Tyson Fury's Uncle Names the Best Opponent in His Career

Tyson Fury's uncle and former trainer, Peter Fury, has named Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk as the best opponent in his nephew's career.

«I think it was a good fight; he did everything he could – that's all you can ask for. Usyk is an exceptional champion. I've always said that this guy is a great fighter, the best Tyson has faced, that's for sure.

But it was a close battle. Fury is big but didn't use his size. I think it shouldn't have been that way, but that's just my opinion.

I believe they chose the wrong tactics and developed the wrong game plan, but it was a good fight worth watching,» said Fury.

Usyk became a two-time undisputed world champion after defeating Tyson Fury. A rematch may take place at the end of 2024.
