FURIOUS fans fumed there was “more atmosphere in Greggs” than in the Kingdom Arena ahead of Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk.
The two unbeaten heavyweights finally step into the ring together tonight in the biggest fight of the century.
The two fighters put all the belts on the line aiming to become undisputed world champion.
However, fans watching on at home were utterly underwhelmed by the lack of anticipation and excitement inside the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh during the undercard in the build-up to the main event.
And they were not afraid to make their feelings clear on social media.
One said: “Decent fights, but there’s was more atmosphere in Greggs earlier.”
A second joked: “Atmosphere in saudi is f***ing w***. Could hear a mouse fart!”
A third added: “More atmosphere at a wake than at the boxing!”
A fourth commented: “Zero atmosphere at the boxing, might as well have this match in the car park at the local Morrisons. Let’s hope it livens up for the main event!”
A fifth typed: “Isn’t it awful to see one of the biggest fights in boxing history and the atmosphere is shocking! Taking away the spectacle of boxing and what an atmosphere brings to it! Sad to see.”
