Tyson Fury looked subdued and dominated during today’s final DAZN PPV press conference for his rematch with three-time heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk this Saturday, December 21, on Turki Alalshikh’s Riyadh season card.
Wearing an expensive-looking hat and threads, an exhausted-looking ‘Gyspy King’ had little to say during the press conference. He showed no energy to build interest in the fight, further cementing the belief that boxing fans have that the former WBC Heavyweight Champion. Tyson looked like a picture of a fighter who had already lost.
Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs) is doomed. Fury’s bags under his eyes suggest he’s spent some sleepless nights worrying about his comeback. Only today was there in the flesh.
The last fight didn’t go well for Fury, losing a 12-round split decision to Usyk on May 18, and he hasn’t seemed to buckle down to stay fit in the past few months since. He looks like a fighter who made weight quickly instead of slowly.
Fury didn’t seem engaged during the press conference, and you could tell he would have preferred to go home to his expensive mansion in Morecambe, Lancashire. He looks like he knows he’s going to lose, but he’s going to go through the motions, show up Saturday night, give it a shot, and then take that grunt. pay check between $76 million and $85.5 million after In other words, Fury came for the money.
Many consider Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs) a solid favorite to repeat with another victory and finish what he started last time, when he sent Fury bouncing against the ropes after being tagged in the ninth round.
Usyk’s confidence
“Don’t be afraid; I won’t leave you alone,” Usyk said in his final words during the press conference. He felt he didn’t have to come up with any new lines. He might have said more after watching Fury look like a lifeless fish during the press conference—he probably felt he didn’t need to find something witty and new to say.
“DON’T BE AFRAID YOU F*CKER LOOKING RABBIT”
