Tyson Fury, a renowned boxer, has recently experienced two consecutive losses against Oleksandr Usyk. However, not everyone agrees with Fury's claim that he won the rematch against Usyk in Saudi Arabia on Saturday night. Turki Alalshikh, Saudi's boxing kingpin, has expressed his disagreement with Fury's statement, stating that Usyk truly deserved the win with a four-round margin.
Usyk has solidified his position as the best heavyweight boxer in the world with yet another impressive performance against Fury. All three judges unanimously scored the fight 116-112 in favor of the Ukrainian. Despite suffering another defeat, Fury remained adamant that he had done enough to beat Usyk. He even went as far as describing the judges' scoring as a "Christmas gift".
On the other hand, Alalshikh, who was sitting ringside with Jason Statham to witness the fight, believes that Usyk's victory was well-deserved. He praised Fury for putting up an amazing fight, but in the end, there can only be one winner in boxing. Alalshikh also expressed his interest in seeing a rematch between Usyk and Daniel Dubois, if Dubois wins against Joseph Parker in February. He also mentioned the possibility of Fury facing off against Anthony Joshua in the future.
Meanwhile, Fury's promoter, Frank Warren, expressed his shock and disappointment at the judges' scoring. He described it as "impossible" and claimed that Fury was "gutted" after his consecutive loss to Usyk. Warren, who has been in the boxing world for a long time, stated that he may be biased, but the judges' scoring was simply absurd. One judge couldn't give Fury any round from round six onwards, while the other judges only gave him one round out of the last six.
Warren's frustration was evident as he questioned the judges' decisions and called it "nonsense". He also mentioned that Fury was devastated by the loss, as he truly believed he had won the fight. However, Warren made it clear that he was not blindly biased and was speaking based on what he saw. He also refused to comment on what Fury's next move will be, but acknowledged that Usyk's performance was impressive and he remained focused throughout the fight.
