New punch stats have emerged from Oleksandr Usyk's victory over Tyson Fury in a never-before-seen achievement.
Usyk claimed a second consecutive scalp over Fury following his unanimous decision victory last Saturday.
All three judges scored it 116-112 to the undefeated Ukrainian, who successfully defended his WBA (super), WBC and WBO world heavyweight titles.
Speaking after the fight, Fury hit out the scoring of the contest and destroyed the AI judge's scorecard while promoter Frank Warren made his feelings clear live on-air.
However, the punch stats from the fight emerged and told a different story.

What Tyson Fury said about the scoring of his fight against Oleksandr Usyk?
In his post-fight press conference, Fury said: "I was quite confident (that I was ahead). I thought I won that fight again. I thought I’ve won both fights, but then again, I’ve gone home with two losses on me record now, so there’s not much I can do about it. I can just fight me heart out and do the best I can. But again, I’ll always believe until the day I die I’ve won that fight.
"I was on the front foot all night, landing body and head. Listen, sometimes it’s hard to score."

"Uncle Frank, I think is blind," he said. "If Tyson says it is Christmas gift, okay thank you God, not Tyson.
"Thank you my coach, thank you my team. Listen, Frank is crazy, man, I think is my opinion.
"Okay, no problem. I win."
