British professional heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury said that the referees made a mistake by awarding a unanimous decision in favor of Oleksandr Usyk - 116:112 in the match in the Saudi capital Riyadh, in which the Ukrainian defended the belts of the world heavyweight champion of the World Boxing Association (WBA), World Boxing Council (WBC) and World Boxing Organization (WBO). Fury claims that he should have won, BTA reported.
"I was quite confident. I thought I won that fight again... I thought I won both fights, but now I'm going home with two losses, so there's not much I can do," Tyson Fury said at the post-fight press conference, quoted by the "Reuters" agency.
"I can just fight with all my heart and do the best I can. I'll always believe until the day I die that I won that fight," the Briton added.
"I'm not going to cry over spilt milk, it's happened now. I know boxing, I've been in it my whole life. You can't change any decisions, but I'll just always feel a little bit damaged, quite a bit," Tyson Fury continued.
The boxer will take time to consider his future. When asked if fans would see him fight again, he replied: "They might, they might not. Who knows. We'll talk about it next year. I'll go home and have a nice Christmas. I've been out for 12 weeks, I've put a lot of work into this fight, and now I'm going to go home and enjoy it."
