Tyson Fury-Oleksandr Usyk epic increases excitement for potential rematch

YardBarker - 221 days ago - Oleksandr Usyk's split decision win over Tyson Fury for the unified heavyweight belt should only intensify the demand for a rematch. Usyk outlasted Fury in the 12-round instant classic, with two judges scoring the fight 115-112 and 114-113 in favor of Usyk and one scoring it 114-113 Fury. When the two boxers agreed to their Saturday fight, the contract included a clause the loser could trigger for a rematch. Fury had Usyk on the ropes early, appearing to take over in the fifth round. When he landed an uppercut one round later, Fury seemed moments away from taking complete control of the fight. But Usyk surged late, including nearly recording a knockout in the ninth by landing a flurry of punches on Fury with under 30 seconds left in the round.
