# Rematch Clause For Usyk-Fury? Frank Warren Reveals ‘Probable’ Scenario

Frank Warren has speculated on whether or not there will be a rematch clause in the contract for Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk’s heavyweight undisputed fight.

The bout is said to be deep in negotiations, mainly with a site and purses to be decided following [both fighters already agreeing that it will take place next.](https://wp.boxing-social.com/news/usyks-promoter-explains-location-for-fury/)

Something else, however, that hasn’t been decided is the matter of a rematch clause. The stipulation allows the eventual loser of the fight to trigger an immediate second fight.

Frank Warren told [TalkSPORT](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Q9OKAwgp-k) that it ‘probably’ would be the case.

> “I’m not sure. I mean we haven’t got into that, but I probably think there would be \[a rematch clause\] because, God forbid, one of them gets a cut eye or anything goes wrong – anything can happen in boxing as we know -then there would be.”
>
> “The four belts are on the line, and the winner gets them. If there is a rematch I don’t think then the four belts will be on the line for it cause I don’t think the governing bodies will allow it. I think they’ll just say ‘right, you’ve got to get on with your mandatories now.'”

Rematch clauses are becoming more and more common in the sport – often to the frustration of fans – and it’s not a surprise that potentially the biggest fight boxing can offer, at least in terms of legacy, will follow a similar pattern.

What it does mean though is more confusion for the heavyweight scene and, as Warren points out, the potential of having one champion for a matter of weeks before the belts fragment and are fought for in a vacant capacity.

The governing bodies are, [in some cases](https://www.skysports.com/boxing/news/12183/12767202/wba-orders-oleksandr-usyk-to-face-daniel-dubois-in-world-heavyweight-title-defence), pausing mandatory challenges for the undisputed bout to go ahead, but it’s highly unlikely they’ll do this twice in a row.

This means the likes of Joe Joyce, Filip Hrgovic, and Daniel Dubois could be challenging for a belt by year end – or even just elevated to world champion status – should either Fury or Usyk trigger a rematch.
