In a post-fight statement, Fury commented: “We just had a fight. Have you seen my face? It’s pretty busted up and he’s gone to the hospital with a broken jaw and other injuries. We really went at it for 12 rounds.”
The judges scored the fight 115-112, 113-114, and 114-113 in Usyk’s favor after the 12-round match.
