What is at stake on this heavyweight rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury?

In the rematch the IBO, WBA and WBC belts were on the line as Usyk vacated to the IBF strap to prioritize a rematch with Fury. A rematch clause was there also in the first fight. Usyk escaped a narrow decision in the first fight as Fury dominated in the first half of the 12-round fight. He has the opportunity to secure a clear cut victory. In the first fight post fight interview Usyk commented about the referee's decision to rule a standing knockdown instead of a stoppage. Fury on the other hand considered not only the "Gypsy King" but also a rematch king, expected to outperform his previous performance against the same opponent. So, is this a revenge or repeat? You better watch it live! But how?
