Random: Boxing Champ Cosplays as Hitman's Agent 47 for Fury Presser

"Names are for friends, so I don't need one"

by · Push Square

Oleksandr Oleksandrovych Usyk looked especially intimidating during the press conference for the upcoming Usyk vs Fury 2 match in London, with the pugilist rocking up in a convincing Agent 47 cosplay. Sporting the character's signature shaved head, black suit, red tie, black briefcase, and leather gloves, we have to imagine the opposition felt true fear.

The undefeated Ukrainian heavyweight champion's Hitman reference likely went over the heads of many sports fans unfamiliar with the legendary stealth series, but at least whoever is running the official Hitman X account seemed suitably impressed. You can check out the dramatic moment for yourself in the clip below:

Made me chuckle. Wish he'd had gone all in with the tattoo though 😂

Listen fury turned up to a press conference as batman so this is subtle in comparison and very fitting. Considering usyk is basically the hitman in the world of boxing. He shouldn't of beaten most his opponents when looking at the man, yet once he's in that ring and doing what he knows, he can be unstoppable.

Very fitting and he did pull it off. Yea probably should of gone all the way but may not of had the time to source a barcode sticker hahaha

I'd have been more impressed if he showed up as 2B

Ricky Hatton probably kicking himself right now

I've just seen this on Sky Sports News. One of the presenters said he was dressed as Agent 47 from the film, Hitman. While technically correct, it still mildly angered me.

The best live-action version of Agent 47 yet.

Agent Feel “Dereck, I’m coming for you Dereck!”

BBC News ran a piece on this, with the presenter saying he 'dressed up as the video game character Hitman'.

I had to stop myself from going on a rant and scaring everyone around me.

That is brilliant 😂

I’ve always been a fan of Fury but since Usyk came onto the heavyweight scene I’ve been liking the bloke more and more, he just seems so genuine and a really nice fella. Him dressing up as one of my favourite video game characters just tops it off for me 👏🏼

Bro is gonna have a hard time fitting into any disguises 😅
