In Saudi Arabia, Alexander Usyk's weight was incorrectly reported after an official measurement.

"TalkSport" journalist Mitchell Benson claims that the wrong weigh-in results for Usik were published in Riyadh. The scale read 223 pounds (101,2 kg), not the officially announced 233 pounds (105,7 kg).

If the error is confirmed, the difference in weight in tonight's match for the absolute heavyweight boxing champion with Tyson Fury will be 17,6 kg.

The Brit weighed 118,8 kilograms at the weigh-in.
