Usyk vs. Fury 2 Result: Christmas present or not, Usyk vs. Fury 2 was no rip-off at all!

Boxing fans love a good argument, but sometimes it just doesn’t work. The heavyweight division has seen its share of questionable decisions over the years. But Oleksandr Usyk’s victory over Fury in their rematch doesn’t appear to be one of them.

The stats confirm what most fans saw: Usyk was sharper, more precise, and simply put in more effort. But fans have to love Fury’s fighting spirit – it’s what made him a champion in the first place. But sometimes you have to tip your hat to the best man on the night, and in Riyadh, that man was clearly Oleksandr Usyk.

Boxing has evolved from the days when people counted knockouts and knockouts to determine the winner. Today’s fights come with a whole list of statistics that tell us exactly what happened in the ring, punch by punch.

Now let’s get to the point. Over the course of 12 rounds, Oleksandr Usyk landed 179 punches compared to Tyson Fury’s 144. However, winning isn’t just about how many punches a fighter lands; it’s also about how many punches he actually lands.And here’s where things get really interesting: Usyk landed 42.3% (about 75 punches) of his strikes, while Tyson landed just 28.3% (about 40 punches). That’s almost a two-fold difference in punches thrown.

The judges’ scorecards confirmed what the numbers showed, with all three judges scoring it 116-112 in favour of Oleksandr Usyk. The ninth round was a tale of Fury’s struggles – he landed 18 straight blows and only one!

Tyson Fury not happy about alleged theftThroughout history, fans have seen champions deal with losses in different ways – some gracefully, some with denial. Now Tyson Fury is adding his own chapter to that tradition, and it’s a particularly stinging one.

The “Gypsy King” has not given up on his second defeat to Oleksandr Usyk. Fury claims the judges gave Usyk an “early 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡day present” with their scorecards of 116-112. That’s a bold statement.

“I know I had to knock him out, but that’s boxing and it happens,” Fury said at the post-fight press conference. “I have no doubt I won this fight. Frank [Warren] beat me three or four rounds, and a lot of people beat me at least two rounds. I’m not going to cry over spilled milk, it’s over now.”His promoter Frank Warren joined the protest. Warren praised Fury’s striking and footwork, and when Usyk heard Warren’s comments, he slammed him hard, saying: “Uncle Frank, I think he’s blind.”

Fury’s refusal to accept defeat may seem unpopular to some, but it’s also part of what makes him such a compelling figure in the boxing world. He’s never been one to bite his tongue or play it safe with his words. However, claiming you’ve won both fights against a man who’s just beaten you twice is a bit of a stretch, even for him.
