UsykSunSport’s scorecards: Usyk 118-112 Fury.This, though, was his toughest test beyond doubt.Usyk was unblemished as a professional, having unified both the cruiserweight and heavyweight crowns. Watch Tyson Fury’s incredible Mariah Carey themed entrance for rematch against Oleksandr UsykUsyk was unblemished as a professional, having unified both the cruiserweight and heavyweight crowns. Both a cunning boxer and a fierce fighter, motivated not just by his own status but as the sporting flag-bearer of his occupied homeland.  And despite the split decision from the judges in May, there was little doubt that the Ukrainian should have been a clear, unanimous winner. That had been a classic encounter, between two unbeaten fighters at the top of their games, when every major heavyweight belt had been up for grabs for the first time this century.Since that original bout, boxing being boxing, Usyk had been stripped of his IBF title, now held by Dubois. But even the young Brit’s Wembley demolition job on Joshua couldn’t detract from the fact that Usyk and Fury are the two pre-eminent heavyweights of their era. Fury arrived with his controversial beard still intact, despite the protests of the Usyk camp. It was a beard you could lose a badger in. Perhaps the bushiest beard seen on a major British sporting figure since WG Grace was scoring runs for England in the Victorian age. The undercard had been short on quality, thrills or sensible judging and it was 1.30am local time before the main protagonists entered the arena.There were plenty of empty seats inside the 26,000-capacity venue and nothing like the fervour of an authentic big fight night at Wembley or in Las Vegas. But those days are largely gone with the Saudis controlling elite boxing and gearing up to host a World Cup and an Olympics in the 2030s. Still after a live drummer had battered his way through Eye of the Tiger, ringmaster Michael Buffer declared the party started. And Fury, dressed in a Santa robe, strode forward to the strains of All I Want For Christmas Is You. Fury had clowned around in that previous meeting seven months ago, dropping his guard, sticking out his tongue. Fury vs Usyk 2 – top storiesREAD MORE on a absolute blockbuster night in Riyadh…Tyson Fury cut a dejected figure after the result of the right was read outCredit: PAFury wanted to look at the scorecards shortly after hearing the resultCredit: TNT SPORTSFury was comforted by wife Paris as he made his way backstageCredit: TNT SPORTSDuring the build-up, he’d been in deadly serious form, yet he was a piece of pantomime from a man who has always been able to switch effortlessly from vaudeville to violence and back again. Usyk, in traditional Ukrainian fighting get-up, was in no mood for such frivolity. Before the first bell, Fury was goofing again, goggle-eyed and blowing kisses. The first was cagey and even but the second was Fury’s as he found his range with the jab then rocked the champion with a big right late on. With precious few Brits have made the journey to a bone-dry country during Christmas week, what crowd noise there was, favoured Usyk.The Ukrainian was more fluent in the third, setting about his work like a lumberjack trying to fell a mighty oak. The fourth was lively – Usyk inflicting pain with a combination to the body but Fury pinning him back later on.Usyk’s footwork was superior but when Fury landed, it told. In the fifth, the Brit delivered a vicious uppercut and then propelled the champion backwards with a couple of body shots.Yet Usyk is obdurate and he won the sixth with a couple of clubbing lefts, Fury looking unsettled and wild. It was impossibly close to call, Usyk’s speed giving him a slight edge in the near-silence of a largely unappreciative crowd.The sterile atmosphere better suited the cool-headed Ukrainian and late in the ninth he rocked Fury with a powerful left, after the Brit appeared to deliver a low blow.READ MORE SUN STORIESFury’s extra weight and the cumulative effect of Usyk’s body shots were taking their toll and the Gypsy King was tiring alarmingly by round ten.In the penultimate round a left hook rattled Fury’s skull and while the Brit landed a few desperate shots, Usyk finished up looking the more assured fighter by far.  More
