Seems like the general public think Usyk is a shoe in to win and are giving Fury very little chance.
Fury's head cheerleader on YouTube Ultratech Sports has gone totally awol and not uploaded for weeks leading into this.
In terms of pundits, it's 80% picking usyk.
Fair to say Fury is up against it.

Haven't seen that tbh but I would put Firy at about 60/40 favourite.
Just watched Usyk vs Gassiev and realised that Usyk only ever fights one way. Angles circling and turning his opponent and peppering with shots. How will fury deal with that?
If Usyk wins I'd expect it to be be fairly easy for him. But the most likely outcome is Usyk tiring out and getting stopped by accumulation of punches in the championship rounds.
Go to that other big forum based your side of the pond. Also think the Pro Box heads mostly favor Fury. Overall opinion looks pretty evenly divided to me...
I've been thinking Usyk is too much for Fury the whole time, but it's pretty clear Fury has more paths to victory, and doesn't even need to have a good performance to win, as we saw vs Ngannou, when he got dropped, and outlanded in power punches, and still got every benefit of the doubt on the scorecards.
I'm tipping Usyk. I even think Usyk might make him look silly.
But in the back of my mind is that I thought Fury would never fight Usyk because it is very high risk and he doesn't need to do it. He's never really let me down before - he's been entirely predictable.
Now it's looking more and more likely that he makes it to the ring, I'm wondering what he knows that the rest of us don't.
