Usyk grabbed that fight from the jaws of hell.

There was a point in the fight where it started to feel like Fury might just be too big for Usyk and this was a test too far for him. Usyk looked frustrated even at times and was missing shots. But he kept grinding and kept up the pace and even had the bigger man out on his feet at one point. What a fighter, what a man. Another reason he really should be strongly considered for p4p #1. Great post.

Problem is that is not who Fury is. He was actually serious throughout Wlad, Wilder II and Whyte fight. This fight he played too much for my liking

True this. Fury dominated for 3 consecutive rounds and we thought Usyk was done for. Then fury lost focused, got complacent and fooled around. Kept lowering his guard and paid the price. You can’t do that to usyk who has the best engine, someone who keeps coming and adjusting and never gives up. I thought fury let this one slip, a fight he could’ve won if he was defensively focused all throughout. Problem is that is not who Fury is.

Usy k tired you out, fury didn't lay on usy k much. But fury at times shows glimpses of being better than usyk. But usy k knows how to win over whole course of fight

I wanted Fury to win that so bad but what a fight and what a special fighter Usyk is. I was convinced in those middle round Fury is just too big for him and landing at will every time time Usyk steps inside and when Usyk was wobbled and shook his head to get his senses back in the corner I thought he's done but.. He come back out and totally swung the fight around he controlled the distance again and was landing some nasty shots at will and took Fury out of a fight he was controlling What a great fight between 2 very well matched men they are both miles ahead of the rest in the HW division Usyk is p4p number one zero debate needed

it surprised me that fury decided to box with usyk on the outside and he did better than i expected and was landing a lot but he was also moving around a ton in the early rounds using a lot of energy which is a bad idea when usyk has the best stamina in the division. fury def gassed. and fury got rocked while he was gassed, those same shots he could have ate when he was fresh. they may need to rethink their strategy and step forward to usyk next fight., also tyson abandoned the body attack after it was really successful i have no idea why unless he was just tired. surprised he made it look so easy, but he got complacent, played around and lowered his guard. Lost focused and paid the price dearly. he didn’t imposed his will when he already got usyk, so when usyk got his 2nd wind it was hell for tyson as he was busy recovering from the 9th round instead of trying to win the fight. i think he abandon it because he was already hesitant to throw it in the latter rounds as usyk has already dimisnished him. If he was defensively focused then he wouldn’t taken a lot of damage and could still fire back in the championship rounds.

Fury had Usyk hurt in the sixth and let him off the hook. I don't think he thought Usyk could hurt him... until he started knocking the stuffing out of him. Which happened prior to the Round 9 shot. I do believe that was the best Fury. For 6 rounds he looked great but Usyk always finds way. Usyk is just a special fighter. John Fury saying "you've won the fight" with two rounds to go - the guy needs to be nowhere near Fury's corner. Hopefully Tyson finally sees that. He was already dominating when he found his range. Got complacent, toyed and played around, didn’t imposed his will on Usyk and was contented to box. Kept lowering his guard and paid the price when Usyk got his 2nd wind and landed something big. fury let this one slip for sure

The same thing that happened in the Joshua rematch,happened in the fury fight. Both Joshua and fury had a successful round which seemed to hurt usyk and change the momentum of the fight. The very next round usyk comes back and brings the pain. Rule of thumb,don't hurt usyk. Joshua fought a hell of a fight but he never came close to controlling 3 consecutive rounds and making usyk look ridiculous the way fury did in rounds 4, 5 and 6 which many of us thought Usyk was done for. Missing and lounging eating shots to head and body

Yup, somewhere in 6th round I was like "wtf, old Fury is back, Usyk is just too small. " But Usyk just kept on doing what he was trying to do and than at the end of the 9th round I felt like "wtf, Fury is done". True this he was toying usyk and got complacent. As his fan i was just happy he didn’t get KTFO

Fury lost focus and started showboating in the fight...big mistake when you're against someone who is crafty, conditioned, and has been dreaming of this all his life. Even though I do not have a particular liking for one over the other, I am happy that Usyk won the fight simply because of how Fury behaves sometimes. I am also waiting for John Fury to blame SugarHill Steward.

I perceived him as taking Usyk extremely seriously throughout and I thought he performed very well. It was one of Fury's best fights imo. Fury's legs were terrible and he had no second gear to go to when at multiple times it was needed. Usyk had his worst fight I've seen in years and that gave fury a few rounds.

He wanted it more, he was better prepared and Fury gassed.

Looked great until he got caught. Only question is if tactically they got it wrong by not stepping to Usyk and at least tying him up more when he was sucking air. If Fury wasn't in superb shape he'd have been gone after that big shot. it surprised me that fury decided to box with usyk on the outside and he did better than i expected and was landing a lot but he was also moving around a ton in the early rounds using a lot of energy which is a bad idea when usyk has the best stamina in the division. fury def gassed. and fury got rocked while he was gassed, those same shots he could have ate when he was fresh. they may need to rethink their strategy and step forward to usyk next fight., also tyson abandoned the body attack after it was really successful i have no idea why unless he was just tired.

The nose shot changed the whole fight. What an amazing heavyweight fight. Fury looked as good as he’s looked in a long time. Usyk all heart and relentless. 115-112 Usyk in my card.

for a while fury was putting it on usyk, i never seen someone land that much on Usyk and the body attack was smart and hurting usyk. usyk was even breathing heavy at the end of the round but he got a second wind and tyson gassed. tyson nose was bleeding from the early rounds he was always pawing at it and when he rinsed his mouth in the early rounds you could see the water in the bucket was pink from blood dripping down his throat into his mouth.

Fury gained lots of momentum. Usyk reset and worked him out again. That's IQ. He never loses discipline. Usyk had one cut. Fury's face told the other story. He got lazy or gassed out and paid for it.
