Former unified heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs) is confident that he will avenge his loss to WBC/WBA/WBO heavyweight world champion Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) on DAZN PPV Saturday from the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

How does it feel to be the biggest show in Riyadh?

“I’m the only show in town. This time around everything is pretty much the same. It’s the biggest event of my life, so in that regard it’s pretty much the same. From one biggest event to the next biggest event. I’m looking forward to putting on a show as always.”

What can we expect differently in round 13?

“I’m going to knock him out. I’m going to give Turki what I promised him in May, a cooked rabbit in his kitchen. That’s my promise!”

What is your favorite moment of this week?

“My favorite moment will be getting my hand raised on Saturday night.”

  • I am pretty sure we all have heard Fury’s blowhard predictions in the past promising this and that. Yet, in the first fight, his own prediction was far from the actual outcome against Usyk. Either way, I will be glad when Fury retires from boxing. A little bit of him goes a long way in terms of social tolerance with his blowhard mouth. I respect Usyk’s humble approach and great sportsmanship in boxing.

  • Fury, 34-1-1, Usyk, 22-0.
    And the guy who wrote this, his first sentence he puts Fury’s record as undefeated and then says he is going to try to avenge his only loss.
    But, it doesn’t matter with the amount these guys are gonna get paid. 37 (almost 38) and 36 year old boxers should retire after cashing in one last time.

  • He grew a beard to get a little extra cushioning in the jaw, huh? Beards in boxing, one of my pet peeves.

    • Beards are for hipsters and dudes that are too lazy to shave. Jeremiah Johnson was a mountain man not a yuppie. Waiting for all the haters with beards to give the thumbs down. All of the renaissance men. Ever notice all the bald guys have to have facial hair to make up for the lack on top? They feel naked without the hair lip and chin fuzz.
      Go ahead all you hairy bastards. Flip me off.
      Facial hair does not make you manly. Did
      Geromimo need a mustache? Did General Patton? Did Muhammad Ali? Make America
      clean shaven again. S-H-A-V-E! And lose the
      earring. There’s nothing manly about a man wearing an earring. If your grandpa didn’t wear an earring, you shouldn’t either!

      • C’mon all you scruffy haters! Pile on, bro!
        I need more thumbs down! Give it up!
        Get some! HAHAHA!!!!!

    • Actually I’d give Fury a better chance than that. He was way ahead after the 7th round in the first fight. He let Usyck back into the fight and he paid for it. I don’t think that will happen this time.

  • Rumor has it Putin is furys cut man and Biden is uysk cut man with trump as the third man can anyone verify that information for me and let me know
