- John Fury appeared to headbutt member of Ukrainian’s camp
- Heavyweight unification fight scheduled for Saturday in Riyadh
Tyson Fury’s father John was left with blood pouring down his forehead as the buildup to the undisputed world heavyweight clash with Oleksandr Usyk got off to an explosive start in Riyadh.
The rival camps had to be separated by security at the hotel where Monday’s media activity was being held. John Fury was left with a cut from an apparent headbutt and the blood continued to flow despite the 59-year-old’s attempts to wipe it away. He had to be restrained repeatedly while Usyk’s camp chanted “Usyk, Usyk, Usyk”.
