It’s safe to say Tyson Fury isn’t taking his loss to Oleksandr Usyk well.
Last month, ‘The Gypsy King’ suffered the first loss of his boxing career, suffering a split decision loss to the Ukrainian during their clash in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Fury surrendered his WBO heavyweight title, making Usyk the division’s first undisputed world champion in more than two decades.
Not long after the loss, Fury was spotted having a night out on the town where he appeared to have a few too many. And then a few more after that.
Tyson Fury getting escorted out of a pub in Morecambe on Friday night before faceplanting on the pavement outside…

In the video clip above, Fury can be seen being escorted out of a pub called Nowhere in Morecambe, Lancs after the serving staff determined he’d had his fill. Once outside, Fury faceplants on the concrete before attempting to get back on his feet.
A motorist waiting to pick up her son outside the pub captured the video of Fury on the street corner.
“I heard a lot of shouting and commotion and then I saw Tyson crawling on his hands and knees in the street,” she said. “He looked in a bad way. Hopefully, it was just a one-off blowout for him.”
Source Says Pub Outing Was the First Time Tyson Fury Drank in More Than a Year
A source close to Fury revealed he had not had a drink for more than a year, telling the Geelong Advertiser that the British boxing star “had a couple too many and wasn’t feeling too well either.”
For what it’s worth, pub-goers had nothing, but nice things to say about their interaction with Fury, noting that he spent time talking with fans and even handed out £20 to people at random.
Tyson Fury will have the chance to redeem himself on Saturday, December 21 when he returns to the squared circle for a rematch with Usyk. Like their first meeting, the bout will go down in Saudi Arabia at the Kingdom Arena, as confirmed by Turki Alalshikh, chairman of Saudi Arabia’s General Entertainment Authority.
Check out all the highlights from their first meeting below:
