Tyson Fury has broken cover for the first time since his defeat to Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia.

Tyson Fury has broken cover for the first time since his defeat to Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia.

The 35-year-old has returned to his Morecambe mansion following his split-decision defeat to his Ukrainian rival on Saturday night.

Wearing sunglasses, a backwards cap and a Gypsy King tracksuit adorned with the Union Jack flag, Fury was spotted heading to a tip with his wife Paris.

In one shot, he was seen trying to juggle holding a conversation on the phone while carrying Asda bags filled with rubbish.

The heavyweight boxer appears to be settling back into home life, just two days after his first-ever professional defeat.

After the dramatic showdown at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Fury insisted he had won and set his sights on a rematch in October.

‘I believe he won a few of the rounds, but I won the majority,’ he told DAZN. ‘It was one of the daftest decisions in boxing.

‘I’ll be back. The good little man got the decision.

‘We’ll go back to our families and I’ll see him again in October.

‘We’ll go back, rest up. I believe I won the fight but I’m not going to sit and cry and make excuses.

‘We’ll run it again in October.’

But he also sparked a backlash by claiming that the judges scored in the Ukrainian’s favour because ‘his country is at war’.

In the immediate aftermath, a battered and bruised Fury told fans: ‘His country is at war, so people are siding with the country at war. Make no mistake, I won that fight in my opinion.’

He added: ‘It was one of the daftest decisions in boxing. I’ll be back.’

The judges on the night scored the bout 115-112 Usyk, 114-113 Fury and 114-113 Usyk to see Usyk win via split-decision.

But Fury is set to bank another £100million for a rematch because the pre-bout deal the two boxers signed lines up a second encounter.

The battle was a tale of two halves, with Fury dominating the opening rounds before Usyk came back to control the fight with a flurry of punches in the ninth round leaving the Gypsy King floundering.

Fury would recover to last the final three rounds, but his unbeaten record was left in ruins as the judges ruled in Usyk’s favour.

The Gypsy King has been reunited with his wife, Paris, at their mansion after she did not travel to Saudi Arabia for the big fight.

Speaking beforehand about watching her husband fight: ‘I hate it I’ve got to be truthful, that’s the flat out answer.

‘I support him but I don’t enjoy it. I hate being there but on the other hand, I feel like I have to be there.

‘I feel like, if I’m not there, what happens if something goes wrong and I’m not with him?’
