Heavyweights Moses Itauma and Johnny Fisher will feature on the undercard of Tyson Fury's rematch with Oleksandr Usyk on 21 December in Saudi Arabia.

Itauma will take on Australian Demsey McKean, while Fisher will face fellow Briton Dave Allen.

Both Itauma and Fisher are undefeated in their careers and have been touted as the next generation of heavyweight stars.

Also on the undercard is Dennis McCann, who fights Liverpudlian Peter McGrail in an intriguing super-bantamweight contest.

McCann is undefeated in 17 fights while McGrail has just one loss in 11 contests.

Fisher, 25, takes on a seasoned veteran in 32-year-old Allen, who has six losses, two draws and 23 wins on his record.

Fisher has 11 knockouts in 12 wins, while 19-year-old Itauma will also be looking to extend his stoppage record.

Itauma has eight knockouts from 10 bouts and McKean represents a big step up in quality for the teenage prospect.

The southpaw has one defeat - against Filip Hrgovic last year - in 23 bouts.

Firstly, respect Master and the time he takes to tell us the card!

How in the world isn’t the WBA involved in this HW title?

[TIC]

the wba super world heavyweight belt should be involved. who says it's not?

[Mark TKO]

Liked usyk showing up today as 47. You can't but like him.

There was a maturity about Fury today I thought and a different kind of attitude. Long time till fight time mind.

'I genuinely believe Tyson will beat Usyk in December, 'says Warren. 'Even in losing a close first fight he proved he can outbox the master boxer Usyk and can hurt him.

'And he knows he must cut out the showboating this time and get down to business straight away.

'But if it is another defeat the Joshua fight will still be there and the Saudis would still be very keen on that.

'Then there's Daniel, matured now and ready for anyone. I would find it awkward making his fight with Tyson because they're both my fighters, have been with me ten years or more and I love them. But if they both want to do it so be it.

'Just as if Tyson suddenly says he wants to retire I would tell him to go ahead. I always say fighters are the first to know if they're in decline and the last to admit it.

'But in Tyson's case he also needs his boxing for the sake of his mental health problems.'

Warren does not anticipate a WBC title rematch between Joshua and Dubois happening and interfering with the schedule, even though it has been strongly mooted for February in Riyadh or Wembley.

'I don't believe that when it comes to it Joshua is going to risk taking that fight,' says Warren. 'Not after being knocked out like that.'

Dubois will still fight in February, perhaps in a mandatory defence of his WBC title. Warren adds: 'Then I would like to see Daniel rematch that defeat by Usyk in a fight I still believe he won with a legal body shot, not a low blow.'

I had it 116-112 for Usyk. @Master can you now see how Usyk does as a heavyweight? This makes Usyk my fighter of the year. It's still early although it's a great start for Fighter of the decade.
