how does Tyson Fury beat Alexander Rusk how do what how does Tyson Fury beat Alexander Rusk does the question for me is how does Tyson Fury beat us and I would in all humility say that that is a

Saturday night and Sunday morning I’ve got a short one from British Classics if you don’t mind by Henry Longfellow be still said heart and seas repining behind the clouds is the sun still Shining thy fate is the common fate of all into each life some Rain Must Fall and some days must be dark and dreary thank you thank you very much Al wa till the long fell gets into the ring let’s head over to the tys and fury part of the table and we’ll get an instant reaction from the manager of course Spencer Brown this is a big moment the road to this fight hasn’t been a smooth this one but we are here now just days away your reaction of course to Alex cic’s message there and your thoughts heading into Saturday yeah um his team are a good bunch of people we’ve got a lot of admiration for him so as Tyson but come Saturday that’s all gone out the window we’ve already bed heads with uh with his team and um it looks like they’re going to but heads on Saturday night and let me tell you he’s got a mountain to climb you have a mountain to climb your Everest is your mountain to climb on Saturday um I’d like to thank everybody involved and um I would if I was you I wouldn’t worry about poets and things like that I’d worry about your man on Saturday night cuz Tyson Fury is coming to take all them belts away from you all right he’s going to take all them belts away and our English boys here come all the way over from England all the way over from England to see him take those belts the fury Army is here and you will see on Saturday night us walking away with the belts thank you thank you very much Spencer Brown great message there we can hear the fury Army we can hear the usk Army as well we can hear you guys brilliant stuff let’s head over to Eis cleas the manager for so long of Alexander Rusk uh your reaction to what you’ve heard so far here today and of course your thoughts heading into Saturday night the ultimate test for Alexander Rusk I’m sorry the loud was very loud I didn’t hear much is that a question to me it’s a question to you Eis tell us your thoughts on this ultimate test the mountain to climb for Alexander Rusk on Saturday night well it’s not going to be walk in the park uh you know we have a two toughest heavyweights man uh in a division today and uh Alexander proved two times he broke to somebody’s dreams I’m not going to name going to make a names uh everybody knows about it and uh the goal is here to break uh another goals that’s that’s easy and uh I have only one question for uh Tyson Fury how did he find himself a linean champion let me ask you this that’s all I have my message going to be to him everybody calls him millennian but I would like to know how he became Meenan he beat Klitschko Klitschko wasn’t that time millenum Champion simple thank you very much we got see you Saturday night thank you Saudi thank you his Excellency thank you Crown Prince for bringing all of his events to Saudi and letting our fans enjoy thank you thank you Eis let’s talk to the trainers let’s get a little bit of itics uh to the questions better addressed to the trainers than to Bob arum as he pointed out let’s speak first to Serge Lain I mean Alexander usk has faced many great men but he’s never faced anyone who’s 6’9 maybe 50b heavier who can switch hits how has it been like preparing for this man everyone hello this preparation started back in 2018 and it finished just one week ago [Music] and today Alexander usk is ready for the final belt in the heavyweight division the size does not matter to him what does matter is the opponent who will stay in front of him and I would love uh to wish patience to Tyson as it’s going to be the most difficult night of his life okay thank you very much Serge Lain let’s go back to team Fury Sugar Hill I’ll bring you in here here I think it’s quite extraordinary that 25 years ago it was your uncle Emanuel Stewart who was right next to Lennox Lewis as he challenged last time to become the Undisputed I heard you say at the furi and garu launch press conference that if Emanuel was here this is where he would be right now tell us how you’re feeling heading into this iconic event well I’m feeling like I’m feeling like um exactly what you said but it’s a lot more sentimental for me for the reason that um this is what I was brought up around I was raised around boxing my whole life and watching many of Champions and watching the crunk Legacy and watching you know uh as the later years Emanuel being with lenux Lewis and uh Vladimir klit in the heavyweight division that the heavyweight division to me is the division that runs boxing it’s the granddaddy division it’s the division that makes everything in boxing what it stands for the two the biggest guys in boxing the biggest men battling each other and you have Alexander usyk who’s a number one fighter and you have Tyson Fury who’s a number one fighter you couldn’t get any better than this and um this is just something that like I said Emanuel if he was alive this is where he would be at right here right now and for me to be here in his place I’m just so happy and blessed to um be a part of it and to take what he has taught me over the years of my life not just in boxing but as a man and growing up and being able to understand other men and people and to be able to treat them with respect as I would want to be treated with respect and and this is just one of those times in my life where I just appreciate the things that I’ve been through in life um I I think it’s going to be a great fight Alexander usk is one of the best heavyweights one of the best boxers in boxing he’s been that for quite some time and so has Tyson Fury this is just the ultimate fight two of the best ultimate fighters Saturday night May the 18th I’m always going with my fighter Tyson Fury 100% for The Knockout it can be challenging it can be confusing it can be patience but it’s still going to be a knockout that’s what I believe 100% thank you very much sugar hill brilliant stuff there let’s bring in the fighters let’s first speak to Alexander Rusk the unified World Heavyweight Champion Alexander I have heard you say that you have been preparing for this moment for 22 years now we are just days away this is the man sat in your way tell us how you’re feeling Salam alaykum hi everybody people I’m happy to be here I’m excited I’m grateful for his Excellency Mr Turkey and who this fight happened Let’s Make History enough thank you so much well Alexandra I’m hoping you’ll take a few more questions um what was it that you drew I saw you drawing something while everyone up here was talking you had your pen you had your paper you drew something and put it in your pocket what was it uh it’s my homework understand yeah your homework any any more detail uh it’s my remember and it’s poen could you show it to us oh no now no later okay let’s bring in the wvc linear World Heavyweight Champion Tyson Fury I’ve heard you speak about quite on come on I’ve heard you speak quite philosophically about this fight as well how every Twist and Turn every high and low every up and down has led to this moment right here we’re now just our hour was away from it tell us how you’re feeling Tyson I’m going to make this short and simple I want to thank God for the victory that I’ve received already and I want to thank everybody involved in putting this massive event on I want to thank usk for turning up and challenging me um and that’s about it thank you to all the fans who traveled over to support me because I know it’s tough times at the moment and money’s hard so I aim to put on a show thank you very much God bless tson I’m hoping you’ll take a couple more questions from us I mean uh what would it mean to to beat this man you’ve described him as the toughest fight of your career it would be I guess the best win of your career I’m ready I’ve got nothing to say apart from I’m ready for a good fight and if it’s tough or easy either way I’ll be ready okay all right thank you very much Tyson Fury I just one more for mson just a message to Alexander Rusk anything you want to say to him before Saturday bless him and I’ll say a prayer for him before we walk out that we both get out the ring in one piece and go on to our families cuz that’s what it’s about fantastic stuff Alexander do you have a message for Tyson let your hand talk in the ring okay Alexander Rusk and Tyson Fury both are going to let their fists do the talking on on Saturday night it is the fight of the century the first Undisputed World Heavyweight Champion will be crowned right here in Riad on Saturday do not miss it I love the intensity and this is very few times I’m going to say this because very few words between the fighters we expected that we kind of labeled it a little bit earlier on that there wouldn’t be maybe fireworks or animosity between them but what I do sense up there is two intense guys ready to turn around and achieve their Destiny two very intense guys that that know they’re in a real fight this is a genuine 50/50 fight and I think more so with Tyson Fury the way he responded there he knows that this will be the hardest fight of his career he’s got the tools to win it no doubt in my opinion anyway but he knows this will be a really tough fight you could just tell yeah was very very tense not not a lot said um I mean guys clearly have a lot of respect for each other but it’s it’s just getting close to fight time now there’s not a lot more that can be said and I think both of them probably understand that and they’re both probably just excited now about getting the fight on I’m so impressed with just the level of animosity and the way they’ve controlled that cuz there’s a lot of height there was a lot of noise around this sort of spectacle but it seems now you’ve got two high level Fighters very respectful that understand what’s in front of them and what they need to do to achieve their goals yes and deep down I think they probably really respect each other you know um if you look at the way usk boxes he’s like like a magician he really is a genius on his toes movement’s going to be absolutely crucial for him very but you know he’s a good mover out andout counter puncher on his front foot makes you miss and then makes you pay and Titan Fury he really has the tools to beat anyone in the world because of the height and reach he has the physical advantages when he when he doesn’t want to get hit titon Fury he’s very very good at staying away from an opponent making them come over the front foot and then he catches them as they come he’s not only on his back foot he’ll go forward he can rough him up on the inside he’s probably got a few more answers than what usyk has actually so it’s going to be a cracking fight Mind Games here Carl yeah ton doesn’t want to look at him I think it look it looks maybe he’s going to turn a look maybe not no I don’t think so this is interesting isn’t it we’ll get a proper head to head I think after the weigh in I’m almost intrigued as to what the message TI in Fury is trying to sense Alexander usyk by doing something like this you’ve been enough a f issues both of you have achieved in terms of the highest level what message is he trying to send by not even giving him the respect of acknowledging him there I think tyon with Tyson Fury they’re both very experienced they’ve seen it all before and so if anything it can you can burn up nervous energy when you you when you go with with a face off to your opponent a couple of days beforehand you know look at usyk there his eyes trans fixed on Tyson Fury but Tyson’s not having any of it he’s seen it all before he’s just waiting for the Bell to go now Tyson just looking at themag Bur running right through the side of tyon Fury’s head like it’s uh it’s really really interesting oh he’s still looking he’s trying to get a reaction but nothing from big tyon but this is Tyson’s personality this right here epitomizes Tyson Fury and why the world loves him because he can in the biggest moments seems so relaxed it seems like he’s enjoying well he does seem relaxed and if anything Alexander usk there he’s trying to look into the eyes of Titan Fury trying to get anything out of him at all but of course he didn’t look at him so he can’t get nothing from him can he the eyes tell you everything and unfortunately Tyson wouldn’t give anything away there I have to give you the credit because we won’t see him again probably till tomorrow but he is well dressed he did come dress apart I will give him that part

  1. literally a coin flip if i was to bet on who's gonna win as we really don't know which version we'll see of either of them, both of whom are great

  2. I like tyson fury! I like tyson fury, i like that he is respectful to mike tyson, when they talk. Both tyson best in boxer in world in his generation

  3. there is something wrong with tyson fury…this is not the tyson fury we know before…maybe tyson fury often had bad dreams before…maybe usyk always comes into his dreams and in those dreams tyson was beaten by usyk until he had to be rushed to the hospital

  4. Let's see how high usyks shorts are, he got KO'D by dubois. 100% legit shot, joshua caught him with a legal Body shot that ruined him.

    Refs have to stop being biased to usyk

    I think usyks weight being heavy means he may be looking for a knockout but it might backfire later rounds.

  5. Fury will find a way to beat usyk I'm certain of it ,, looking forward to a proper fight 👍👍

  6. Usyk the cower needs to use his platform to expose the u.s.a from using his people as connon fodder for more illegal wars

  7. Nah, I think all divisions are equal. I don't think it's fair to say that the heavyweight division is better than all other divisions.

  8. I don’t get why people think Usyk the champion CRUISERWEIGHT can beat Tyson Fury the world champion HEAVYWEIGHT ???

  9. Fury by decision bec usyk won't stand toe to to with Fury all night like wilder , Furys key to victory is the jab and offense to set up Right

  10. I'm predicting Tyson Fury to stop Usyk in the 9th round with a shot to the body. it was evident that Usyk can't take a shot to the body as we seen in the Dubois fight.

  11. Hes treating him like he not even worthy to be in the ring . He looks like he just wants to get it over with and don't want to be there.

  12. This press conference perfectly encapsulates everything that is wrong with boxing today.

  13. Mark my words, Mr Fury is gonna taste that canvas, so many times, he'll have wished he'd stayed at home with the remote😁
