Tyson Fury was not pleased with the outcome of his rematch against Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia on Saturday night. The judges had given Usyk a "Christmas gift," according to Fury, as they scored the fight 116-112 in favor of Usyk. Despite Fury's belief that he was the aggressor and had done enough to win, the judges ultimately gave the victory to Usyk.

However, he still felt that he had won the fight and that the judges had given Usyk a "Christmas gift" by awarding him the victory.
When asked if Usyk had shown any spirit in the ring, Fury responded that he did not feel any and instead felt a bit of Christmas spirit from the judges. He also stated that he knows what he had to do to secure a decision, and that was to knock Usyk out, but unfortunately, he was unable to do so.
Despite the disappointment, Fury accepted the decision and acknowledged that there is no point in dwelling on it. He mentioned that he had not seen his kids in 12 weeks due to training for the fight, and now he just wants to go home and be with his family. He also stated that in his opinion, the decision was a Christmas gift and that it was not Usyk's fault.
In conclusion, Tyson Fury was disappointed with the decision, but he accepted it and moved on. He believed that he had done enough to win the fight and that the judges had given Usyk a "Christmas gift." However, he also acknowledged that there is nothing he can do about it now and that he just wants to go home and be with his family.
