Tyson Fury's uncle, Peter Fury, has pointed out the reason for the "Gypsy King's" loss to Oleksandr Usyk in their first fight.

According to his relative and former trainer, Tyson's team chose the wrong strategy for the bout.

"I think Tyson has every chance to win in the rematch. You saw a big guy, 204-207 cm tall, trying to fight in a playful manner against a very good runner and elite fighter. So I think Tyson's team had a completely wrong strategy for this fight. It was ineffective.

I am a firm believer that only one person should give instructions. Who is his trainer? If it's Tyson's father, let him speak. If the trainer is the guy from America, let him give instructions. If three or four people are speaking at once, how are you going to listen to that?

How far is he willing to go, and will he get the right advice? Who will give it? All these things play a crucial role. When you have two elite fighters, the bigger one should prevail over the smaller one in a boxing match by using their characteristics correctly, utilizing their size, reach, and weight," said Peter Fury.

The rematch between Usyk and Fury will again take place in the Saudi Arabian capital, Riyadh, and is scheduled for December 21.

Previously, manager Spencer Brown commented on Fury's reaction to Usyk relinquishing the IBF belt.
