OLEKSANDER Usyk showed that he didn't care about Tyson Fury, when the pair came face-to-face.

The Gypsy King disposed of Derek Chisora in ten rounds to set-up a mouth-watering bout with the Ukrainian boxer.

And the pair faced off against one another, after the bout in a bizarre encounter.

As Fury unleashed his fierce intimidation tactics on the champ, Usyk humorously answered a call on his mobile.

It was a brilliant distraction that totally threw Fury's game, as he spouted off what he would do to his fierce rival.

Usyk looked cool as a cucumber as he took a call, while the Manchester brawler barked in his face.

And fans online commented about his cool demeanour.

One wrote: "Fury trying his hardest to goad and intimate Usyk during their face off whereas Usyk is like “sorry mate I got a phone call can you be quiet.”

Another said: "Usyk taking a phone call half way through a weird barrage of insults from Tyson is f****** brilliant."

"Usyk taking a phone call while Tyson Fury is yelling in his face was the highlight of the whole fight,"; was another comment.

Fury defeated Chisora inside 10 rounds - battering the 38-year-old for 10 hard-to-watch rounds before referee Victor Loughlin finally - belatedly - halted the Spurs drubbing.

Ringside was WBA, IBF and WBO champ Oleksandr Usyk, who watched a masterclass from the giant.

But he will pose a far bigger test in Saudi Arabia in the Spring when these two geniuses meet for all of the belts.

The pair had a heated face-off on the ring apron, in which Fury roared: "Where's Alexander Usyk, the rabbit?!

"Hey, rabbit! Usyk, you're next little b****, you're next. You are next!

"Me and you, sucker, next. Me and you! You're getting it, little sucker. Rabbit! P***Y!

"Look, a 15-stone little midget beat a bodybuilder. But I ain't a bodybuilder, sucker. I'm gonna write you off!"
