Frank Warren is more than confident that Tyson Fury will exact his revenge on Oleksandr Usyk.

‘The Gypsy King’ lost on a split decision to Usyk in May as he was denied the opportunity to become the first undisputed heavyweight champion of the four-belt era.

Usyk got off to a bright start in the four-belt shootout, but was outboxed in the middle rounds by a confident Fury.

The Ukrainian then rallied in the second half of the fight, winning the eighth frame before dropping and nearly stopping Fury in the ninth stanza en route to a hard-fought victory.

In the end, the tight scorecards read 115-112 to Usyk, 114-113 to Fury, and 114-113 to Usyk with the knockdown proving to be decisive.

“People talk like he was slaughtered or something in that fight, there was nothing in the fight, it was a split decision,” Warren told the Queenberry Promotions YouTube channel.

“There was nothing in the fight and I’m telling you next time around it will be a really, really keenly fought fight, there’s no doubt about that.”

Fury blamed his loss on having ‘too much fun’ in the ring and there were moments in the fight where the Brit intentionally let down his guard to taunt and mock his foe.

Warren insists that remaining focused and sticking to his boxing will be his client’s keys to victory.

“Yep, yep [he can win] all he’s got to do is do what he did in the earlier rounds and stay focused,” he added.

Fury and Usyk are now set to run it back on December 21 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia with only the WBA, WBO and WBC belts on the line after Usyk vacated the IBF strap to pursue the rematch.

“Immediately after the fight he wanted the rematch, that’s how he is,” Warren continued.

“He wants to put it right because he knows how close the fight was. He felt he won the fight, I felt he just nicked it, but irrespective of that he didn’t get the decision, but it was a close fight.

“I know he genuinely feels he should have won it, and I’m not talking about the decision, I’m talking about he should have won it and he could have won it.

“And he knows what he’s got to do next time to make that happen.

“At the end of that seventh round when they went back to the corner I genuinely thought that was it.

“Everybody around him as well. There were a few of Usyk’s people sat behind us and they all felt the same thing.

“But Usyk got it together, he came out, caught Tyson on the nose and Tyson seemed to lose a bit of focus for some reason.

“And Usyk had a big round the next round when he nearly had Tyson out.”
