AS IF Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk’s undisputed bout wasn’t already going to down in history, it has now been immortalised with an ultra-rare watch.
The pair face off in Saudi Arabia next week in the first undisputed heavyweight clash since 1999.
The momentous occasion is being celebrated by watchmakers Jacob & Co who have created a unique watch to commemorate the fight.
The watch, named Ring of Fire, features figurines of both Fury and Usyk alongside red and blue boxing gloves and a moving face that reads “Undisputed world champion” and resembles the world title belt.
The incredible timepiece is made from rose gold and is based on Jacob & Co’s three-dimensional Astronomia Art collection – which boasts price tags that can reach well in excess of £400,000.
This watch, however, could fetch even more than that eye-watering sum as only THREE have been made.

Of those three only one will be available to the public with both Usyk and Fury gifted a watch each.
The third watch will be sold by famous auction house Sotheby’s with the proceeds being donated to the Make A Wish foundation.
Jacobs & Co founder Jacob Arabo said: “We’re very excited to see Fury and Usyk get into it.
“At Jacob & Co we have a long history of making bespoke timepieces with and for fighters.

“It’s a privilege for us to make this limited edition Astronomia Art Ring of Fire.
“Especially because proceeds from one of the timepieces will go to one of the most respectable charities. This fight is one for the ages.”
Tyson Fury is known for his extravagant watch collection and is already the proud owner of a Jacobs & Co Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon which retails for around £240,000.
While he once wagered his gold, diamond-encrusted Rolex Daytona Rainbow Sapphire watch to whoever could beat him in the ring.
When he prepared for his showdown with Dillian Whyte in 2022, he flashed another £60,000 diamond-laden 18ct timepiece from the brand.
While other timepieces in his collection include a Richard Mille RM 011 Flyback Chronograph that costs over £100,000 and a Patek Philippe Nautilus Chronograph that’s worth around £90,000.
