Usyk 'will feel the wrath and the menace', Fury warns ahead of rematch

Tyson Fury feels he has a point to prove this weekend, as the Gypsy King looks to avenge his defeat by Oleksandr Usyk in May.

Tyson Fury vowed Oleksandr Usyk will "feel the wrath and the menace" in their eagerly anticipated rematch on Saturday.

The pair will collide once more in Riyadh for what will be a repeat of their heavyweight world title bout in May, which Usyk won via a split decision.

The Ukrainian became the first undisputed heavyweight champion in the four-belt era after weathering an early storm of huge uppercuts, before sending Fury into the ropes in round nine.

The Gypsy King's attempted late rally proved academic as he suffered the first defeat of his professional career.

Fury hopes he can avenge that loss and force a third clash.

"He threw his best shots. He had 10 shots on target, all on target, never dropped me. So, if he couldn't drop me when I was on Bambi legs, God be with him this time," Fury told Sky Sports.

"I think he had his best shots to get me out of there and didn't do it. Hit me with your best shot, I looked back at him and smiled, and he's going to feel the wrath and the menace this time. I've got a point to prove.

"After the fight, they said he had a broken face bone or a broken jaw. Something to do with that. I didn't feel like I lost the fight then, I didn't feel like I lost the fight after watching it back. So, it's subjective to people's opinions.

"It was a close fight and that's what happens in close fights, I suppose. It could go either way."

And Fury insists he knows what he must do this time in order to turn the contest in his favour.

"With it [the count] being towards the end of the fight, I suppose the judges must have saw that and banked on it a little bit more than they would have done if it didn't happen," he added.

"A little bit less fooling and a little bit more focus, laser focus and I should do the job. I feel ready to rock and roll. I'll be ready to do the business."
