Tyson Fury‘s wife Paris was in attendance at the press conference as the Gypsy King prepares to rematch Oleksandr Usyk on Saturday night.

After suffering his first career defeat when he battled the Ukrainian over 12 rounds in May, Fury has embarked on a period of familial seclusion in order to prepare for the rematch.

The 36-year-old claimed earlier this week that he had not spoken to Paris for three months as he locked himself away for his training camp.

Fury’s ‘beast mode’ mentality extends to his physical appearance as well. Having sported a clean-shaven look in recent times, the Gypsy King has flipped the script entirely.

Speaking about his training camp, Fury told TNT Sports presenter Dev Sahni: ‘It’s been a long camp. Been away from my wife and kids for three months, I’ve not spoken to Paris at all for three months, not one word. Yeah, I’ve sacrificed a lot.’

However, at the final press conference ahead of Saturday’s blockbuster showdown, Fury was reunited with Paris, his wife of 16 years.

Paris was flanked by their son Prince, and Fury’s half-brother Tommy as they took their seats in the front row.

She then watched on from the crowd as Fury and Usyk engaged in a intense staredown to close the event, with the head-to-head lasting over ten minutes.

The warring rivals were eventually pulled apart as they prepare to step in the ring in the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh on Saturday.

Speaking during the event Fury was uncharacteristically concise in his remarks as he promised he was solely focused on the task at hand.

‘I’ve got nothing to say, apart from there’s going to be a whole lot of hurt and pain in this fight you watch.’ Fury insisted.

‘That’s all I got to say. Talking’s been done. You know, the first fight I talked, I joked, through all my career.

‘This time I’m serious. I’m going to do some f***ing damage here on Saturday night.  Watch me go to work on this f*****.’
