    We keep hearing that Fury should have gone on the front foot. I think he did - for the first 2 seconds before Usyk landed a couple of good lefts to the body.

    Joshua shouldn't have tried to outbox him. I don't think he did, just as I don't think Fury tried to. It's Usyk's pressure dictating the way they fight against him.

    I don't see Fury's answer. He doesn't hit with the kind of speed or power to consistently move Usyk from the centre of the ring. If Usyk has room to move in and out then he beats them all.

    I'd give Joshua a better chance and he's already failed twice. I actually think prime Wilder would have fared better than these two. Styles make fights.

      Usyk literally said at the final presser or weigh in: “I will not leave you alone”. Was very true on fight night.

          Fair enough prediction but Fury could have adjusted in that first fight and he didn't. Instead had lots of excuses like "I was just playing around" and "they told me I was winning". The guy pretty much got KO'd....

          I think Usyk gets better (having done 12 rounds with Fury) and Fury gets worse in this fight - like the 3rd Wilder fight when everyone said it was a pointless fight and Fury almost lost

          I predict Usyk to win on points again

            That left hand will keep landing, and keep landing and keep landing because fury showed he can’t make that adjustment. He bites on the feint and leans straight back right, head is gonna always be in the same place.

              If there is a rematch, Usyk by KO. Warren is just trying to sell the fight and he’s FOS!

                  It was a fight of two halves. One half, Fury remembered who he was and how he got in the ring. Second half...

                    Joseph Parker is the best bet to go the distance and outbox Usyk for a decision. He's more then earnt the right to try.

                    Fury and Joshua can have their all brit pissing contest that no one gives a shït about anymore.
