBA, WBC & WBO heavyweight belts. The last of the “Big Four” IBF title was claimed by Daniel Dubois in the fight with Anthony Joshua after Usyk gave up on it.
A few young stars will feature a ring: Moses Itauma and Johnny Fisher are considered the future of the heavyweight division. Both British boxers never lost a match in their career. Read on to find out who they will be fighting against.
Who will fight in the undercard?
There is less and less time left until the event and fight fans are excitedly buzzing. The undercard fights have been officially announced for December 21. We will enjoy rising talents and seasoned contenders. Matchups promise to deliver action-packed thrills, setting the stage for an unforgettable night in the ring. Here’s a look at the fighters competing before the main event.
Heavyweight (over 91 kg)
- Moses Itauma vs Demsey McKean
Moses Itauma is considered one of Britain’s most promising young boxers. With a 10-0 record and 8 KOs, Itauma displays a mix of speed, strength, and boxing intellect. However, he will be taking a major step up when he fights Demsey McKean.
Dempsey McKean was going uphill until he suffered a loss last year. Still, the Australian boxer held 23 professional bouts and is a dangerous opponent. This fight will make or break McKean’s career so he will try to stop Itauma. Winning would put him back on the center stage, while a loss could ruin his career.
- Johnny Fisher vs Dave Allen
At his 25, Fisher held 12 professional fights and has won 11 of them by knockout. The Romford Bull is the clear favourite, even though he has not yet faced an opponent as experienced as Allan.
David Allan has faced top divisional fighters and now he aims to prove that he is still in shape. Allan has 31 fights on his record, this could be his last roll of the dice though.
Super-welterweigh 67-70 kg
- Serhii Bohachuk vs Israil Madrimov
The fight between Bohachuk and Madrimov destined to open the event. Both performed well in previous Riyadh season events so the fight promises to be thrilling. Israil Madrimov is the former WBA junior middleweight champ and Serhii Bhachuk is the former WBC interim champion. They have huge potential. Both boxers have been motivated to win after their first losses earlier this year.
Featherweight 57-60 kg
- Isaac Lowe vs Lee McGregor
In what is sure to be an exciting fight, these two British featherweights are set to square off at Kingdom Arena Riyadh. McGregor, with his 14 wins and 11KOs, has a significant advantage over Lowe. Isaac Lowe only knocked out 8 over 25 opponents. However, Lowe’s experience as a pro fighter is greater, with 15 more matches and having made his debut five years earlier.
Super-bantamweight 54-55 kg 
- Dennis McCann vs Peter McGrail
After defeating Brad Foster, Peter McGrail aims to fight Dennis McCann on December 21. McGrail is two wins out of two since being knocked by Ja’Rico O’Quinn in the Desert Diamond Arena last December. McCann earned the blue belt in his last bout rematch with Ionut Baluta after their initial fight ended in a technical draw. In turn, McGrail adds the WBA International Title to the mix and it could turn out to be a high-stakes winner-takes-all fight with five belts on the line.
