    And to whom do you attribute this godly quality this magic lead foot of USYK? I don't see any gigantic fighters who have a tremendous reach advantage over him that he's done this to. Joshua has some reach but Usyk did not be Joshua by being in front of him all night.

    He beat Joshua by attacking at key points and becoming physical with him when he could.

    You're underestimating Furys ability to use distance. Watch the Vlad fight and that should tell you everything you need to know. It's not that USYK could not get inside, or into position, it's just that it would be very difficult given furys skill set.
    We'll see.

    I think you're underestimating Usyk's ability to control the distance. He controls distance like no-one else in the division.

    If the fight becomes about fighting from range, then I pick Usyk every single time.

    Fury's jab is a weapon. But Usyk isn't going to be a stationary target for it.

      i think if it is a midrange game then Usyk will pepper Fury and beat him to the punch. But if it’s a potshotting and clinching fury (everytime Usyk comes too close) with his ring generalship I think he can offset Usyk movement’s speed and at times make him run into something.
