The official scorecards from Oleksandr Usyk's second bout against Tyson Fury have been released.

Ukrainian Usyk came out on top against Fury once again after all three judges scored the fight 116-112 in his favour.

However, the scores shocked many fans as they felt the fight was much closer than the judges thought, with some claiming that Fury had won the bout.

Fury himself was adamant that he had won the fight 'by at least three rounds'.

Promoter Frank Warren dismantled the judges' scorecards inside the ring as he was left 'dumbfounded'. He said to Ade Oladipo: "It's nuts. Did you have him as only winning four rounds out of eight?

"Very harsh. It's nuts. I don't get it. But it is what it is, and we'll see what happens in the future with Tyson."

After the fight, an image of the judges' scorecards was posted on social media by Queensberry Promotions.

As shown, Gerardo Martinez from Puerto Rico had Fury winning rounds one, four, five and 12.

American Patrick Morley differed from Martinez, scoring rounds one, three, four and five for Fury.

Finally, Panama's Ignacio Robles felt Fury won rounds two, four, five and nine.

However, one thing was for sure, all three judges at ringside felt Usyk won the fight by a clear margin.

Speaking during his press conference, Fury claimed that the judges handed a Christmas gift to Usyk.

The Brit said: "The judges gave him a Christmas gift. I feel like I won both fights.

"I know I had to knock him out but it's boxing and this happens. There is no doubt in my mind I won this fight."

Fury added: "Frank [Warren] had me three or four rounds up and a lot of people had me up by at least two. I'm not going to cry over spilled milk, it's over now.

"I've been in boxing my whole life but I'll always feel a little bit hard done by - not a little bit, a lot."

On the back of the defeat, Fury's professional record now stands at 34 wins, two losses and one draw.

Meanwhile, Usyk improved his own record to 23 wins.
