Run you beat all the rest of them we would beat Tyson Fury at sausage thank you so much everybody people I more speak in the ring undefeated The Undefeated to find out who is the best heavyweight in the world it’s on Saudi Arabia two world champions this man
Alexander usk and this man Tyson Fury finally signed and sealed we’ve got a fight and I’ve got you around the table Tyson I’m going to start with you um we’re finally here did you have any doubts that you would be here at some point looking across at
Alexand did you imagine you know what it’s a lovely idea it’s not going to happen no I I didn’t think it wouldn’t happen it’s been time for months so just a matter of when and where and Alexander did you have any doubts I believe uh this fight will
Be always believed yeah for me he was never in the equation it was always me Wilder and Joshua and obviously he beat Joshua so he took Joshua position so here we are to enter the equation yeah what does it mean to you to be the number one heavyweight in the world
Well I think we both are decent men we’re both family men we’re both got children we’re both God-fearing men so I don’t think you can be any more decent but listen the belts are one thing aside but me and him’s got to go fight now there’s been a big buildup and now we’re
Going to see who’s better at of me and Alexander but I’m a conqueror remember that he’s Alexander but I am the great so we’ll see now in the past in the past there have been some insults not not terrible insults but mild insults all part of the
Game T yeah all part of the following Gamesy you’re quite good at insulting people but people don’t it doesn’t doesn’t work if they insult you well I am fat I am bald I am ugly I am slow tick tick everything that people say is all true you finished your best years are behind
You for sure I’m over the hill past it skinny don’t tell anybody just don’t tell anybody Alexander now that you are here at the table do you have a message for Tyson Fury do you have something you need to say to him or you would like to say to him to been
You wouldn’t run away from usk would you yes it’s very scary it’s a boxing fight to me been boxing me whole life I’m not bothered about him or 10 men like him but it’s a massive fight do you need something extra to get motivated for Alexander usk
No we’re been fighting for all the belts undefeated Legacy as they want to call it that ton of money what else is to get motivated and what about you Alexander do you need extra motivation my motivation it’s my family my country people who now support my country it’s Ukrainian
Soldier this my motivated but I have uh opportunity second opportunity take unput it’s it’s motivated I’ve been around the two of you a lot and I can sense that both of you just want to get this day over get back in a gym I don’t
Train this far out come on who do you think you’re talking to a professional athlete come on I trained four or five weeks for these fights you said you you said you train 12 weeks for for France in yeah like I train 12 weeks for Wilder and everybody
Else four or five weeks how how much training does a man need three or four weeks of spiring one week resting done Alexander you trained more than five weeks yeah so basically we have two boys you’re both trained for five weeks it’s one of the biggest fights in history but you’re
Only training for five weeks we’ve been boxing all our lives from little boys how much training does we need I’m sure we’re not going to forget how to box and it’s not a fitness competition is it so you know I don’t think you need any more than five weeks training do you
Have you had to do anything special for Alexander he’s slick he’s clever are you are you bringing in special sparing Partners Tyson are you just doing your normal Tyson Fury stuff just the same stuff I’ll bring in some sou all left-handed sparring obviously and
That’s it what what can you do for a for a fighter can’t really do much for him or or me or anybody it’s the boxing mat if he’s better than me then he’ll beat me if I’m better than him I’ll beat him and that’s it there’s no more no less to
It and what about you Alexander you have you have many of your opponents are naturally taller than you so will you will you have to do massive adjustments big adjustments so you have no fear of this man this taller man this bigger man you
Have no fear of him no what point is the fear you have of somebody or the lack of fear and respect when do they cross over I mean or do you have no fear and no respect you’ve had some fights where you’ve had no fear and no respect some
Fights where you’ve maybe had a bit of fear and a lot of respect listen I don’t fear boxing man I’m not bothered about them at all I’ve had many fights before I’ve beat all the people in the world 35 fights in a row so I’m not really that
Bothered I’ve been at this game a long long time professional over 15 years now what more he’s having sized man 6’3 16 Stone he’s he’s the same build as every other heavyweight that mostly you’re going to fight he’s a left-handed man I’ve got a brother who’s left-handed me
Dad’s left-handed so it’s not like I’m not used to fighting people who’s left-handed or messing around with them so it is what it is going to go in there and punch of each other and that’s all there is to it nothing more nothing less alexand is it a technical fight or
Is it a fight of hard and desire what do you Think is it the fight of your life Tyson every fight is the fight of my life especially undefeated Cruiserweight world champion heavyweight world champion Olympic gold medalist got to be I got to prove it all again I know he can’t beat me I know he can’t listen he’s a God-fearing man so
Am I I know we are the two biggest Christians in boxing without a failure he can train all he wants I can train all I want but whoever God wants to win this fight will win it don’t matter if you’re from the gutter or the kingdom of wherever
Whoever’s chosen to win this fight will win it more than anything why I respect you more than all the other boxers is because your faith yes yes of course that’s why that’s why I respect you listen champion champion great but to to see someone also a world champion who’s
Also big faith in God is unbelievable and it’s been 24 years since we had an Undisputed champion in boxing it’s our destiny now to go go on and fight for the championship nobody else was chosen in all the 24 years many heavyweight champions before you before me before us
But they didn’t have the opportunity to fight for the Undisputed championship for one reason or the other of course so all we got to do now is dance and I look forward to the challenge do do you think at some point in the future five years 10 years 15
Years with grandchildren do you think you’ll all get together honestly speaking honestly to God I don’t have any rivalry with Alexander no hatred no there’s no rivalry it’s just business just business for me go in there do me thing he’s going to do his thing and
That’s it I don’t hate him I don’t dislike him he’s a likable character I’ve got nothing bad to say about him but it’s unfortunate for Alexander that he’s got to fight Tyson Fury in my era so that’s it I’ve only got him to beat and I’ve wiped everybody out and
That’s it and that’s it that’s the full flush full flush the royal flush there would be Joshua somewhere down the line in theory okay he beat Joshua twice so you that takes care of that can’t if you mentioned Joshua in the same table he’s beat Joshua twice I beat Wilder twice
Now whoever wins out of me and him which is going to be me then that’s it King of the castle end of and do you feel the same way Alexander or do you need a bit of hate a bit of spite in your preparation you need to maybe dislike the person Somehow and finally fellas before before we come to the end of this um I’d like if you could a prediction I can outbox him I’m a very good boxer but I don’t really use anymore when I box Vladimir Klitschko I outboxed him beautiful fainted slipped slided and he couldn’t
Land any punches I’ll do the same to him if I want to or else I just go on the front foot and get stuck into him there’s only one person standing in in his way of Total Domination in Europe and that’s The Dauntless the Gypsy
King and what did I say there ever never has been anybody else in Britain only Tyson Fury no joshuas no David Hayes No Chorus no d bars no Joe Joes there’s only Tyson Fury and I stand up and I will defend and be Victorious and Alexander final word to
You Tyson started you can finish what would be your prediction Tyson Fury against Alexander us Undisputed both unbeaten a massive fight it will be in Saudi and we’ll find out are we shaking hands yeah shaking hands thank you

tyson looking small
Rather see fury vs joshua. Usyk is in the way of that fight.
the furys motto surely gotta be… "Ive been fighting my whole life" Tyson and Tommy abuse that phrase
Just like Lennox Lewis vs Evander HolyField โค
Sultan Ibragimov vs Wladimir Klitschko replay.
Usyk should be thanking the United States for the money weโve sent over and all of a sudden your president is worth 596 million ๐ค
Fury is winning …believe that.he will destroy his ribs
My money and support is on Usyk to KO Fury.
Furys uncomfortable, he aint pulling it off
Usyk have some fear in his eyesโฆ
I didnโt watch this. I just came here to say I wonโt be interested in any promo or media leading up to this fight. Someone let me know once Tyson steps in the ring. Okay bye.
Has Fury ever won by K.O.?
Fury's losing this one
he asked Fury not to run away, and see what happened later
Big respects to both of because they both believe in God and they have faith in God๐ฏ๐คas a Christian am happy for both of them๐ค๐ฏ
Francis knocking him down has humbled him by the looks of it
Thereโs only one Tyson fury ๐๐ฌ๐งWBC
Your Alexandra and Iโm the Great ๐ ๐ boss comment that
