Fury named the reason for his defeat in the first fight with Usyk

Dmitriy Kel Dec. 17, 2024, 9:37 a.m.

Former world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury is sure that the outcome of the first fight with Oleksandr Usyk was influenced by the knockdown, in which he was in the ninth round.

"I don't think I lost the first fight. Yes, Usyk won by judges' decision, but I still had my self-confidence. After the fight I got my money and went home as usual. For the judges, the deciding factor was a knockdown in the ninth round, if not for that, I would have won," - quotes Fury Daily Mail.

Recall that Usyk defeated Fury by split decision of judges in May this year in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Boxers will hold a rematch this Saturday, December 21, there.
