“I was in there with a local amateur boxer” – Tyson Fury’s “delusional” claim about Oleksandr Usyk fight sets social media ablaze
The boxing world is buzzing once again after Tyson Fury’s recent comments on his heavyweight title fight loss to Oleksandr Usyk last month.
Fury, whose undefeated record was shattered in the May clash, initially blamed the judges’ decision on geopolitical factors. Now, however, he has a new explanation: Usyk was simply too easy to hit.During a recent appearance on FUROCITY By Tyson Fury’s YouTube channel, Fury claimed the Usyk fight “was actually a lot easier than I thought it would be.”He said:
“At times, it was too easy. It was like I was in there with a local amateur boxer, and I was just enjoying it too much, messing around. Paid the ultimate price in round nine where I got a 10-8 round and got clipped. That’s what happens when you have too much fun. They always tell me ‘Never mix your work with having fun’ and I always gave them the middle finger, and it’s come back now to me!”
