Tyson Fury receives chilling Usyk rematch warning as he’s told ‘WORSE’ things will happen in December dust-up


TYSON FURY has been warned he’ll suffer an even “WORSE” defeat to Oleksandr Usyk when they renew their rivalry.

The Gypsy King came up short in his bid to become the first undisputed heavyweight champion in nearly 25 years when he threw down with the undefeated Ukranian last month.

Fury, 35, suffered a split decision defeat to the slick southpaw, although he was extremely lucky not to have been stopped in the ninth round of the Riyadh rumble.

The pair will duke it out in the desert again on December 21, a date Oleksandr Gvozdyk believes Fury will be brutally finished.

Usyk’s London 2012 team-mate and countryman told Boxing News: “I think it will be even worse for Fury in the rematch.

“I know Usyk – once he catches you, he won’t let you go. Usyk is going to be even more confident in the next fight.

“Fury is better off fighting Anthony Joshua.

“The first fight was just a brilliant performance. He beat Fury everywhere, in and out of the ring.

“Fury likes to play mind games; in this case, it was the complete opposite. I think Usyk got in his head.

“I didn’t see Fury as confident as before, when he was a killer and super-confident.

“With Usyk, he was trying to do the same, but you can see in his eyes and by his mimics that he’s different and nervous.

“He was nervous in the ring. Usyk is the well-deserved No. 1 pound-for-pound fighter in the world.”

Former WBC heavyweight champ Fury believes he won the pair’s first meeting and has vowed to bounce back from his first professional defeat in emphatic fashion.

He said on Instagram earlier this week: “Listen up! I’ve conquered everything in boxing – titles, records, the lot.

“But I’ve never had to come back from a loss.

“On December 21st in Riyadh, in the heart of the kingdom, the king will reclaim his throne and become undisputed.

“Usyk, I’m coming for you! Get ready for the Gypsy King!

“The path to redemption is all mine.

“I know what I have to do, I saw my shortcomings and best believe I am inevitable.”
