The fight went the full 12 rounds and was tough for both boxers. In the first half, it was hard to tell who was winning. But Usyk stepped up his game in the second half. He landed more big punches and kept pushing Fury.

Fury's promoter, Frank Warren, is really upset about how the judges scored the fight. He thinks Fury was 'robbed' and is questioning the scorecards.

But not everyone agrees with Warren. Carl Froch, who used to be a super-middleweight world champion, thinks Usyk won fair and square. In an interview with YouTube channel, Froch explained his view:

"The right man won. For the first six rounds, it was close. Fury and Usyk were trading rounds. But around rounds 6 and 7, things changed. Usyk got closer as Fury started to get tired. The eye-catching shots were coming from Usyk. Frank Warren is probably watching it with his emotional glasses on."

Froch scored the fight the same as the judges did.

Fury still says he won both fights against Usyk. He hasn't decided what he'll do next. For now, he plans to spend time with his family over Christmas and New Year. Many people think he might fight Anthony Joshua next, but nothing's set in stone yet.

This win cements Usyk's place as the top heavyweight of his time. He beat Fury twice, leaving no doubt about who's the best.
