Dillon Danis brings up 'Terminator' as he shares five-word reaction to Oleksandr Usyk beating Tyson Fury in the rematch
The Oleksandr Usyk vs. Tyson Fury rematch wrapped up yesterday, with a unanimous decision win for the Ukranian. His performance was so impressive, in fact, that former Brazilian jiu-jitsu grappler and MMA fighter Dillon Danis heaped praise on him in a recent Instagram comment.
This occurred after the Full Violence page on Instagram shared a post about Usyk's victory, featuring a picture of the Ukranian star posing in front of all of his heavyweight titles. The fight was highly competitive, but Usyk's pressure and output won over the judges.
This drew the attention of Danis, who took a detour from his usual trend of trash-talking anyone and everyone for little to no reason. Instead, the ex-Bellator fighter popped up in the comment section of the post with an apt comparison.
"He's the real life Terminator."
Danis' reference was to the eponymous Terminator character from the 'Terminator' film franchise, which revolves around a borderline unstoppable cyborg assassin. Usyk himself has been unbeatable throughout his career, authoring an impressive 23-0 record across cruiserweight and heavyweight.
He captured undisputed titles in both divisions, with Usyk having a particularly exceptional record against the most successful cruiserweights and heavyweighhts of his generation. These include Tony Bellew, Derek Chisora, Anthony Joshua twice, Daniel Dubois, and Tyson Fury twice.
Now, there's very little left for him to prove. Usyk has achieved everything a boxer could have hope to, being an Olympic gold medalist as an amateur, and two-division undisputed world champion as a professional.
Oleksandr Usyk cosplayed as another assassin character for a promotional presser
Ahead of his rematch with Tyson Fury, Oleksandr Usyk opted to play mind games with 'The Gypsy King,' but in his own understated way. He turned up to a promotional press conference dressed as Agent 47 from the 'Hitman' video game franchise, sporting a shaved head, black leather gloves, black suit, and red tie.
Moreover, he also carried a briefcase that ended up containing a picture of his first bout with Fury, which depicted him landing a punch on the Englishman. When he unveiled the picture, he presented it to Fury, who signed it to the delight of the media members in attendance.
