Fury and Usyk will meet at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh on Saturday night in their long-awaited bout.

The winner will become the first undisputed heavyweight world champion since Lennox Lewis in 2000.

Ahead of the fight, Usyk was seen hitting the pads in an orthodox stance.

He displayed a change from his regular southpaw stance whilst showing off his movement and skills with his coaches.

The mind games continued, though, as Fury entered the ring later in the evening.

Fury appeared in southpaw as he also switched from his usual stance of orthodox.

The Gypsy King hit the pads in the ring with his trainer SugarHill Steward.

Meanwhile, Usyk could be seen watching on and staring down his opponent from outside the ring.

Fury’s light-hearted workout also saw the Brit play the air guitar as he remained calm ahead of this weekend’s bout.

Tempers have already flared during fight week after an altercation between John Fury and a member of Usyk’s team.

The cornerman was caught on camera headbutting a rival during media day on Monday.

His son appeared relax at Tuesday’s Grand Arrivals event, though, as he wore a pair of bright trousers, black vest shirt and dark hat.

Fans were taken aback by his new look, with Fury compared to the Undertaker and Boy George on social media.
