Oleksandr Usyk spotted working on trademark move in training… but here’s why it WON’T work against Tyson FuryThe heavyweight is fighting in the early hours of the morning in Saudi, so he gets to bed late and enjoys a lie in to accustom to the time difference.

He said: “With Tyson, he’s not a big fan of veg, so I cook a lot for long periods of time to mask the flavour. READ MORE SUN STORIES”I’ll do it with chicken broth or bone broth. Or you can do it in a rice for a long period of time, so you can’t really taste it and blend it in. “But as the camp progresses, obviously veg has got to go up to make sure they’re getting all their micronutrients.” Fury’s fight week diet
