Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury: Usyk is a Middleweight, I'll Put My Fists Right Through Him

Lol at all the Fury fanboys saying this will be easy. I'm predicting Fury wins but no one is going to beat Usyk easily.

fury will need his full repertoire of tricks, floppy gloves, spiked drink & Food, multiple snakes, bottles of baby oil, high level voodoo magic, extra heavy egg weights, paid ref, extra heavy planted groin guard & maybe more

Talk is cheap. Let's see it.

not necessarily.

Correct Usyk can get hit … I wonder if it’s bc he feels comfortable with those punches and so allows himself to get hit sometimes? He was more careful with chagaev I felt. I feel like is fury is hitting him a lot Usyk will be less aggressive.

Which really is how I can see fury winning. Aggressive and body work.

Except it won’t happen that way. Usyk will never beat Fury.

You are correct about one thing, Wilder would spark out Usyk. Size difference is just too much

I would love to see Wilder against Usyk I think you are correct. Usyk gets hit too much.

These Fury fan men are reminding me of Canelo fans before the Bivol fight. Keep thinking Usyk doesn’t have a chance.

It has to do with his style and his development. Watch older fights at cruiser... Usyk was a physical, aggressive fighter with his foot on the gas. Watch the fight against Hunter. A great example. When Usyk fought Chisora he decided to use long lines and be less confrontational. He wound up getting hit going backwards. So he went back to a style that, while not fighting inside as physically, was dependent on using head movements and lateral movements to avoid then strike. Problem is, unlike a fighter like Holmes, who had perhaps the best lateral movement of any heavyweight fighter, Usyk gets tagged a lot.

Fury is like a big version of Usyk. That's deadly against predictable, orthodox or unskilled fighters.

I'm not sure it's quite so telling against a guy who moves better than him.

Maybe Fury can throw a few feints and then step in behind the one two, then maul Usyk with his size. Or maybe when he steps in Usyk isn't there anymore.

I predict (if it happens) there won't be a high punch count. It'll be cat and mouse. Not a great fight for the neutrals. But intriguing and high level.

Yeah, he took them all, and then dominated the championship rounds.

Of course he took them but he was hurt. Fury won’t let him off the hook though.

If this fight happens in Dec I'd have to say it will have been a pretty good year for boxing, lot of good fights, but this would probably put a hold on Spence vs Crawford until early 2023..
