    That is a big IF and I think that would be the worst strategy. Usyk was really uncomfortable against Chisora and got hurt against Dubois. Neither is a top-skilled boxer but both are bigger than Usyk and can punch hard. Usyk stepping inside and staying within range also has consequences associated with it. Firstly, Fury feints punches quite well so it will keep Usyk guessing. Secondly, even if Usyk does not want to, Fury can initiate the clinches and weigh him down or push him around to off-balance him. It is not easy for Usyk to stay in range and not be punished for it.

    His best bet would be to stay just out of range and be quick on his feet so he can close the gap, score a few points, and get out of range very quickly. Easier said than done and that too against a skilled boxer. He created most of his angles against AJ because he is Southpaw but Fury can switch stances too and negate those angles. Definitely, his hardest challenge to date.

        Usyk will stay at range and make fury over commit and walk into counters much like ngannou did

        It won't take long for usyk to figure fury out.

        He'll start dominating round 5 onwards I'd say

        I picked fury before due to his size but them standing side by side usyk could close the gap easily I think

          Both Fury and Usyk lost their last fights so this fight still 50-50. Ngannou showed that if Fury can't be a size bully, his aggressive style becomes severely compromised. Problem for Usyk is he doesn't have the size to ragdoll Fury that way. But he may have the strength to break out of Fury's clinches as he was able to do with AJ. If that happens, the fight might become more of a tactical chessmatch, instead of a clinchfest, and Usyk's speed, timing and ring IQ might be enough to win. Flipside, if Fury lands similar body shot as Dubois, and Usyk drops, the chances are it'll be counted as legal instead of a low blow. Fury will be looking for that shot for sure.

              I still see Fury hanging on Usyk like a human blanket. The hug factor is high with Fury. I can't get the Cunningham fight out of my mind. But who knows. I'm rooting for Usyk. I do think Usyk can drop Fury because, contrary to popular believe, it's not so much about the power but about the technique and accuracy of a punch, and I think Usyk can hit that chin hard enough.

              We'll see. But that face-off was a prelude for things to come, such as headbutts and hugging, IMO.

                Phonetic spelling. Lots of people write out words in a way that mimics how they pronounce them, even if it's incorrect.
