Oleksandr Usyk v Tyson Fury 2 - Press Conference

Tyson Fury is in a dark mood leading into his rematch against Oleksandr Usyk in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia this weekend.

Tyson Fury was not messing around during the last press conference for this weekend’s big rematch against Oleksandr Usyk on DAZN pay-per-view (PPV).

The two top boxers met in May where Usyk unified the heavyweight titles with a split decision win over Fury. Now they’ll fight again on December 21st, and Fury is promising to put Usyk in the hospital.

“I’m gonna dish out a whole lot of pain,” Fury said. “I’m gonna put this f—er in the hurt locker for sure.”

Fury is normally in a much more jovial mood during fight week, but he’s a different man coming off his first career loss.

“I got nothing to say apart from than there’s going to be a whole lot of hurt and pain in this fight,” he declared. “You watch. That’s all I got to say. The talking’s been done. The first fight, I talked, I joked, all me career. This time I’m serious. I’m gonna do some f—ing damage here on Saturday night. Watch me go to work on this f—er.”

Usyk was also a man of few words.

“Don’t be afraid,” he replied. “I will not leave you alone. See you on Saturday.”

Much has been made of the wild eleven minute staredown Fury and Usyk engaged in following the press conference. Neither man would walk away, turning this into the longest face off we’ve ever seen in combat sports. After, Fury blew off some of the steam that had built up.

“The rabbit’s getting it! Rabbit’s getting f—ed!” he yelled at Usyk. “You’re getting it, son. Butchered this time. Smashed to pieces! You were the best you’ve ever been and you still couldn’t do s—. Still can’t. F— all. You don’t be afraid, you ugly bastard! Don’t you be afraid, you rabbit f—ing f—er … I won’t leave you alone! No leaving alone for you! You are f—ed.”

“I’ll annihilate you! You’re gonna wake up in the hospital! You ugly bug eyed rat bastard!”
