    This will be a super boring fight and the only winners are Usyk and Fury. No need for sleeping pills if you’re an insomniac, this is the fight you only dream of.

      AJ style is terrible for Uysk and it showed the two times they fought when he beat him relatively easily and definitely clearly.
      I felt like AJ started better in the second fight. When he went to the body, Usyk didn`t like it.

        He seems to love boxing so I could see it happening.

          He can still love boxing as an elite trainer and give up getting punched in the face and gut.

          I doubt he loves that!

He doesn't have the power to stop Fury and he is up against a guy far larger than him with superior boxing skills and a huge reach advantage.

            Fury is going to stop him, likely with a bodyshot. The only chance Usyk has is a boring UD where he hits and runs. And Fury will press him and almost certainly not allow that.

              I really don't see anything left for him after beating Fury in the rematch. Where will the drive even come from? He's won every title and beat all the best of his era.

                He can still achieve being a long reigning champion, if he retires now yeah he won every belt and beat the top 2 of the division but it was smash and grab and over before you knew it.

                I saw someone online compare Usyk to Khabib in MMA, it would benefit Usyk's long term legacy once recency bias calms down, for him to defend his belt 3 or 4 times against top contenders, if he does that nobody will be able to complain about anything.

                  I'd say Usyk's situation is more like Jon Jones, Cleaned out his division, defended his belts, moved up to HW and got to the top of the mountain. Nothing left to prove.
