Carl Frampton has said Tyson Fury looked ‘ridiculous’ after weighing in at 281lb for his rematch with Oleksandr Usyk, who beat the “Gypsy King” again on Saturday.
Seven months after outpointing Fury in Riyadh, Usyk produced the same result in the Saudi city, retaining the unified heavyweight titles.

In fact, the Ukrainian beat the Briton more easily this time, with 116-112 scorecards from all three judges, after earning a split decision in May.
Fury had promised an aggressive approach in the rematch, and his career-heaviest weight of 281lb seemed to back up that claim. Yet Fury, 36, was unable to effectively use his size to bully Usyk, 37, who weighed 55lb lighter than the former champion.
