Tyson Fury Didn’t Hesitate When Asked If There Were ‘Too Many Voices’ In His Corner For Usyk Fight
Next month Tyson Fury faces a new challenge in his rematch with Oleksandr Usyk – avenge a defeat.
The big man from Morecambe looked on his way to victory in the middle rounds of the pair’s first fight back in May. Thudding uppercuts were landing and putting a dent in the Ukrainian.
It all changed in the eighth when Fury had his nose bloodied. The ninth was a torrid round for him ending in a barrage of unanswered shots that saw the referee give him a standing eight count. It proved to be the difference on the cards with Usyk taking the split decision win to become the first undisputed heavyweight champion in over two decades.
When the going got tough, many feel Fury’s corner was chaotic. Head trainer SugarHill Steward, coach Andy Lee and father John Fury were all delivering instructions. Some in the sport believe it to be a pivotal factor in the defeat.

In a feature with TNT Sports in which both Fury and Usyk watched the fight back and were posed questions throughout, the Brit was asked what he thought of the criticism that there were ‘too many voices’ in his ear.
“Listen, people can have opinions and what they want to say but at the end of the day they’re not in there doing the fighting. It’s really unimportant what other people think of what was going on in my corner. If I’m happy then the world’s happy, and I’m happy.”
Tyson Fury has confirmed he will travel to Riyadh with the same team as he did in the first fight. Whether or not there will be one voice coming from the corner on fight night remains to be seen.
Usyk, who have since vacated the IBF belt, puts his WBC, WBO and WBA titles on the line on December 21.
