Darren Rees: Previewing Fury vs. Usyk - most anticipated heavyweight boxing bout in a longtime

Freelance boxing reporter Darren Rees - who's covered the sport extensively for the BBC - joins Martin Devlin on It's Only Sport, ahead of this weekend's much-anticipated heavyweight bout between Brit Tyson Fury and Ukranian Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia. The winner will unify the division as both hold all four major championship belts between them. Rees and Devlin discuss who has the edge based on style, what we can expect in terms of performance with both having fought just once since August 2022, the lustre that the heavyweight division has over others, and much more.
