Who are you picking? is ON July 2nd Manchester Sky Sports Who are you picking? Both men are talented contenders in the division, though they have not managed to secure a place among its top-tier and both have lost their previous title fights. The eliminator bout comes at a complicated time in heavyweight boxing. The winner of the Fury-Hunter fight should eventually end up with another shot at the title. However, the current WBA Champion is Oleksandr Usyk, who defeated Michael Hunter II in 2017. Usyk is currently scheduled to fight Anthony Joshua later this year. Hence, the winner of July's match will likely expect to challenge either Joshua or Usyk for the title. However, the prospective title bout may be disrupted if , the reigning WBC Heavyweight Champion, is offered a unification bout with the winner of Usyk vs Joshua.
