The Gypsy King has the chance to avenge his loss to the Ukrainian earlier this year when the heavyweight pair fight again later this month and believes that he will only need to make minor adjustments to come out on top this time around.

Fury told Sky Sports: "I don't think I can be any better than what I [was] because I think it was probably one of the best performances that I've ever done in my life. Although it didn't get the result I thought it was a very fantastic performance against one of my best opponents.

"Can I be any better? Can I do any better? I can be more focused, less clowning and I think that's enough."

Fury was almost knocked out by a ferocious punch by Usyk in the first fight but doesn't think the same thing will be happening again.

He said: "That punch, if he chucked that punch he hit me with maybe 100 times it would have not done any damage. But [that] one time it did."

Fury's promoter Frank Warren believes that the former world champion would prove that he is the greatest heavyweight of his generation should he beat Usyk.

He told Sky Sports: "All the doubters, all the journalists were saying Usyk is now up there with all the legends of the sport, the Muhammad Alis, the Fraziers, the Foremans, the Joe Louis, as being one of the greatest and certainly the greatest of his generation.

"And I'm pleased they've said that because when Tyson beats him no one can debate the fact that he's beat the best of his generation which will make him the best of his generation."
