Tyson Fury announced such a decisive victory over Oleksandr Usyk that the Ukrainian will never step into a boxing ring again.

Fury wants to take revenge for the first defeat of his career when he faces Usyk for the second time on Saturday in Riyad.

“The Gypsy King” suffered, among others, loss of split decision in May, and Usyk became the undisputed heavyweight champion.

Fury will have no chance of winning the undisputed title on Saturday after Usyk relinquished the IBF belt, currently held by Daniel Dubois.

Fury insists he wants to end the 37-year-old’s career when they fight for the WBC, WBA and WBO titles.

“I will definitely make him feel 37 years aged,” Fury said Queensberry Promotions.

– He’ll be there with the Gypsy King, not whoever I was last time.

“I had a very good camp.

“I sparred more than I had in years and was able to do the things I’ve always been able to do, which is push myself.

“I would be first if I wasn’t able to fight and all that, I wouldn’t want to go in there and risk getting beaten up for a few extra pounds that I wouldn’t be able to do anything with anyway.

“So if I didn’t feel like I wasn’t the same person, I would be the first to say, ‘You know what, I’ve had enough.’

“But I don’t. I’m very far from that.

“I feel very good and I can’t wait for Saturday’s fight.

“I’m going to end him, end his career.

“You will never hear from Oleksandr Usyk again after this.”

The Briton had a disastrous ninth round, in which, after falling into the rope several times, he counted standing, which turned out to be decisive for the result.

Saudi Arabia’s boxing boss, Turki Alalshikh he supported the 36-year-old in winning the rematch and was already planning to create a trilogy between this pair.

Logan Paul previously slammed Conor McGregor, calling him a “terrible boxer” – and now it looks like the pair may settle their differences in the ring in India.

McGregor has stirred the combat sports world by announcing on social media his tentative agreement to an exhibition fight with the YouTuber-turned-boxer, temporarily putting his UFC career on ice. “Rumors of a fight with [UFC champion Illia] Topurias are false. I am in preliminary agreements with the Ambani family to face Logan Paul at a boxing event in India. I agreed. Then I will strive to return to the octagon,” declared McGregor.

While Paul is yet to respond to McGregor’s latest claims, he has previously issued a challenge to the Irish fighter ahead of his fight with Dillon Danis, McGregor’s former teammate. “Conor McGregor is an average MMA fighter and a terrible boxer,” Paul assured. “I’m going to kick his son of a bitch Dillon and then I’m going to beat the crap out of him.”

Paul also mocked McGregor for not backing Danis with a massive bet. “He scared me, he won’t even bet a million dollars on his player. That’s a petite thing for a guy like Conor, he won’t even bet a million dollars on Dillon. He had nothing to say when I called him out on Twitter. Do you think he will go there himself? I don’t know, it seems unlikely to me.”

After his victory over Danis, Paul provocatively asked McGregor: “Conor McGregor, do you see that? I picked up your son of a bitch, put him on a leash and took him for a walk. Who is the real warrior now?” McGregor has been out of the ring for more than three years since breaking his leg in the first round of his trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier. His only victory since 2016 was a quick 40-second knockout of Donald Cerrone in 2020.

After defeating Eddie Alvarez in two rounds eight years ago, McGregor suffered defeats to Floyd Mayweather, Khabib Nurmagomedov and twice to Poirier. The comeback against Michael Chandler this summer was canceled on two weeks’ notice due to a broken toe.

Last month, McGregor was found guilty of assaulting Nikita Hand in a Dublin hotel in December 2018 and ordered to pay his victim more than £200,000. Paul, the older brother of boxer Jake, made his debut against KSI in 2018, drawing with his social media rival in Manchester before losing to him in Los Angeles a year later.

He then fought Mayweather in a no-scoring exhibition fight before winning over Danis last year. Since then, Paul has focused on his WWE career, but announced his retirement on the latest episode of his podcast. “I’m retired,” he announced. “Come on, I’m retired. I’m dad, bro.”

Peter McGrail’s place on the card of Tyson Fury’s highly anticipated rematch with Oleksandr Usyk was saved after a last-minute replacement opponent was secured.

McGrail was initially scheduled to fight Dennis McCann in Saudi Arabia on Saturday, but the fight was canceled when McCann failed a drug test. After a slow search, undefeated Rhys Edwards agreed to step in, bringing his impressive 16-0 record to the ring. Edwards was preparing to fight Leon Woodstock in Sheffield next month, but will now face McGrail instead.

In a social media post, Saudi boxing boss Turki Alalshikh confirmed the novel fight, stating: “It is now confirmed that Peter McGrail will remain on the list for Saturday’s fight against undefeated British fighter Rhys Edwards in the #Usyk2Fury rematch.”

The substance that led to McCann failing the test has not been disclosed, but his promoter Queensberry issued a statement saying: “The Voluntary Anti-Doping Association (VADA) today informed all interested parties that Dennis McCann returned an unfavorable result in the anti-doping test.” conducted ahead of Mr. McCann’s upcoming fight next Saturday will not take place as the relevant parties investigate the matter further.

Meanwhile, Fury has announced that he will limit his spectacular antics in the rematch with Oleksandr Usyk, but he does not see the need to make any major changes to his strategy. The heavyweight rivals will clash again next Saturday in Riyad, with Fury looking to make up for the split decision loss in May that made Usyk the division’s first undisputed champion since Lennox Lewis in 1999.

Despite dominating the middle rounds, some say Fury’s repeated displays cost him when he was leading. The “Gypsy King” maintains that his bravado was due to the fight being too effortless, but now he is ready to take the advice of promoter Frank Warren and “get to the point.”

“I don’t think my showing cost me the fight, but this time I have to be more focused and not do so much,” Fury said. “One commentator picked up on this and said, ‘Has anyone ever seen Tyson Fury clown around like that, even against a lower-ranked opponent?’ It was so effortless for me to play there and you can get complacent about it.

“I’m just going to apply my box like I did last time. I’m not going to do anything drastic like completely change my game plan because that’s not necessary. If it was five, six or seven rounds the other way and it was a landslide, so it’s OK. Then I would have to change something drastic.
