Battle of the giants: Fury and Usyk in the AI ​​experiment of boxing history!

Boxing is facing a remarkable challenge! Heavyweight icons Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk will meet in a highly anticipated rematch on Saturday evening in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Fury, who already suffered a dramatic setback in his career when he lost to Usyk by a narrow decision in May, emphasized in an interview with DAZN that his mental struggles were far more significant than his sporting successes. After a suicide attempt, Fury speaks openly about his return from despair and sees the upcoming challenge of getting into the ring as "child's play" compared to what he has been through.

But that's not all! In a revolutionary move, this duel will see the use of an AI robot to evaluate the fight for the first time in history. As per a report by Picture Saudi boxing boss Turki Al-Sheikh presents this innovative system, which is said to be “free from bias and human error”. While the robot's evaluation will not affect the official result, it could reduce potential controversy in boxing by providing more objective judgments. Memories of controversial decisions, such as the famous duel between Axel Schulz and George Foreman, make clear how important fair evaluation is in boxing.

With Fury and Usyk, not only are two of the best heavyweights facing each other, but the future of boxing is also being put to a new test. The official broadcast of the fight begins on December 21st at 5pm on DAZN and the boxing world is holding its breath to see how this remarkable evening will unfold.
