Fury now faces a crossroads as to his next career optionMark Robinson / Matchroom Boxing The British star landed just 144 to his rival’s 172, giving him a punch completion of 28 per cent to Usyk’s 42 per cent. Despite the verdict of the technology, Fury’s Hall of Fame promoter Frank Warren was bewildered. He suggested that during his long and successful stint in the sport, he hadn’t seen a scorecard like it. He said: “It’s nuts. Did you have him as only winning four rounds out of eight? “Very harsh. It’s nuts. I don’t get it. But it is what it is, and we’ll see what happens in the future with Tyson. “Tyson was dumbfounded. They gave him four rounds out of the 12, which is impossible. Fury thought he had done enough, but the judges didn’t agreeGetty “I’ve been around a long time and I know I’m biased, but one judge didn’t give him, any rounds from round six onwards. Look! No rounds. How can that be? That’s impossible. “Same with the other judge. They gave him one round in the last six, and the same here with this guy. It’s crazy. I’m calm and collected, I’m not screaming and shouting. That is nonsense.” Fury himself agreed with his promoter and felt like he had done enough to win the fight. He said: “I thought I won that fight. I thought I won both fights but I’m going home with two losses on my record. There’s not much I can do about it. I can just fight my heart out. “I will believe til the day I die that I won that fight. I was aggressive, on the front foot all night, landing to the body and head. Frank Warren [his promoter] had me three or four rounds up. A lot of people had me at least two rounds up. But I’m not going to cry over spilled milk. I can’t change the decision. When you don’t get the KO this is what happens: you can’t guarantee a win.” A Ukranian journalist asked Fury if his opponent had been inspired by the defiant spirit of his war-torn country, and the Gyspy King replied: “I didn’t feel no spirit. I felt a bit of Christmas spirit in there and think he got a Christmas gift from those judges.”
