TYSON FURY and Oleksandr Usyk are back to exchanging verbal jabs before holding hands again.
The two spent years feuding online before finally sharing the ring in a historic, undisputed title decider in May.
Usyk became the first to defeat Fury and also the first four-belt heavyweight champion in one night after 12 classic rounds.
The rematch in Saudi Arabia is scheduled for December 21, after a period of silence for both men.
But that’s over.
Fury, who has been unusually quiet on social media since his first defeat, sent an ominous warning to Usyk after training.
He said: “I’ve just finished a lovely run in the bay with the lads.
“December 21st, Usyk, you are warned. Let’s go!”
Usyk – who is in Paris to support Ukrainian boxers at the 2024 Olympics – was quick to react cheekily.
He said, “Hey, my friend Greedy Belly. Keeping training. I know you work hard, it feels good. I appreciate it.”

“Thank you very much, Greedy Belly, you are my friend, you are my friend.”
Usyk is a genuine fan favorite for his in-ring brilliance and independent personality off the ropes.
And fans loved his hilarious response to Fury when someone said: “How can you not love Usyk?”
Another added: “Usyk is a hilarious man.”
One argued: “You can’t hate Usyk, can you?”
Another laughed: “Greedy belly looks so funny.”
