His Excellency, Turki Alalshikh has been labelled as 'the saviour of boxing' after what he did just two days after Oleksandr Usyk's fight against Tyson Fury.

On Saturday night, Usyk put on yet another masterful boxing clinic as he got the better of Fury again inside the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

The three ringside judges - Gerardo Martinez, Patrick Morley and Ignacio Robles scored the bout 116-112 in favour of the Ukrainian.

Just two days after the bout, Alalshikh delighted fans around the world as he posted a video of the full fight on YouTube, including the ring walks and the aftermath.

Reacting in the comments section, one fan said: "YOU LEGEND!! ONLY 2 DAYS AFTER THE FIGHT AND THE FULL VID OUT."

Another commented: "The fact that HIS EXCELLENCY TURKI ALALSHIK has these PPVs uploaded so quickly online AND in 4K no less is AMAZING! He's truly the savior of boxing!"

A third fan added: "Turki, Thank you, sir. You have saved boxing."

Someone else wrote: "The full fight and not even a couple days has passed! Turki is a legend."

A fifth said: "For a fact Turki is the greatest thing that happened to modern boxing ......Turki The reviver Alalshikh."

Speaking after the fight, Fury's promoter Frank Warren was left dumbfounded by the scorecards.

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."

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."

It remains to be seen whether we will see Fury return inside the ring after the 36-year-old dropped a cryptic nine-word response when asked about his future.
