Oleksandr Usyk dominated the cruiserweight division and is so far 1-0 in the heavyweight category, but his fight against former British and Commonwealth heavyweight champion Dereck Chisora will be a new challenge for the Ukrainian.
It took Usyk seven rounds to stop Chazz Witherspoon in October last year, but Chisora comes into the fight having beaten David Price via technical knockout in just four rounds.
Usyk was the undisputed cruiserweight champion, holding the WBA, WBO, WBC and IBF belts from November 2018, until he vacated the belts in March 2019 in order to move up to the heavyweight division.

The boxers are fairly evenly matched size wise coming into the fight, with the 6ft3 Usyk having an inch over Chisora, although the 17-0 Ukrainian has the advantage in reach, with 78 inches compared to Chisora's 74.
"I will make sure that when Usyk gets out of that ring he knows he has been in a fight," said Chisora.
"He wants to claim he is at the top of the food chain, but if he wants to do that he needs to box a true heavyweight."
Both fighters have a lot to prove this Saturday and will come into the ring firing. Chisora looking to stake his position in the heavyweight realm and Usyk to make a name for himself. It's not one to miss.
