Body language expert reveals the red flag gesture that showed Tyson Fury was going to LOSE his fight with Oleksandr Usyk

Tyson Fury betrayed one key behaviour before slugging it out with Oleksandr Usyk which proved he would lose the fight, a body language expert has claimed. The Gypsy King went the distance with Usyk but was beaten for a second time this year by him as all three judges scored it 116-112 to the Ukrainian - a clean sweep which left Fury indignant.

Fury stormed out of the ring after learning the result and later told Sky Sports that he felt he had won by three rounds, while co-promoter Frank Warren called a defeat by that margin 'impossible'. And so Usyk retained his WBA, WBC and WBO belts - but it was written in the stars after Fury's body language giveaway, says guru Judi James.

'There was one key gesture though that seemed to signal a motivational glitch or problem and which acted as a red flag in terms of his chances of winning this fight,' James told BetUK. 'A very chilling gesture of the puffing out of air as he got down to the business of the fight suggested he just wanted to get it over with, whereas successful boxers tend to look excited by and longing for the fight itself.
