Tyson Fury Has Always Had Delusions Of Grandeur, Still Believing He Beat Oleksandr Usyk By A Completely Different Score After Watching The Replay.

Tyson Fury has defiantly spoken out about his defeat to Oleksandr Usyk and insisted he will win the rematch by knockout.

The Gypsy King suffered the first loss of his boxing career to the Ukrainian great, who beat him by split decision in May in Saudi Arabia.

Usyk almost stopped Fury in round nine and ultimately beat him on points.

Reflecting on the fight on his Furocity YouTube Channel, Fury said, “I’ve watched the fight back lots of times and still got the same answer – I thought I won the fight. Usyk knows he didn’t beat me. I thought I boxed the head right off him for most of the rounds. He landed a good punch in round eight and busted my nose. In round nine, he had a 10-8 round, and I gave him round ten. But other than that, I didn’t give him any other rounds.”

Fury continued, “It was actually a lot easier than I thought it’d be, the Usyk fight. People said he’s a hard man to hit, but I was lighting him up with four-punch combinations and laughing at him. My problem in that fight was I probably had too much fun. It was probably too easy. It felt like I was in there with a local amateur boxer. I was enjoying it too much, messing around, and paid the ultimate price in round nine.”

The Usyk vs. Fury rematch is now being planned for December 21 in Riyadh.

“I’ve got to get him out of there because I’m not gonna get a decision,” Fury insisted. “It’s unfortunate because it’s hard enough to win a fight just by winning it, never mind knowing you’ve gotta knock someone out. But I’m confident and looking forward to the challenge.”
