Fury promises ‘surprise’ ring walk against Usyk
Tyson Fury, May 14, 2024

TYSON FURY is ready to step up his mind games with Oleksandr Usyk as he promised to break new ground with his ring walk in Riyadh on Saturday.

Fury and Usyk are fighting for the crown of undisputed world heavyweight champion when they clash at a sold out Kingdom Arena in an event being billed as “Ring of Fire.”

The “Gypsy King” has previously entered the ring dressed as Apollo Creed from Rocky 4 and as a Spartan warrior, while for his second meeting with Deontay Wilder he was carried in on a throne.
