It was such a great fight and it was such a controversial fight. A lot of people thought Tyson pulled it out, some people felt that Usyk deserved the win he got.

Let's see what happens in the rematch. I think there will be a lot of interest and, win or lose, I would love to see Tyson who I believe will win the rematch."

Details: Usyk defeated Fury and became the undisputed world champion in the heavyweight class division. Fury landed more punches, but Usyk was more precise.
