there'll be the same excuse as in AJ vs Usyk, the likes of "I thought Joshua would use his size and destroys him, but he tried to outbox him, so it doesnt count"
People forget that fury was dropped by Cunningham who was smaller than usyk with nowhere near the skill....fury has always been 6ft 9” so that hasn’t changed.
we could be on the verge where the super heavy weight finally gets gets overtaken by a normal heavyweight and balances out the division again
Fury is a 6'9, 19 stone version of Usyk with more reach and power. With Wilder, Fury always had to be cautious of the right hand. He won't care about that with Usyk so he'll just rush him and use his size and weight. KO within 5 rounds.
How many people has Fury KO'd within 5 rounds? I think Fury wins this fight but he won't stop the best boxer he's ever faced within 5 rounds imo. Usyk has the skill, the conditioning and the chin to go the distance.
He’s also one of the dirtiest HW champ in recent history. People forgot that Fury was suspended for 2yrs for cheating and using PEDs.
Don't worry I'm listening although i don't see Usyk causing Fury too many problems .AJ should adopt the same tactics Fury used against Wilder and hold and clinch where ever possible.

What you can hear right now is the sound of the nail being hit firmly on the head.
Joshua is a lot easier to beat because he's, like Bruno was, a bodybuilder with gloves on so is a lot easier to hit. He's too static.
Fury is a different kettle of fish altogether, his feinting and movement makes him VERY difficult to hit and his engine is just plain ridiculous. Fury looked like he could do all of those rounds again in that third fight lol :eek::lol1:
This fake outrage about Usyk not getting credit for the Joshua win is......odd to say the least? He's getting plenty of credit for that win, as he should.
And no, if he beats Fury and Joshua in the rematch, he will jump up to legendary status.

Fury is more problematic for Usyk, but Usyk has the pure boxing skills to overcome it. I think it'll be competitive. Can Fury get up for a Usyk fight like he did for Wilder? He started the fight flat-footed, not working his jab, etc. He can't do that against a more skilled boxer like Usyk, in my opinion.
Key will be how would Usyk deny Fury's inside game which is possible with skills. AJ imo is better counter puncher than Fury and he marked Usyk with those counters.
I also think the size of Fury will play a bigger role in this one than it did against AJ. Fury uses that size well. He's a big guy that can move well with the size which makes him extra difficult. He won't just stand in the middle of the ring to let Usyk tee off on him.
If we can say, Usyk got by comfortably against a static AJ, yet got marked up, I think it'll be a bigger mountain to climb against Fury. Again, mostly because of the size advantage Fury has.
