Tyson Fury warned there’s ‘nothing he can do to stop what’s gonna happen’ in rematch with ‘bogeyman’ Oleksandr Usyk

CHRIS EUBANK JR warned there is nothing Tyson Fury can do to beat his boxing bogeyman Oleksandr Usyk.

Usyk became the first to ever defeat Fury after their 12-round thriller in May - where he was seconds away from a round nine knockout.

The British Gypsy King claimed he will now ditch showboating, his dad John in the corner and bulk up in weight.

But middleweight star Eubank told SunSport in Riyadh: "I think Usyk has Fury's number.

"He knows what to do to win and if he hurts him, I don't think he's going to let him off the hook this time.

"I think Usyk is Tyson Fury's boogeyman. I don't think there's anything he can do really to stop what's going to happen."

Fury, 37, has promised to overlook a blockbuster grudge bout with Anthony Joshua, 35, in favour of a trilogy if he evens the score.

And while Eubank, 35, agrees Usyk, 37, should have the right to regain his lead if he lost, he says both super-fights should remain on the cards.

The son of a legend said: "As a British boxing fan we're always going to want to see Fury vs AJ.

"But if fury manages to win this next fight then Usyk definitely deserves the chance to make it right.

"I'm sure the fans would want to see a trilogy but both those fights can happen. It doesn't have to be one or the other."

Eubank is coming off a routine seven round victory over Kamil Szeremeta, 35, in October.

And he is hoping to line up a mega-bout against Conor Benn, 28, with his rival no longer suspended by UK Anti Doping.

There is a disagreement in the purse split with Eubank refusing to accept Benn's 50/50 demand.

And he said: "It will come down to him and his team. We've said what we're going to accept, what we're going to offer. We're not gonna budge.

"I don't need Conor Benn, I'm set. I've got a lot of other options, Conor doesn't.

"So the ball's in their court. I think they'll make the right decision."
