Fury unbothered by first Usyk loss
Tyson Fury claims he hasn't given his defeat to Oleksandr Usyk in May much thought ahead of their rematch on Saturday.
Tyson Fury insists he has not given his first-ever professional defeat, at the hands of Oleksandr Usyk in May, much thought as the pair prepare for their rematch this weekend.
Fury had been undefeated as a boxer for 17 years prior to that fight, since losing an amateur bout to Maksim Babanin in 2007.
But the Gypsy King says he is unfazed by the past and is only focused on reclaiming his WBC Heavyweight title on Saturday.
He told Sky Sports: "I haven't had any thoughts about it really. It hasn't affected me.
"I haven't done anything different to what I would have done had I got the decision.
"I've not really thought about it to be fair. I don't focus on the past, I just concentrate on the day in hand."
