By | January 28, 2024

Fury was far from his best during his bout with Ngannou and was deemed the winner by a single point on the judges’ scorecards. Many raised suspicions that Fury had not trained properly for the ex-UFC champion – who had been making his professional boxing debut – after such a lacklustre performance.The 35-year-old is now set for an undisputed clash with fellow champion Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia on Saturday, February 17. And ahead of the fight, Fury sat down with Usyk and Steve Bunce for a TNT Sports interview and confirmed he had barely spent much time in the gym preparing for Ngannou. He said: “I’m not even in the gym. I don’t train this far out come on. Who do you think you’re talking to? A professional athlete? Come on. I train four to five weeks for these fights.”
