“I'm going to do the same thing.” Fury shared his plan for a rematch with Usyk Andrew Redington/Getty Images

Former WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has shared his strategy for the upcoming rematch against Oleksandr Usyk.

Details: Fury believes that all he needs to do to gain an edge over the Ukrainian fighter is to cut out the showmanship and bring a more focused version of his style to the ring. He intends to showcase a sharper and more concentrated approach in the rematch.

Quote: "My style is agility, the jab, movement, slipping and sliding—why would I abandon that to walk forward [behind a high guard]? It doesn't make sense, I wouldn't do that. So, to win this rematch, all I need to make are small, tiny adjustments—and I mean tiny. It's not so much the clowning around, hands behind my back, having a good time. It’s just about being a bit more focused... I need a more serious version of what I already did.

What's the game plan? No changes, mate. It was a 'grab and go' type of fight, you got the decision, fantastic. I'm going to do the same thing, boxing behind a beautiful long jab, throwing double feints, feint, feint, feint, feint, double feint, body shots, uppercuts to the head, uppercuts to the body. But instead of showing off, I'll be a bit more concentrated," Fury said.

Reminder: Turki Al-Sheikh, Saudi Arabia’s advisor to the Royal Court and head of the General Entertainment Authority, has released the undercard fight list for the big boxing event scheduled for Saturday, December 21.

On Wednesday, October 23, the first press conference was held for Fury and Usyk ahead of their highly anticipated rematch
