The exact moment Tyson Fury lost his heavyweight title rematch to Oleksandr Usyk has been pinpointed by fans.

Fury lost via unanimous decision, with all three judges scoring it 116-112.

The Brit controlled the opening stages of the fight and increased his aggression in round five, landing several shots that slightly rocked Usyk.

But the reigning heavyweight champion grew into the fight in the second half and forced Fury into the corner on several occasions, with clinches between the pair becoming more frequent.

Fury then landed an uppercut at the start of round 10 to regain control and looked to be growing in confidence as the round wore on.

But Usyk had a strong round 11, and after a tight 12th round the judges awarded him the victory by unanimous decision with scores of 116-112 each.

While the victor didn't surprise many fans who had Usyk down as the winner, the four-point difference between the two fighters caused controversy.

Fury weighed in at a career-high weight of 20st 1lbs, in comparison to Usyk's 16st 1lbs on Friday.

And fans felt Fury's weight played a role in his defeat in round 10 as Usyk landed several key shots.

One fan wrote: "Fury is starting to slow down. The weight may be betraying him."

A second said: "Fury coming in with that much weight was a mistake."

A third added: "Fury just got outmuscled in the corner and he's 50 pounds heavier that's not good for him."
