The Briton faces the Ukrainian again after their earlier bout, and admits the financial gain is a driving factor in his call.
Tyson Fury admits that he wants “the easiest fights for the largest amounts of money” as a prize-fighter, as he prepares for his rematch with Oleksandr Usyk.
The Briton heads back to Saudi Arabia for another bumper payday and the chance to claim revenge against the unified heavyweight champion after a first career loss in May.

Victory would see Fury become a three-time world champion, and almost certainly set the wheels in motion for a trilogy fight that would bring further riches to both men.
Speaking before his return to the Kingdom Arena for Riyadh Season’s Reignited event, the star acknowledges it is the paydays and providing for his family that keeps him fighting.
“The legacy is my kids, isn’t it?” he said. “The one thing I do care about is my family, my kids, looking after them. [This is for] more generational wealth.
“I’m only doing it for the money, obviously. All prize-fighters, if they tell the truth, do it for the money. I don’t want to work for f*** all, I want to earn as much as I can get.
“I want the easiest fights possible for the largest amounts of money. I don’t want the toughest fights possible for the least amount. I wasn’t born on a Christmas cracker.”
Despite his claims, Fury will face arguably the toughest test of his career in a rematch with the only man to hand him a professional defeat so far, by split decision in May.
