Francis Ngannou for Pro Boxing Fans
I would have scored the fight closer than that. Maybe Usyk could have still won. I mean, at the end of the fight, it wasn't sure that anybody [was a clear winner]. From my scorecard, it was closer than that.
In May 2024, Usyk defeated Fury by split decision and became the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world. He boasts a record of 23 wins (14 by knockout) and no losses. Tyson Fury has 34 wins (24 by knockout), two losses, and one draw.
