Moment Tyson Fury tells Oleksandr Usyk ‘you look like a sexy beast’ as heavyweight boxer shows off new look
TYSON FURY dubbed Oleksandr Usyk a “sexy beast” after getting a closer peek at his new look.
The former undisputed heavyweight champion stunned boxing fans in October when he turned up to a pre-fight press conference dressed as Agent 47 from the ‘Hitman’ video game series.

Usyk, 37, even shaved off all his hair in homage to the beloved video game character.
And Fury said of Usyk’s new look with a smile on his face: “He looks like a sexy beast.”
“It suits him. The shaved him suits him. He looks sexy.”
Explaining his new barnet, or lack of one, undefeated Ukrainian Usyk said: “Hair has a memory.
“Because my first fight [with Tyson] is in the past. And now, it’s the present and my focus is the 21st of December.”
Fury and Usyk will run back their classic May melee in Saudi Arabia, although not all the heavyweight marbles will be on the line.
Slick southpaw Usyk became the first undisputed king of the heavyweights in nearly 25 years courtesy of a split decision victory.
Fury fumed in the aftermath of his first professional defeat, claiming Usyk was gifted the decision as his country is “at war” with Russia.

And the Wythenshawe warrior WON’T walk back on his comments, saying: “No, I don’t regret anything.
“Why would I regret that? Listen it was a close fight. Usyk got the [hand] raised like he just said and he won the fight. Fair play to him.
“[I] don’t make excuses. The man beat me on the night – fair play. I believe I won the fight and that’s my opinion.
“Just like if you had an opinion, he had an opinion and everybody had an opinion.
“But he got his hand raised and I congratulated him. It’s on TV to see.
“I kissed his cross and said thank you very much and happy New Year When we go again, we go again.”
Fury insists he bears no ill will to Usyk, adding: “There’s no animosity, I don’t hate Usyk. He’s a good God-fearing Christian family man.
“Why would I hate him? And he’s made me millions of dollars. I love him. I’ve got no hate.

“You can’t make hate between these two. He’s a boxer, I’m a boxer; it was a great fight.
“Regardless of the decision. I’ve said this a million times, that’s fantastic for him and his family. Well done, congratulations.
“Like you said, God gave him the result. Fantastic. But regardless of that, even from my point of view, it was a great fight to watch for the fans.
“I’m sure that they were entertained. It had everything.
“It had me doing great things, him doing great things and it was a great fight.
“And that’s why we get to do it again on December 21.”
