Footage has emerged showing Paris Fury was stunned after her husband, Tyson Fury, lost his boxing rematch with Oleksandr Usyk on Saturday night.

Fury and Usyk met for a second time in Riyadh, seven months after the Ukrainian had secured victory over the Gypsy King in their first bout.


However, Usyk won via unanimous decision - with the 37-year-old winning after all three judges scored the showdown 116-112 in his favour.

TNT Sports have now shared footage showing Paris' reaction as the result was read out.

The 35-year-old looked shocked when it was announced that Usyk had reigned supreme.

And the clip also showed Paris shaking her head in disagreement, mirroring her husband's stance in the process.

Fury felt he deserved to beat Usyk after going the distance with his rival once again.

Upon learning that he'd suffered the second professional defeat of his career, the Briton stormed out of the ring.

Paris could be seen consoling her husband, with the pair walking off towards the dressing room together.

The couple have spent the last three months apart - which was a sign of Fury's dedication to the showdown.

The 36-year-old was widely accused of taking Usyk too lightly first time around and he worked extremely hard to boost his chances of victory.

In addition to making the tough decision to cut his father from his corner, Fury also cut off contact with his loved ones as well.

Paris admitted that it was a tough time for the couple, telling IFL TV Boxing: "After the last fight, everything that went on previously personally in our lives and then Tyson obviously had the outcome last time, I just think he decided this on his own and I had to support him in it.

She explained that Tyson 'didn't want to be involved in family life', while confessing it has been 'very difficult' to be apart.

Even their reunion in Saudi was a distant one at first.

She continued: "Yesterday was the first time I saw him, we still haven't spoken, I literally was ten feet across from him and we've just barely made eye contact."

Fury, meanwhile, has revealed he's accepted his defeat to Usyk.

But he also says he will always be adamant he won, rather than his opponent.

“I was confident I had won that fight again. I thought I’d won both fights, but then again I’ve gone home with two losses on my record," he said, referring to his first loss to Usyk back in May.

“I’m not going to cry over spilt milk. It’s happened now. I know boxing, I’ve been in it all my life and you can’t change no decisions."
