Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk 2 to have AI judge as groundbreaking decision made days before fight

A groundbreaking decision has been made ahead of Tyson Fury's rematch against Oleksandr Usyk.

This weekend, all eyes will be on the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia as Fury looks to seek revenge on Ukrainian Usyk.

Last time out, Usyk beat the Brit on points to become the undisputed champion of the world.

Ahead of the much-anticipated fight, a groundbreaking announcement has been made.

Turki Alalshikh, chairman of Saudi Arabia’s General Entertainment Authority, announced on Tuesday afternoon that an AI judge will be used for the fight, which promises to be 'free from bias and human error'.

He wrote on social media: "For the first time ever, an AI-powered judge will monitor the fight.

"Free from bias and human error brought to you by The Ring. This groundbreaking experiment, which won’t impact the official results, debuts during the biggest fight of the century, #Usyk2Fury, on December 21." Don’t miss history in the making."
