 "Usyk vs Fury 2: All you need to know about upcoming heavyweight boxing rematch")
Tyson Fury will be eyeing revenge when he faces Oleksandr Usyk in a rematch for boxing’s heavyweight championship, with the ‘Gypsy King’ promising less clowning and more punching this time aroundr. Usyk had defeated British boxer Fury by split decision when the two had traded blows in a highly-anticipated showdown in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on 18 May this year.
The Ukrainian pugilist, who boasts of a 21-0 record including 14 wins by knockout, had thus became the first four-belt heavyweight champion of the modern era on the historic night in the Saudi Arabian capital, and will be putting three of the four titles that he is still in possession of on the line later this week.
Seven months after suffering his first defeat as a pro, Fury doesn’t plan a radically different approach to his rematch against ‘The Cat’, other than doing his best to avoid leaving the result to the judges.
“I’ll just throw more this time. Keep hitting him in the face more often than I did last time,” Fury, who has won 34 out of his 36 bouts till date with one loss and a draw, had said last Wednesday.
