Is it true that Usyk vs Fury 2 will feature an AI judge?

Yes, the AI experiment will be "free from bias and human error" according to Turki Alalshikh the man behind the tool. You might be relieved to hear that the so-called 'AI judge' will not be used for official scorecards.

It's certainly an interesting idea but we're not convinced AI judges will solve boxing's scoring problem.

What happened in the first Fury vs Usyk 2 fight?

Since you’re getting ready to watch the Fury vs Usyk rematch, you might want to catch up with the events of May 18, when the pair first clashed.

Billed as 'Ring of Fire', Fury showboated his way through the first round but was soon struggling to hold his own against Usyk. The Gypsy King landed an uppercut in the sixth round but his momentum was short-lived. Usyk landed 14 punches in the ninth round and Fury was given a standing count.

After 12 rounds Usyk defeated Fury by split decision. It was first loss of Fury’s career and put an end to the undisputed heavyweight champion of boxing's four-belt era, setting the stage for a highly anticipated rematch.
