Tyson Fury has thrown his hat in the ring to fight new undisputed world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk for a third time.

Usyk dismantled Fury’s fellow British boxer Daniel Dubois in scintillating fashion at Wembley on Saturday.

Usyk’s brutal fifth-round stoppage made him undisputed world heavyweight champion for a second time. He initially won all the belts against Fury last May in Riyadh, but was forced to vacate his IBF title.

Former WBC-belt holder Fury went into retirement after he tasted a second defeat to Usyk on a split decision last December, but signalled his intentions to return earlier this month and served notice to the undefeated Ukrainian on Sunday.
