"It helped me." Usyk made a confession about the rematch with Fury. Video
Ukrainian world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (23-0, 14 KOs), the WBC, WBO, WBA and IBO champion, admitted that positive emotions from his children helped him to win a second victory over Tyson Fury (34-2-1, 24 KOs). On the eve of the fight, both sons of the Ukrainian showed good results in martial arts.
"Today both my sons won judo competitions. Mikhail won an orange belt and Kirill won a green belt. Kirill said to me: 'Dad, you're next. Okay?' Okay. I also received two new belts – a themed belt from the WBC and The Ring," Oleksandr said at a press conference.
As OBOZ.UA previously reported, on the night of Sunday, December 22, in the ring in Riyadh (Saudi Arabia), Usyk defeated Tyson Fury again and defended his titles. The seventh fight of the Ukrainian in the super-heavyweight division ended with a victory on points 116:112, 116:112, 116:112.
Immediately after the fight, impressive punch statistics and referee notes were published. It also became known who the artificial intelligence judge gave the victory to.

It is worth noting that after the winner was announced, Usyk raised a unique artifact above him.
Commenting on his success, the Ukrainian champion dedicated it to all the mothers of our country.
At the post-match press conference, Tyson Fury impressed journalists with his appearance. His face, which had been hit by more than 100 precise punches from the Ukrainian, was decorated with bruises and abrasions.
Vasyl Lomachenko did not ignore the rematch between Usyk and Fury. Oleksandr's godfather and friend left a laconic message on social media.
