What has been said ahead of Fury vs Usyk 2?

Usyk has said: "I win again a second fight. I'll try cruiserweight again. I'll try."

Meanwhile, Fury has said: "I want the third fight. I want the trilogy. When I beat him on the 21st there'll be a third fight, 100 per cent. There has to be a trilogy. Can't wait. December 21 is my time. The belts are coming back home and there'll be a trilogy. An epic trilogy in '25."

He added: “When I look in the mirror I don’t see a quitter. I see a man who would do anything to keep going. If I get knocked down nine times, I’ll get up 10. If I didn’t want to do that, I wouldn’t be a boxer, I’d be doing something else, like playing darts. But this is my job. Before even the first fight, we had a rematch clause for a hell of a lot of money. I’d have to have no legs, no arms and half my head chopped off not to take the rematch. No eyeballs as well. I’d do it if I was blind.

“I need to be more focused this time and not do as much showboating. One of the commentators said: ‘Has anybody ever seen Tyson Fury clown this much against even lower level opposition?’ That’s how easy it was for me and you can get complacent.

“I won’t change anything. Why would I when I had control of the fight for maybe 80% of it? I’m landing on him at will, head and body, lead right uppercuts, left hooks, right hooks to the body, doubles at times. I don’t need to change anything. I don’t think he can, either, because he ain’t going to outbox me on the back foot. He has to come forward and make a fight of it.”
