    Always get a kick out of these goofballs who act as if Usyk isn't any kind of factor in the fight. Whether it be the Fury or Joshua inclined folks, it's always some kind of "well if Fury/Joshua would've done this, or pressed harder in the middle rounds, or this, or that he would've won." Did it ever occur that the reason they didn't is because Usyk is clearly The Master Of The Squared Circle who is multiple levels above both? The main/most difficult aspect he has to contend with is Fury's/Joshua's size advantage.

    Here is a fun little thing I think about from time to time whenever I read one of these types of articles. It's so fun, you'll probably see me repeat it in another post in the future : )

    So - "well if so and so would've done this, or would've done that", let's:

    - imagine a 6' 9" Usyk versus a 6' 3" Fury - what would the outcome be?

    ​- magine a 6' 6" Usyk versus a 6' 3" Joshua - what would the outcome be?

    And to take it further, Usyk looks smaller than 6' 3" to me. If you agree, adjust accordingly.

      I think fury doesn't move like he use to obviously he's older and alot bigger than he use to be when he was younger when he fought wlad and I don't think his punch resistance has been the same since the wilder fights. Apart from the second fight they were tough fights were he got hit hard and dropped especially in the third fight because them kinda fights take alot out of you and even the last fight with Usyk he got hit alot and hurt so you got factor that stuff in

        Usyk does it again if he doesn't get caught with a big shot. The giant is always dangerous & big size advantage. Should be another weight class but oh well.

          Wasn't hyped for the 1st fight. Knew the MW would be too good.
          Even less thrilled with a rematch
          It will only be easier for the MW.

            Usyk wins a close(r) fight but gets jobbed on the cards. Joshua gets to fight Fury for a belt. We all lose.

                Unfortunately for Fury Usyk has always shown when he's in a jam he'll bite down and actually turn the tide something I'd attribute to Fury previously but not anymore...

                That look on his face in the third Wilder fight when he got KD was one that immediately made me think he was saying to himself "FFS, do i have to get up, I can't be arsed anymore!?" and truthfully just think instinct or pride is the only reason he continued but that'll only take you so far...
                Fury hardly used any defense in the third fight with Wilder. He was walking in with his hands down, being completely negligent defensively and Wilder still couldn't stop Fury. Tyson Fury had no respect for Wilder in that fight because Wilder is not a smart or STRONG fighter. I've never seen Fury be so reckless as he was in that fight..., and he STILL beat the crap out of Deontay.

                  People are talking like Fury just got caught. He got caught cause he was fatigued from the pressure Usyk was putting on him from round 1. It was also due to this fatigue he was hurt so badly. If Fury is to reverse the result he will need to be a lot fitter to deal with Usyk’s output, I’m not sure he can be at 36. I expect another close fight with Usyk taking over late on to edge the decision.

                  Usyk is even older, except he will be in shape. Fury will look like he had 50 meals worth of Thanksgiving. To quote the legengard Dean Wormer, " Fat, drunk, and ****** is no way to go through life. "


                  Maybe Fury is doing an ad for a hair club for men? ​

                    MW?
                    What's that mean?
                    Why are you referring to Usyk as MW?

                      i hear you Smash but sometimes in a close fight it comes down to something like " who wants it the most " rematch's can be funny things sometimes they dont look anything like the first time, the energy and the drive get lost or they or both are just not as sharp and willing to do what it takes. What concerns me is Usyk talking of going down in weight at one time (serious ?) that is a diversion which can take the edge OFF Fury can join the circus and still come to the fight with his same mentality one thing is for sure Usyk is the smaller guy and he won the first fight and i got him winning the second one....... wait that is three duh.....
