TYSON FURY has ramped up the trash talk with Oleksandr Usyk ahead of the official announcement of their undisputed heavyweight title fight.
Fury, 35, wasn’t in the mood for calling the undefeated Ukrainian names after he was gifted a split-decision victory against former UFC champion Francis Ngannou last month.
But the WBC heavyweight champion is back to his usual brash and abrasive self ahead of their pre-fight press conference in London this evening.
After seeing his unified counterpart, Fury roared: “Sausage, sausage! Usyk’s a sausage.
“Ugly boy – you ugly little man. Ugly little sausage man.”
An unknown member of Usyk’s team refused to let the Wythenshawe warrior have the last word.

They shouted back at Fury: “Come to try, come to try it.
“Come to try the sausage. Come to try.”
Fury and Usyk were initially set to go in a Riyadh Rumble on December 23.
But Team Fury pulled the plug on the fight after his lacklustre display against Ngannou, paving the way for the Saudis to put on a blockbuster end-of-year card featuring Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder.
