There was no revenge for Tyson Fury.

Fury fell to Oleksandr Usyk yet again, losing their heavyweight boxing rematch Saturday by unanimous decision after suffering a split-decision defeat in their first fight seven months ago.
Usyk again demonstrated his superior technical skill and responded each time Fury went on the attack in their 12-round heavyweight fight at the Kingdom. Usyk proved far more accurate with his punches, landing 42% (179-of-423) compared to Fury’s 28% (144-of-509), according to DAZN.
All three judges scored it 116-112 for Usyk, who retained his WBC, WBA and WBO world heavyweight titles.
Usyk had no interest in discussing the judges’ scorecards.
“I win,’’ he said during a post-fight interview on the DAZN broadcast. “Is good.’’ He added: “An unbelievable 24 rounds for my career.”
Usyk, a 37-year-old Ukrainian, improved his record to 23-0.
Fury, a 36-year-old Brit, dropped to 34-2-1, with his only professional losses coming to Usyk.
Fury said afterwards he thought he won both fights against Usyk.
“I think he got a little Christmas gift from them judges,’’ Fury said. “Christmas gift early.’’
Next up: Usyk likely will face IBF heavyweight championship Daniel Dubois if Dubois beats Joseph Parker in their heavyweight match set for Feb. 22.
Dubois, the current IBF heavyweight champion, interrupted Usyk’s in-ring interview and called for another rematch. Dubois lost to Usyk by ninth-round knockout in August 2023.
“No problem,’’ Usyk said. “I’m ready.’’
What’s next for Tyson Fury?
It’s unclear what’s next for Fury, who has previously contemplated retirement.
Fury left too quickly for an in-ring interview. But the heavyweight’s future appears to be up in the air based on comments from Fury’s manager, Frank Warren.
“You know, it’s too early,’’ Warren said. “It’s just after a fight. Obviously emotions are running high.’’
Fury didn’t offer much insight at his post-fight presser.
“What’s next for me?’’ Fury said. “I’m going home and having some time off.’’’
Days before the rematch, Fury was profane and hostile in the presence of Usyk.
“You ugly, bug-eyed rat (expletive),” Fury shouted at Usyk this week.
Fury also roared, “You got a gift decision. I’m the man. I’m the (expletive) champion.”
But it was the 6-foot-3 Usyk who prevailed despite the 6-foot-9 Fury’s six-inch height advantage. Fury also outweighed Usyk by 55 pounds.
At the weigh-in, Fury was 281 pounds and Usyk was 226 pounds.
