Additionally, Matchroom Boxing reports that artificial intelligence scored the fight 118-112 in favor of Usyk. Notably, this was the first time in boxing history that AI judged a match, although its score was not taken into account.

Furthermore, four Ukrainians participated in the boxing evening in Saudi Arabia. Earlier, in a 10-round bout on the undercard, Ukrainian Andrei Novitsky defended his title in the heavyweight division. Following that, Usyk's fighter Daniel Lapin won on points, claiming a secondary championship belt. Additionally, Ukrainian Sergey Bogachuk secured a knockout victory.

It is worth noting that in the first match between Usyk and Fury, which also took place in Riyadh, Alexander defeated Fury by split decision. The "Gypsy King" did not acknowledge his defeat at that time, immediately activating the rematch option.
