Henry Hardwicke's verdict

Oleksandr Usyk was awarded a split-decision victory over Tyson Fury in May, but the Ukrainian's victory was far more comfortable than the scorecards suggested. 

Fury has to improve on his effort in the first bout between the big hitters, but it’s difficult to see where that progress will come from at the age of 36.

The Gypsy King was involved in three gruelling bouts against Deontay Wilder, who has looked shot since. 

The Morecambe man has led an ill-disciplined lifestyle when not in camp and he's a veteran of 36 fights.

Usyk looks a good bet for a repeat success over the Brit.

Oleksandr Usyk to win 

Tom Hill's verdict

Both Fury and Usyk showcased their skills in their first showdown at the Kingdom Arena and a better fight should be expected now that they have shared the ring.

Fury was in charge of the first clash until halfway when he was rocked by a one-two, but he rallied and once again showed how effective he can be.

Usyk is the better boxer, and he forces his rivals into making mistakes, which is something Fury is susceptible to. 

The Ukrainian hurt Fury in the first bout, but the Brit should be heavier on the scales and harder to inflict damage on this time around.

As a cruiserweight Usyk was a level above his rivals and carried power, but at heavyweight, the 37-year-old has only one knockout on his CV. 

Usyk is too clever and elusive and should have his hand raised, but it will come after 12 entertaining rounds in Saudi Arabia.

Tom's best bet
Oleksandr Usyk to win by decision
