“People are on his side because of Ukraine”: Fury makes excuses, and Usik cries

The day before, Ukrainian Alexander Usyk defeated Briton Tyson by split decision Fury and, having taken one missing belt from the Gypsy King, became the absolute world boxing champion in the heavy weight category. Sports — about the reaction of the sports world to the hot events in Riyadh (Saudi Arabia).
Usyk defeated Fury and became the absolute world champion. It was a great showMay 18, 21:05
“I know that my father is somewhere here…” The best day in Usik’s career: On May 18, the 37-year-old native of Simferopol again proved that size in the ring does not matter, and in a difficult battle he defeated an opponent who had a catastrophic advantage in dimensions. Confident work as number one, endurance and control of emotions (Fury constantly provoked the Ukrainian) allowed Alexander to retain the belts of the World Boxing Association (WBA), International Boxing Federation (IBF), World Boxing Organization (WBO), International Boxing Organization (IBO) and the prestigious publication The Ring, and deprive Fury of the World Boxing Council (WBC) world title.

Usik became the first “absolute” in the “royal” weight in the 21st century. After the triumph, he recalled in tears at a press conference about his father, who died after his son’s victory at the 2012 Olympic Games:

“The last time my father came to me… I, of course, talk about dreams. I miss my father a lot. Then I said: “Dad, listen, you live there, and I live here.” So please don't come to me. I love you.» It is very difficult for me when my father comes to me, because I begin to remember my whole life. I know that he is somewhere here… Perhaps even somewhere among you, journalists. » />

«Don't doubt it, I won the fight» Fury, who suffered his first defeat (he had not lost in 35 fights before!), did not agree with the judges' decision, pointing out the bias of the referees due to Alexander's nationality .
«

"I believe that I won this fight. He won a few rounds, but I won most of them. We both had a good fight. His country is in a deplorable state, so people took his side. Make no mistake, I won this fight. We have a rematch clause in our contract. We will hold it in October,” journalist Michael Benson quotes the loser.

If it weren’t for the beating in the ninth round, one could agree with the Gypsy King… But the knockdown and the way 35-year-old Tyson survived deprived the underdog of not only a victory, but even a draw.

«The best in modern history» Well-deserved compliments continue to be addressed to the champion. So the leader of the rating, regardless of weight categories (P4P), is American Terence Crawfordnoted that the Ukrainian claims to be the best boxer in the world:

"Respect should be shown to Usyk. He is definitely in the running to be the best P4P boxer in the world. He beat the one who beat everyone in the heavier division. Although Usik has already achieved a lot without this.”

Former world boxing champion Vladimir Klitschko is delighted with his compatriot:

“A historic victory, it is important not only for Usik. He had no option to lose — can you imagine the pressure? Usyk demonstrated that he is good in the first heavyweight division. And then he surprised the whole world, although he is not so tall, heavy and long-armed… But Usik showed that he is the best in modern history. I am proud of Alexander and very proud to be Ukrainian.» (Boxing Scene)

Ukrainian boxer Vasily Lomachenko also congratulated Usik on social networks:
“»The best of the best. What a moment! Glory to you, God, glory to you. Peace to all «.

“The referee did not allow Usyk to knock out Fury” Of course, UFC star Conor McGregor did not remain aloof from the events in the East. Which seems to not be waiting for the rematch scheduled under the contract for October 12 or 13:

“The mustache is incredible. He defeated both Fury and Anthony Joshua convincingly. But I am for any arrangement that will bring the Fury-Joshua meeting closer. If Tyson wants to try his luck again, go ahead. Joshua also had two attempts. So this is not an easy task, although not impossible. If it doesn’t work out, then I’m in favor of the Joshua-Usyk trilogy. After that, regardless of the result, let it be Fury — Joshua… An incredible time to fight. All that remains is to thank God.”

We will also not ignore the opinion of ex-world boxing champion David Haye, who, like Usik’s manager, is sure that the confrontation should have been stopped in ninth round:

“As far as I remember, if the ropes keep someone from falling, the referee must stop the fight. From my point of view, this would be fair. If the roles had been reversed, if Alexander had done the same thing, the referee would probably have stopped the fight. I don’t understand why the referee gave Tyson a long count of 20 seconds, preventing Usyk from knocking him out. Everyone present in the room was upset by the decision.” (Eurosport)

What do experts think about the fight?

  • Former absolute world championKonstantin Tszyu:

"Usyk won due to a greater desire to win, a greater desire to win. And if we talk about Fury, I didn’t believe that he was fully ready for the fight. A certain self-confidence let him down. His good amateur boxing school played in Usik’s favor. When two high-class masters enter the ring, the mood for the fight is very important. You must always go to the end, and Usyk did just that. I’m very happy for him.”

  • Former WBC world champion Grigory Drozd:

«I didn't have enough aggression, blows, risk from Fury. I still expected that he wouldn't fool around, but would box more assertively. When he loses and puts his hands behind his back, it's already a clownery, not boxing, that's what — this is sloppiness on his part. Fury had sharp moments, winning episodes and rounds, but overall Usik’s victory is logical <…> He does too much in the ring for a heavyweight: he constantly puts pressure on and pulls out his opponent, constantly creates threats for him. , works well on the feet and with the front hand. This was too much information for Fury, which he could not cope with. After the fight, I had no doubts about Usik’s victory, I gave him at least eight rounds out of 12.»

  • Former head coach of the Russian national team Eduard Kravtsov:
  • "The outcome of the battle could be in one direction or the other. But still, Usik was better in this fight both functionally and in terms of choosing the right tactics. He imposed his boxing style on his opponent, and Fury could have done a better job. If Alexander fought the fight to the maximum of his capabilities, then Tyson, in my opinion, did not use his full potential. It amazes me that such a big guy like Fury tried to outbox Usik, and not use his actual advantages in anthropometry and weight.»
