Usyk will 'study' Fury...Undisputed fight next?

Oleksandr Usyk's immediate focus may be a rematch with Anthony Joshua, but the Ukrainian will be gearing up for all possibilities this Saturday by studying Tyson Fury's fight with Dillian Whyte ahead of a potential undisputed showdown between the pair. 

The 35-year-old is due to defend his WBA, WBO and IBF belts against Joshua this summer after ending the Brit's second reign as world champion with a unanimous points victory at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium last September.

Fury, set to put his WBC title on the line against Whyte at Wembley this weekend, looms as a possible next opponent should Usyk once again defeat Joshua, who himself could secure a long-awaited all-British battle by reclaiming his belts.

Usyk's team has confirmed they will be in the capital at the weekend to watch Fury in action.

"Definitely yes [we will be watching the fight]," Alexander Krassyuk, Usyk's promoter, told Sky Sports.

"Egis Klimas [Usyk's manager] and myself plan to attend the event and watch it from ringside.

"At Usyk's training camp, he will watch and study the fight on TV."

Fury previously suggested he planned on retiring following his fight with Whyte, a claim his father John was quick to rubbish.

The 33-year-old insisted on Thursday that he was not underestimating Whyte like others, and therefore planned to hold off on further retirement talk until afterwards.

"To be honest with you I am only thinking about Dillian Whyte, I am not thinking about retirement," he said. "That will come after the fight, we will think about what will happen and what the future will hold for me.

"At the minute, I have a massive task in Dillian. A lot of people are underestimating Dillian Whyte but not me. I am giving him the respect he deserves throughout the
