“He is an amazing human” – Fans react to Oleksandr Usyk’s “classy” response to Tyson Fury taking extreme measures for rematch 

Fans praised Oleksandr Usyk for having the opposite perspective from Tyson Fury about seeing his family during his training camp.

Usyk and Fury clashed in a highly-anticipated undisputed heavyweight world title fight in May, with the former winning by split decision. Later this week, Fury plans to avenge the defeat when they meet for a rematch in Saudi Arabia.

Usyk recently did an interview with TNT Sports. The reporter told the heavyweight king that Fury reportedly hasn't talked to his family in months to prepare for their historic rematch. Usyk responded by saying:

"I speak with my wife every day, every time, every second, every minute. My children too. It helps me because it's my family. For me, it doesn't matter what Tyson does. For me, it matters what I do."

Fans responded in the comment section on Twitter with praise:

"Usyk is classy man. Tyson is half degenerate."

"He's an amazing human"

"Love him. I’m English but I have always rode with usyk for years hope he sparks fury out this time without the ref saving Tyson."

"Exactly , of course it helps you and your family , I don’t believe Tyson is telling the truth but if he is there’s no need to do that to yourself or your family…."

Tyson Fury claimed Oleksandr Usyk won't want trilogy fight after their second meeting

The rematch between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk has arguably gained more popularity than their first meeting. If Fury avenges his defeat against Usyk on Saturday, the legendary heavyweight boxers would be destined for a trilogy fight, which could be the biggest fight to make in 2025.

During an interview with TNT Sports, Fury had this to say about his belief that Usyk won't want to fight for a third time:

"What I'm gonna do to him, it's going to be that bad of a beating on Saturday night, he ain't gonna want to have a trilogy, and I'm hoping there's going to be a trilogy because all great dance partners have trilogies." [9:45-10:01]

Oleksandr Usyk vs. Tyson Fury 2 will take place inside the Kingdom Arena in Saudi Arabia. The December 21 undercard features Serhii Bohachuk vs. Ishmael Davis, Moses Itauma, Johnny Fisher, and more.
