Tyson Fury and Usyk pulled apart at heated presser after butting heads as undisputed heavyweight clash confirmed
TYSON FURY and Oleksandr Usyk had to be separated following a heated face-off to promote their February undisputed fight.
The pair went face-to-face on Thursday afternoon following a heated press conference in London.
Tempers were high after a fired-up Fury berated the undefeated Ukrainian for most for the majority of the presser.
And things almost kicked off after they went eye-to-eye with one another.
Fury, 35, nearly created a ruckus by putting his noggin on Usyk’s forehead as he tried to put the fear of God in him.
Usyk, however, was unmoved and pushed The Gypsy back.
And that prompted security to intervene and quickly separate the duo before premature blows were thrown.
Boxing fans were quick to comment on the chaotic scenes, with one writing on X: “Fury’s head “enter Oleksandr Usyk”
Another said: “Can’t wait!”
And another said: “In February, all the nonsense that has led to this fight will be over.”

One remarked: “Come on Tyson!!!!!”
Another chimed in: “Fury knows he’s f***ed.”
Despite Usyk standing his grown, Fury insists he saw fear in the unified heavyweight champion.
The undefeated WBC king said: “I think he’s scared to death. He’s rattled.
“His balls are twitching now, boys. His a***hole is flapping.”
Former pound-for-pound king Usyk believes Fury’s shenanigans are borne out of fear.
He said: “The man behaves like that when he’s afraid and he doesn’t feel comfort.
“He’s not sure about anything.”
