Usyk and Fury squared off across universes, hurling phantom strikes across vast chasms. The blows of mind games, the artillery of psychological war. Step by step, as the gulf closed, they were transformed: one moment cowboys in a shootout, the next gladiators beneath a burning sun, then pirates, then cartoons, until all of history seemed to converge upon a single stage.

And when they finally got close, the storm broke. Lightning split the sky, and from its brilliance emerged Michael Buffer himself, the herald of spectacle. His voice, eternal and unmistakable, summoned the ring into being. And in that instant, the odyssey resolved into its truth: two men, gloves laced, ready to write the next chapter of heavyweight immortality.
