Transcripts
okay so the Monumental once in history
or certainly once in a generation
heavyweight boxing clash and Riad Saudi
Arabia is done the dust has settled and
in the words of Highlander there can
only be one there can be only one
Undisputed heavyweight champion of the
world and that man's name is Alexander
usin that is correct he got the job done
he was victorious in Saudi Arabia
against Tyson Fury the Gypsy King he won
the fight by a split decision in what
was an absolute classic a fantastic
fight a great display from both men both
men having to dig deep show a lot of
heart entertaining the fans okay
tremendous fight now before we get into
the review first of all Tyson Fury
thinks that he was robbed feels that the
judges gave it to Alexander usyk because
Ukraine are at War they were his words
not mine other than that pretty graceful
inde defeat of course it was a close
back and forth fight he had some big
success early in the fight so in his
mind it feels like he won but he must
know not only in his mind in his body he
pretty much hit the canvas round nine
the ropes saved him right at the end of
the round it was scored a knocked down
from Alexander usk's side they feel that
the referee stopped a stoppage okay so
when the fight started I spoke about
this usyk being the shorter guy you
haven't got to be a scientist to work
this out he's got to close the range
okay he's got to get on the inside and
he's going to be the faster man with
faster feet and good head movement and
all the rest of it and that's how the
fight started for the first three rounds
it was pretty much Alexander usyk
controlling the fight with his footwork
and the left hand to the body and of
course forward pressure back in tyon
Fury up into the corner of course Fury
has got amazing reactions razor quick
Urban catac reflexes okay he was in the
corner he was showed and stuff like that
he looked comfortable he looked smooth
he looked happy he didn't look troubled
but even though those first three rounds
were very close I think usy got the job
done he was dominating he was pushing
him back he was Landing more shots and
he was kind of just inserting his will
however it's a 12 round Affair rounds
four five and six we saw a very
different fight we saw Tyson Fury step
it up we saw Tyson Fury go on the attack
stand his ground push usyk back and the
right uppercut that was the best shot
all night long from Tyson Fury that
right uppercut I think it was round 405
wobbled do sick not visibly not bad but
certainly had him a little shaking
certainly had him taken some backward
steps but of course as we know Alexander
usyk is not the type of man to give up
on himself so as the fight started to
progress into rounds four five and six
Tyson Fury was stared to own the fight
he was started to own the ring he was
certainly in charge using that massive
body that he has that gigantic frame
using the jab keeping usk on the outside
punking him a little bit every time he
got caught with a shot he was playing
around sticking his tongue out going in
the corner and doing all this stuff and
coming back with left's rights he looked
fast he looked powerful and he looked
extremely dangerous but the key is this
is a 12 round fight okay usk won the
first first three Fury probably won the
next three however there's 12 rounds and
the pace was absolutely Furious well
done to Tyson Fury to be able to
maintain that kind of pace throughout 12
rounds it's hard for anybody okay but
when you're 6'9 and you weigh the amount
that Tyson Fury does to be able to still
go toe to- Toe with Alexander usyk at
that kind of crazy Pace that really is
something special we've always spoke
about it Tyson Fury doesn't have the
most athletic body and that's an
understatement but the man is an athlete
that's as simple as that but as I say
still six rounds to go and as those last
six rounds started going on Tyson Fury
started to slow a bit and usyk started
to grow in confident started to do a
little bit better there was a bit of
concern from the talk of the referees
from Steve bun saying listen we're
almost in a territory where usyk now is
going to be coming from behind where
he's going to need a stoppage well the
stoppage almost came in round nine
Alexander USI landed that left hand to
the Head followed it up had Tyson Fury
wobbled all over the place Tyson backing
up trying to get away from him trying to
get space and usyk would just not let
off right at the end of round nine boom
kind of drops him gets saved by the
ropes the referee steps in gives him a
count and as soon as they came back from
the count that was the end of the round
so going into round 10 in a very very
close fight everything was to play for
because the knock down in round nine of
course if you know boxing that scored a
108 round so that made it almost even
going into round 10 or maybe Tyson Fury
up one round it meant there was
everything to play for and more
importantly everything to fight for and
at that stage at the fight right they're
both taking each other's shots they're
both hurt they're both wobbled they're
both tired it's all about who wants it
more who's willing to push themselves to
that level who's willing to dig deep and
forget about the pain and just keep
going and enjoy the kind of torture that
the human body is going through cuz let
me tell you their lungs are burning
their jaws are aching their hands are
aching their shoulders are on fire they
just want to sit down and have a drink
have a beer just do anything apart from
getting punched in the face but what
kind of man are you right that's what
it's all about in rounds 11 and 12 in a
fight like that with two tremendous
boxers two of the best of Our Generation
who wanted it more well round 11 usyk
went out there stole it close rounds
other than round nine I don't think any
round was a landslide for either man
there was some Sensational skill from
both men on display round 11 I gave it
to usyk round 12 I probably gave it to
Tyson Fury Tyson really impressed me in
round 12 with his resolve with his
resilience with his recovery ability of
course we've seen that before when he
was dropped against Deontay Wilder
managed to take himself up off the
canvas and then go on the attack okay
but in round 12 when he looked like he
was tired when he should be the most
exhausted throughout the fight he had
one of his best rounds in the last three
or four so when he went to the judges
scorecards I honestly had no idea my
brain said more than likely all
Alexander usyk wins by maybe a point but
I had a funny feeling that there was
going to be a draw certainly when you
remember that there's four promotions
belts on the line okay and we've seen
some crazy decisions in the world of
boxing but of course it was announced it
was a split decision the winner was
Alexander usk and he was very gracious
in Victory just as Tyson was gracious in
defeat now Fury was asked about the
rematch he said listen we're going to do
it October we're coming back 100% I
believe I won that fight I believe he
won a few with the rounds but I won
majority of them and run it back in
October good luck to Alexander well done
God bless you Happy New Year us agreed
to that as well so the reality is we are
going to get to see this we are going to
see a round two and it's going to be
phenomenal and I can't wait because that
was a tremendous boxing fire regardless
of the fact that Alexander usk is now
the Undisputed champion of the world
which is just unbelievable remember
that's the first time that's been
contested for this Century it was 1999
iander holfield versus LX Lewis when
somebody last became the Undisputed
heavyweight champion of the world that
is unbelievable and of course when you
look at the rematch it's going to be
about what can they do differently I
don't really know if Tyson Fury can get
in better shape than what he was right
that was a furious pace and maybe
Alexander usyk was willing to lose a
couple of rounds on the scorecards by
pressuring so much to get Tyson Fury
tired in the later rounds if that's what
he was doing if that was kind of the
game plan to lose a couple of rot close
rounds to force the action out of Tyson
Fury then that was absolutely genius
game planning because that's essentially
what we saw and of course for Alexander
usyk a man that Tyson Fury called the
middleweight called him the Run Rabbit
Run Rabbit and all the rest of it the
sausage all the rest of his dad head
butting people at the start of fight
week this was just a nice way to say you
know what shut up I'm the better man now
of course Tyson Fury ain't going to
change and that's why we all tune in and
that's why we love him that's why we boo
him I'm a big fan I think the man is
absolutely charismatic he brings a lot
to the world of boxing and the rematch
guaranteed is going to be even better so
there it is Alexander usyk you should be
very proud of yourself unbelievable
tremendous night of fights who did you
have winning let me know in the
scorecards um you might have noticed
I've got a jazzy Shir on I'm in Costa
Rica I spent four days in Costa Rica and
all of a sudden I've got Spanish accent
