AJ was all too predictable for Usyk who got into his rhythm and was easily scoring. Fury has good footwork, great upper body movement, and lots of feints so it won't be as easy for Usyk. Fury is also more well-rounded in boxing and adapts during the fight. He will also use his size and reach to the fullest including roughing up Usyk and going for body shots, something AJ lacked completely.
The only fear was if a less-than-the-best Fury would show up, like the one that faced Ngannou but that doesn't seem to be the case. Fury looks slim meaning he is taking this seriously and has put in a lot of work. Fury being slim is also an indication that he expects a fast-paced fight where stamina will be tested, rather than stand and trade to knock him out like he did with Wilder. He knows if he comes in heavy, Usyk will be elusive and tire Fury down to win on points. So, I see a Fury that is so far ticking all the right boxes, at least from the looks of it.
I expect a very technical, fast-paced fight with each boxer changing tactics during the fight but with Fury coming out victorious.

This fight will be decided by if Fury has his legs still or if he's become shot and stiff kneed.
If his knees are stiff then he will lose.
