    Usyk inside game

    Was watching the Chisora fight and he didn’t have much of a clue what to do. Content on holding while Chisora was roughing him up.

    Fury would fight an inside fight and beat him easily

    Usyk is very beatable at HW. It’s just a boxer puncher isn’t the style to do it

    Who do you suggest could rough him up on the inside at heavy then?

    Just Fury? Didn't seem to fair too well v southpaw Wallin.

    Styles make fights and nobody at heavy likes Usyks

      Fury roughs him up easy work

      Not many good prime brawlers current

      What I do know is Usyk hasn’t got a Scooby snack when he’s in close with a big man

      AJ is a constant state of rigor mortis and can’t fight the fight he needs to.

        Could argue that no heavyweight, including Fury has a scooby about fighting a southpaw.

        I mean, we've seen Fury struggle with a far lesser, very average southpaw in Wallin. Imagine what Usyk would do to him?

        Fury was able to walk Wilder down because Wilder has no footwork, or leg strength. He can't adjust because he's very basic. Just got his feet into a tangle.

        Chisora was able to walk down Usyk because he's a short, stocky, compact boxer. Fury is none of these.

        You a Fury fanboy I'm guessing? No idea. But point is, it doesn't hurt to have a balanced view about any fight.

        Usyk is everyone's kryptonite. Could argue Fury is too. Maybe even AJ with the right mindset.

          Yes Usyk is beatable. Yes style's make fights.

          One question is how often is Fury going to be able to get close enough to fight on the inside?

          Also depends on how much the ref lets them fight on the inside and how strict he is with holding etc.

          Another factor is what the judges like. Maybe Usyk does cleaner work at mid to long range and they prefer that to the ugly, mauling stuff on the inside?

          it's an interesting fight which I would like to see regardless of tonight's result.

            Nah I can’t stand Fury

            And believe it or not I really like AJ

            But doesn’t cloud my judgement

            Usyk isn’t everyone’s Kryptonite at HW. He’s very beatable. Unfortunately the current crop of HWs aren’t that great.

            He can’t fight inside. He holds and doesn’t engage

            I’d whoop him myself

              Fury is also hittable on the inside and has been dropped multiple times against a guy who was essentially unproven. Fury has been dropped by cruiserweight, lost against McDermott.

                I disagree. Fury would whip him with a long jab and straight rights, THEN on the inside with hooks.

                  Like he did Wallin?

                    Fair play, didn't realise you were an actual internet tough guy. I take back what I said.
