The Gypsy King’ fell to the first defeat of his professional career against Usykin May but he will have the opportunity to exact his revenge on December 21when they run it back in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Fury admits he knows where he went wrong in their inaugural encounter and has told fans to expect a far more aggressive approach to the rematch.
After drawing with Deontay Wilder in their first fight back in 2020, Fury packed on 17lbs for their sequel and blasted out ‘The Bronze Bomber’ in seven rounds.
It appears Fury is looking to adopt the same weight tactics for his second outing with Usyk as he showed off a bulky physique during recent photos from his camp.
Reacting to his shape on social media, one fan wrote: “He looks heavy.”
Another added: “In excellent shape. Wilder 2 vibes.”
A third wrote: “Usyk is gonna get beat up this time around and we’ll get the trilogy.”
Meanwhile, somebody else remarked: “My word. Fury looks massive.”
Fury’s coach Andy Lee claims Fury was unable to do any proper sparring ahead of his last outing with Usyk after sustaining a cut above his right before their initial planned meeting.
But one month out from the rematch, Fury is getting some rounds in with WBC bridgerweight champion Kevin Lerena.
