Tyson Fury fell short once again after Oleksandr Usyk claimed a unanimous decision against the Briton to retain his unified heavyweight titles.

The three judges all scored the fight 116-112 to the Ukrainian seven months after handing Fury his first professional loss.

In another classic encounter Usyk retained his WBC, WBA and WBO belts by controlling the tempo and landing more frequently and with greater impact.

Fury was visibly upset at the announcement and left the ring, refusing to speak on the broadcast.
