Fury then decided to storm out of the ring, while he later said Usyk had been given the victory as a ‘Christmas gift’.
New footage uploaded by Happy Punch has now showed just how angry he was, with Fury ranting as he walked back to the dressing room.
He started by saying: “All the pros, Oscar De La Hoya, everybody, had me four rounds up! It is what it is.”

When one of his entourage complained there was ‘no way’ the judges had scored it 116-112 in Usyk’s favour, he added: “It’s a no hoper then, completely.
“Every f***ing round. I was robbed there. F**k them.”
Fury had put in the work prior to his clash with Usyk, having spent three months away from his family and worked tirelessly in the gym.

But all of those sacrifices failed to pay off, with Usyk securing the 23rd victory of his professional career to maintain his unbeaten record in the sport.
Boxing fans have reacted to the footage on social media, with many feeling Fury has no right to complain given Usyk’s disiciplined performance on the night.
One user said: “Usyk pieced him up damn near every round. i had it 8 to 4. The fight was not close.”

A second stated: “Pure Masterclass by Usyk. I’m a huge Tyson fan but sometimes fights are all about stylistic matchups, and Usyks counters proved too much to handle.”
Another opined: “Some decisions are highly controversial, the winner of this fight was not one of them. The right man was rightfully crowned.”
And a fourth insisted: “The delusion started when he got a draw for being KO’d by [Deontay] Wilder. It’s been growing ever since. Usyk destroyed Fury. It wasn’t even close. Out of the 24 rounds they experienced in the ring, Usyk won at least 17 of them.”
