Johnny Nelson thinks Tyson Fury will regret his showboating following his defeat to Oleksandr Usyk on Saturday night.
And the 57-year-old has also accused the Gypsy King of complacency, suggesting he was his own downfall as he lost in Saudi Arabia.
Usyk beat Fury on points, with the Ukrainian producing a tenacious display as he battled his way to victory.
The 37-year-old took the bout more seriously than Fury at times, with the Briton showboating throughout the course of the contest.

Nelson, speaking to Sky Sports, believes Fury will regret his antics after being left with egg on his face.
"Usyk started smart, Tyson decided to showboat and say 'I'm better than you' rather than showing he's better than him," he said.
"He'll regret the showboating, but maybe at the same time it was him trying to hustle and get the better of Usyk.
"For the first quarter, Usyk did the right thing, then Tyson started to find the measure of himself, find the length.
"Tyson was basically on the back foot the entire time, the times when he put his foot down and pushed Usyk were the times when he had the successes.
"He lost belief in that, what do you do? There's the showboating.
"You can be busy looking good, but you going to lose while you do it."
Nelson then proceeded to express a belief that Fury had been complacent during the clash, something he thinks was the 35-year-old's downfall.
"When you see him go forward, using his power and height, his reach, that's when he was controlling Usyk, hurting him," he added.
"Complacency kicked in, it's him thinking 'I'm king, you come to me'.
"Tyson was trying to hustle his way through the pressure, and Usyk was consistent from the off.
"Win the first three, lose the next three, but still kept the pressure on Fury.
"Whenever Tyson put his foot down and had pressure, it's when he had success."
Usyk previously beat Anthony Joshua twice.
And with his victory over Fury, he's now enhanced his reputation as one of the best boxers of all time.

Fury has claimed Usyk was only given the win because of the ongoing war in Ukraine.
Yet Nelson disagrees with that assessment and believes the result was the right one.
He said: "Usyk kept the pressure up and as it got into the championship rounds he started to land clean with that left hand.
"Tyson showed his heart, his guts, but he was gone, he switched off and the ropes saved him.
"Realistically, even when Deontay Wilder hit him he wasn't that bad.

"Usyk kept the pressure on and towards the end the showboating lost Fury the fight.
"The right man deservedly won. I know Tyson Fury said he believed he won, I don't know if that's a hustle, but he didn't win."
