Oleksandr Usyk sends chilling message to Tyson Fury while cosplaying iconic Agent 47 from 'Hitman'
Oleksandr Usyk will face boxing legend Tyson Fury in a rematch on Dec. 21 in Saudi Arabia. During the press conference for Usyk vs. Fury 2 in London, Usyk showed up dressed as Agent 47 from the 'Hitman' video games.
The undisputed WBC heavyweight champion was dressed in all black with black gloves and a red tie, much like the famous 'Hitman.' He took to Instagram to share his look and also wrote a chilling caption aimed at Fury, stating that he will never leave the 'Gypsy King' alone.
His caption read:
“I will not leave you alone. Never @tysonfyry”
Check out the Oleksandr Usyk’s post below:
Their first fight took place at Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on May 18, 2024. It was originally scheduled for February 17, 2024, but was postponed because the 'Gypsy King' suffered an injury during training.
Usyk dominated the first four rounds of the fight by landing powerful strikes from the opening bell. While Fury gained some momentum in the fifth with uppercuts and performed well in the sixth and seventh rounds, the momentum shifted back towards the Ukrainian when he unleashed barrage of strikes in the ninth round that had Fury visibly hurt, even forcing the referee to give 'The Gypsy King' a standing count.
Fury managed to make it to the end of the bout, but Usyk ended up winning the fight via split decision, making him the undisputed WBC heavyweight champion. This was the first time a fighter had secured the undisputed WBC heavyweight title in 24 years, with the last champion being Lennox Lewis in 2000.
Oleksandr Usyk discloses what's inside his briefcase
During the press conference in London to promote their rematch, Usyk, dressed as Agent 47, also brought a briefcase. He opened it, took out photos—without showing them to the reporters—and handed them to Fury to sign. After Tyson signed them, Usyk collected the photos and began packing them back into the briefcase. When asked what they were, he said:
“You will find it tomorrow on Ebay!”
While packing the photos, Usyk revealed that they were pictures from their first fight, specifically the moment when he landed a left hook on Fury.
