Tyson Fury told how to beat Oleksandr Usyk ‘three times in one night with simple game plan’ in heavyweight rematch

TYSON FURY could beat Oleksandr Usyk "three times in one night" - so long as he uses a simple game plan laid out by Billy Joe Saunders.

The Gypsy King was defeated for the first time in May as Usyk was crowned heavyweight boxing's first four-belt undisputed champion.

Now he looks ahead to his December 21 rematch and has been given pointers by good friend and former champ Saunders.

BJS told : “I don’t think there’s anyone out there than can outbox Usyk.

“Tyson Fury, he can beat Usyk three times in one night with one simple game plan.

“It’s very, very simple how to beat him. You have to use your size. You have to use your physical advantages.

"Every attribute you have you need to use to full effect with this man."

Fury, 36, raced to an early lead before Usyk, 37, came on strong down the stretch to snatch the historic win.

But the British superstar claimed in the aftermath that the fight was "TOO EASY" which forced him to switch off - and Saunders agreed.

He said: “The first five rounds was like a sparring session for him.

“Actually, I’ve seen him have harder spars for the first five rounds than that fight. If he’s getting his own way early on, he tends to switch off.

"If he gets knocked out cold on the floor and people don’t think he’s getting up and he gets up, that’s when he switches his gears up.

“You’ve got to give him credit. I know there’s a lot of speculation about the ninth round, but he didn’t go down and he was still on his feet fighting.

“I’m not making any excuses for him, but I know what went on in camp and what didn’t go on in camp.

“I know that, even when it came to sparring and other bits and bobs, there was stuff missing out of it that needs to be rectified this time.

“He’s asked me to go away [for] training camp with him, so I’m delighted to say I will be going away with him.”

Saunders, 35, has not boxed since a crushing 2021 defeat to Canelo Alvarez, 34, but he is training for a comeback bout.

Meanwhile he backed Fury to avenge his only ever loss against Usyk.

Saunders predicted: “I believe Tyson will win the next fight. And I believe that he will win by knockout as well.”
