I like Sugar Hill but for him to say publicly that he's going to change training tactics based on a comment Usyk's manager made, it doesn't say much for his confidence in his fighter or his ability to devise the proper game plan for the fight with Usyk. I mean he already knew Usyk was a southpaw, why would he make changes because of a comment someone from Team Usyk made?
It sounds like Sugar Hill is really feeling the pressure for this one, especially after the dismal performance by Fury against Ngannou. Whether it was Fury's fault or not, you know people will be quick to criticize if Fury looks mediocre against Usyk.

Be prepared for an ugly fight. He will go the Lennox Lewis route punch punch hold and make usyk carry his weight till he slows down. Fury is a smart man with high boxing Iq he knows he can’t match usyks speed

I believe it’s just gamesmanship on both parts, of course both sides are very knowledgeable and would never show their cards and everything that is said to the public is just psychological warfare

I see Fury catching a lot of uppercuts in the clinch. Loma is one of the best at getting out of the clinch and making the other guy pay at the break. Surely Usyk knows a thing or two about that.

I definitely hope that they've got Papachenko and Loma helping out for this camp. Loma has a ton of techniques in the clinch that Fury's never seen.

Gawd I hope so. I'm all in on Usyk for this one. The physical and mental toughness he displayed when AJ had him in trouble with body shots in their last fight really made me a fan. I hope Usyk does to Fury what he did to Bellew. (No offense Tony - I like you, too)

Agreed. I mean, if SugarHill has just learned that Usyk is a southpaw from his promoter, there's a serious problem here!

Usyk is 37 has 21 pro fights has had 5 bouts as a heavyweight and not one has he looked great, and really got stopped by Dubois to be honest but they cheated! Go to his body and use your size to your advantage Javan Sugar Hill don't need to devise a dammmm thing, just go to work and let your hands go! That simple.
