Fury gets KO'd in the rematch

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

That's very true. Also, Fury has to know that he doesn't have 24 year old legs anymore. He just can't circle the ring against Usyk for twelve rounds without him eventually getting tired, languishing on the ropes and getting himself caught flush on the chin at age 36.

Two things I’d like to see Fury try and do is take centre ring and also box as a southpaw. Usyk couldn’t miss with the left hand and it’s a lot easier to land against an orthodox fighter.

It's possible. Usyk has taken some punches from big HWs and it's only a matter of time before that wear and tear catches up to him. He's already 37.

While true, Fury has been dropped how many times now?

8.

Neven Pajkic
Steve Cunningham
Deontay Wilder four times
Francis Ngannou
Oleksandr Usyk

He also has been cut several times recently, most notably against Wallin but also in the Ngannou fight and then the sparring cut that delayed Fury v Usyk the first time around.

For the second fight (if it happens - not convinced), Fury

- will come in heavier and wear a beard
- will revert to his Kronk version stylistically
- will be much more verbally aggressive towards Usyk in the press conferences and elsewhere in an attmept to push himself into beast mode; will probably keep repeatinh the narrative that Usyk won the first because of the Ukraine war, and maybe even say nasty stuff about Ukraine

Whether he will have success with the above is a different thing, as with more weight he is also slower, which may not be a good idea against Usyk.

[Mammoth]

Possibly. Fury isn't a stranger to being out down and I can't imagine his punch resistance is getting better. I'd bet on an Usyk decision personally.

I re-watched the full fight today that HE Turki uploaded to his channel (brilliant 4K video). Fury was doing quite well when he was aggressive and coming forward. He won those rounds quite easily. Those would be rounds 3-6 (both inclusive). He did okay in round 11, and in my opinion, won round 12. Round 2 is also close and could go either way but I will lean towards Usyk. The main thing was when Tyson was coming forward and throwing punches, some of them did bother Usyk and slowed his attack. If he comes in aggressive in the rematch, I can see him winning or even stopping Usyk. The question is will Fury have the courage and discipline to do it knowing he got clipped and can get hurt? It is still a competitive fight for me that could go either way.

The first fight showed Usyk as the smarter and more disciplined boxer who won that fight but not as the definitive winner of any future fights.

I’ve watched the 12th frame by frame and all the action from Tyson was either missed or answered by Usyk. And Usyk was the ring general setting the pace, from 1st to 3rd minute. It was marginal but no way a Tyson round, Usyk also throw the best shot of that round, I believe a right hook. If you give that round to Tyson then surely you can cherrypick more rounds like the third.

Usyk will be coming in with the psychological advantage, but Fury certainly has every chance to win.
