Both men put on another heavyweight show, but the result, unfortunately for Fury, remained the same.

Usyk was declared winner on points and is still undefeated as all three judges ruled the score 116-112 in his favor.

The decision was met with mixed reactions, with many boxing fans divided in their opinions.

The consensus seems to be that Fury didn’t do enough, in terms of damage and punches, to dethrone the Ukrainian.

However, one person who thought the Brit was victorious in the fight was Fury’s wife Paris.

Footage was published online showing the 35-year-old reacting to the unanimous decision live from her front row seat in Riyadh.

Not surprisingly, Paris looked nervous as announcer Michael Buffer began making the announcement.

She then said her husband’s name and started clapping and smiling when Buffer read that all three judges were in favor of the winner.

However, as soon as Paris heard “still undefeated” (meaning Usyk was the winner), her expression immediately changed and she shook her head left and right in shock at the decision.

Fury had revealed in the build-up to his fight with Usyk that he had not spoken with Paris in three months while he underwent an intense training camp.
