OLEKSANDR Usyk has sent fans into a frenzy with his bizarre impression of Tyson Fury.
The Ukrainian champion is aiming to repeat his first fight heroics and retain his heavyweight titles in Saudi Arabia tonight.
Usyk beat Fury on points to become the undisputed champ in May, the first in the four-belt era, but has dropped the IBF band for the rematch.
Fury, 36, has repeatedly mocked Usyk, branding his foe a “rabbit” and taunting his inability to “finish the job” in their first bout.
The Brit will no doubt alter his harsh stance after the final bell has rung, but Usyk’s impression of the Gypsy King has resurfaced.
During an interview in October 2023, with negotiations over the first fight rumbling on, he began to jokingly burble in a British accent.

Usyk said: “Tyson Fury he is a good family man, but if you switch on the TV or a camera, it’s a change. Like an alien you, know?”
Before shifting into a strange accent saying: “You Rabbit, you b***h, light heavyweight, middleweight.”
Fans were quick to react to the viral clip, with one writing: “Hahaha why does he sound like Mr. Bean? 😂😂😂.”
While another said: “Good impression, just like him to be fair!”

A third added: “He honoured Fury and clowned him in less than 60 seconds.”
One more replied: “Anyone else think it was more Mr. Bean than Tyson Fury? 😅”
Usyk, 37, is the only man to inflict defeat on Fury in the professional ranks.
The Briton is a slight underdog as he aims to become the first fighter to beat the Ukrainian warhorse.
Meanwhile, Fury has been granted permission to keep his beard for tonight’s heavyweight showdown.
Usyk‘s team had wanted the Gypsy King to shave off his bushy beard for the Saudi rematch.
They suggested that it could actually cushion a blow to the face, which would benefit Fury during the fight.
