Despite usually being ringside whenever Tyson fights, Paris recently revealed that ‘hates’ watching her husband fight. 

“I hate it, I've got to be truthful, that's the flat out answer. I support him but I don't enjoy it. I hate being there but on the other hand, I feel like I have to be there.

“I feel like, if I'm not there, what happens if something goes wrong and I’m not with him?” She admitted.

Meanwhile, Usyk’s wife Yekaterina embraced the limelight in a cream wide-legged trouser suit and was seen posing for snaps with ex boxer Wladimir Klitschko.  She beamed with pride and didn’t hesitate to deliver a victory kiss to her Usyk after his historic win was announced. 

Although Paris vows to ‘never not be’ by her husbands side again, a rematch hasn’t yet been confirmed.

Despite her husband surviving the brutal onslaught in round nine, fears are mounting around the possibility that Fury may well hang up his boxing gloves for good and retire following this defeat.

Commenting on the fight, former World Champion Johnny Nelson told Sky Sports: "I think Tyson Fury will be devastated at the result of that.

"Tyson's team will have serious conversations about motivating him after this and get his mind back.

Despite speculation around Fury's potential retirement, the Gypsy King insisted that he was the real winner and didn't rule out a rematch in the future saying: "We both put on a good fight. His country is at war, so people are siding with the country at war.

"Make no mistake, I won that fight in my opinion. We've got a rematch clause.

"I've had a split decision loss to a good little man. We run it back in October. Well done Oleksandr."

Therefore, there may well still be time for Paris to make good on her promise to remain by her husband's side in the near future.

Let's see if Paris' husband takes his chance to light his 'winning cigar' if the two decide to go head to head again in October.
