"The biggest problem with these huge heavyweights is their condition in twelve round confrontations." - Fury certainly up until this point hasn't shown any issues when it comes to conditioning BUT he also has extremely low output and hasn't been made to work in a fight so it could be compelling if he is made to do so.
I can see Usyk outboxing him, he struggled with Cunningham when he tried to box with him and was only successful when he bullied him and I feel Usyk's feet are good enough that he won't be able to lean all over him and maul him, an intriguing match up to be sure. -
Usyk's alleged superior skillset over Fury isn't enough to overcome the size differenceComment

Well of course his manager gonna say that. I'm doubtful he'll be able to pull it off personally but that doesn't mean I dont want to see him make the attempt - in fact this is definitely a top 3 must see in the whole of the sport, Likely even #1 in terms of intrigue and significance... Assuming Usyk gets past Joshua course...Comment

Fury looked like the pillsbury doughboy against Wilder, just stretched out. He didn't look as slow as he actually was because Wilder fights on a gas tank that's on E at the start of the first round. But Fury was moving in slowmo if you go back and watch. His punches were sluggish. His movement was sluggish. It was like he was fighting underwater, and the only reason it wasn't more con****uous was due to Wilder being on pause starting the sixth round. If Fury gets in there with Usyk, the speed difference will be astronomical. We'll be watching Fury run around the ring, trying to grab Usyk to lie on him like a wet blanket, but it won't work because he'll be getting punched in the face and gut.Comment

It's the fight we all want, but Fury wins, not due to being bigger, height and weight don't matter imo, any man over 14 stone has the power to knock another man out, and a smaller man has advantages as well. They should be faster, more agility, have more stamina, be able to throw better on the inside, yet, these are all great gifts Fury has! He has things a big man should not have, that's what makes him special, not that he is just big like Valuev.
As skilled as Usyk is, Fury beats him, not because he is bigger, but because he has even more skill, even more versatility, and on top of that, the quickest recovery rate of any fighter in history. If Usyk puts Fury down, we all know, he gets up and comes back kicking Usyk's ass, if Fury puts Usyk down, we don't know how he reacts. He has never been down as a pro, and never massively hurt. Nash out. Nash advises you to look at his top 10 P4P in his sig. It is worthy of respect. It's time y'all put some respect on the Fury name and the greatest era of the HW division the world has ever seen. We are long past the garbage 90s. Nash out.Comment

Yup, Usyk was only at 40% vs Joshua, he's gonna whoop fury and Usyk's manager has also confirmed for his next act he will give Atlas a rest and hold up the earth.
Let's just wait and see shall we, if Fury takes Usyk seriously I don't give him much of a chance, Fury isn't a stiff, chinny bodybuilder with no stamina and with all time low confidence like Joshua, it's simply not the same scenario at all.Comment

Fury is a far superior boxer to AJ in every department, and he'll beat Usyk any way he wants to, front foot or back foot, it doesn't matter.
Fury is levels above everyone, including Usyk.Comment
arnt you just repeating what the deluded AJ fans were confidently claiming pre usyk fight? You didnt seem very confident after that fight, but now fanboyism logic has taken over bud?
