Tyson Fury blasts Oleksandr Usyk as he and Francis Ngannou come face to face

Heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has cast fresh doubt on the likelihood of a unification bout with Oleksandr Usyk and ridiculed the Ukrainian's performance in his recent victory over Daniel Dubois.

Fury was speaking at a press conference to promote his upcoming fight against MMA star Francis Ngannou in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on October 28.

The bout pits Fury, the unbeaten WBC heavyweight title holder in a 10-rounder against Ngannou, formerly of the UFC, who has never boxed professionally.

Understandably, Fury, who appeared more out of shape than usual at Thursday's London press event, has received heavy criticism for his participation in the showcase event rather than facing any one of the credible challengers from within boxing.
