Its an easy fight for him. Easy money. Usyk cannot overcome Fury's reach, especially when Fury fights off the back foot, which adds another two feet to the original reach for Fury.

is Fury better at using his size than AJ was?

Fury is better than AJ at everything. He is also a bit faster than AJ. Power wise, I would say similar. Fury's overall skillset and variation is above even Usyk's for me. He isn't just a big guy, he's an incredible boxer with an outstanding boxing IQ, and a never say die desire. Nash out.

For pride and undisputed?

Nah, its probably for money.

The other way to look at it is if he doesn't take this fight it would hang over him/his legacy. Especially against someone so much smaller.

It has to happen. No excuses.

I don't understand thread? Usyk is rich and risking unbeaten record also. Usyk wants to be seen as the best, that applies to fury also.
lennox is still criticised to this day for not giving vitali a rematch. So can you imagine the criticism fury would get? Tyson will get easier life taking fight the alternative doesn't bare thinking

Something young boxers care nothing about. “LEGACY”. I applaud someone who still wants to beat the very best. Unlike Tank, Charlo’s, Benavidas, Andrade, Ortiz & Haney. I miss someone? Only young guy who risked it all was Teo against Loma. Usyk is another risk taker.
You don’t hear of any ELITE FIGHTER seriously trying to fight Loma. Not Haney.

Easy money + easy legacy

Everything a fighter could want.

The only way Fury can beat Usyk is by grabbing him and leaning on him. The moment Fury starts getting countered and has no answer (which is what will happen), Fury will resort to the hug and lean tactic. If the wrong referee is in the ring, then Usyk is screwed. If the right referee is in the ring, I'm picking Usyk to win.
