Usyk will auction the photo Fury signed for him that even he laughs at: "I look like Shrek"

'Gypsy King' says he's willing to die in rematch

Usyk will auction the photo Fury signed for him that even he laughs at: "I look like Shrek"

On December 21, boxing has an unmissable date with one of the most interesting fights of the year. It will be the second match between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury, who this time will not fight for the four heavyweight championship belts, but for three of them.

Although Daniel Dubois has won the IBF title, this does not detract from the fact that this is one of the greatest rematches seen in recent years and, of course, the best heavyweight fight that can be made.

Last Tuesday the first press conference with the two protagonists took place. Once again the showman was the Ukrainian, who has somehow stolen this role from his charismatic rival.

The champion appeared disguised as Agent 47 from the 'Hitman' video game saga. In fact, 'The Cat' made his entrance with Franz Schubert's Ave Maria, a song used in the game. After his Joker routine for the first fight, Oleksandr once again put on a curious show for the press and fans.

Usyk, wearing a red tie and black gloves, pulled out a now iconic photograph of him punching 'Gypsy King' from a briefcase.

The Englishman's reaction was comical: "I look like Shrek," he told the Ukrainian as he signed the photo.

Now we have learned through the media 'Boxing King Media' that this photograph will be auctioned and the proceeds will go to help the Ukrainian people.

Meanwhile, Fury says he's more focused heading into this fight: "I did a lot of antics, more than I've ever done before, actually, against what is supposed to be my toughest opponent.

I did a lot of things and it ended up costing me dearly", he explained.

The 'Gypsy King's' message, moreover, is very clear: "My goal is to make as much money as possible, but I'll die in that damn ring, I don't care."
