The match took place on 18 May, with Usyk walking away the victor.
Days before the match, Drake shared his gambling slip on Instagram Stories showing that he was rooting for Fury.
Usyk spoke about his excitement to go and be with family after attending a nine-month training camp before the match.
"I don't want to think about boxing now," Usyk said at the post-fight press conference, according to Express.
"My camp started in September 2023 and I worked for nine months.
"I missed Happy New Year, I missed my son's birthday, I missed my other son's birthday, I missed my daughter's birthday and then the birth of my daughter. I also missed family holidays. I was only focused on this fight. Now I'm happy and I want to go back home."
