    I've never thought Fury did enough to be considered levels above the rest.

    His performance v Usyk was good, but it's being massively overrated. He was good, but don't let a split decision fool you into thinking it was too close to call. I thought it was easy to call and the much better fighter won.

    Fury came out aggressively and Usyk sent him backwards within 20 seconds. Fury made adjustments and had some success but then Usyk adjusted and ran him over in the second half of the fight.

    Usyk's performances against Fury and Joshua have been outstanding. As good as anything we've seen in the heavyweights in a long time.

    But who did Fury beat to cement his place as being clearly better than the rest? I don't see it.

      It will be easier for Usyk this time around.

        Fury will either TKO or get the decision this time. I had him beating the Russian by 4 points last time. This time it will be easier for him

          The reason those wars with Wilder were classic's is that they both had to soak it up and they both left it in the ring .Wilder is shot from them , Tyson looked slightly jaded and the last person he needs opposite him is the 'I will not leave you alone man' Tyson will be lucky to make the distance , Usyk has lots left.

            Fury and Wilder basically helped prop each others reputation up for years. Furys resume since he came back 6 years ago is, outside of the Wilder fights, extremely underwhelming.

            Considering how the Ngannou fight went I really want to see Fury get in there with a big strong heavy hitting guy who he cant physically bully with his size and see if he has the skill, elusiveness and chin to deal with it at this point, someone like Bakole or Zhang. As great as Usyk is, obviously his approach is more based on his movement, pace and sheer boxing skill so its a different kind of fight.

                Fury had TWO training camps back to back last time. He was in the best shape he could be in for his age.

                "I'll just throw more this time,"​ - um really? you gassed last time, you will be in worse shape than last time this time around.



                Fury better just go for the KO early, he cant outlast Usyk down the stretch. Usyk is CONSISTENT in his training, he ALWAYS has top stamina.



                Usyk is weak to the body, all the times we seen him hurt it was a body shot. HIs chin is pretty good, he never was seriously hurt by joshua, dubois, chisora or fury as far as head shots. Hes been hurt by body shots though.


                Tysons only real shot is a body attack early and stoppage by 7 rounds

                  Sounds a lot to me like he's got no idea why he lost and hasn't come up with a gameplan. TBF, I have thought the entire time that he's as overrated as his height claims. Genius at marketing himself, but otherwise a PED cheat who happens to be huge, and better at moving than your average guy who is that huge, and who wins primarily from his size advantage. But he had some good rounds vs Usyk, and it's heavyweight boxing, so anything can happen. I'm hoping people will talk him up enough that Fury will be betting favorite again...

                    “More clinching” he means. These guys the same size and the fight doesn’t go past 5 rounds for him. People overestimate fury’s skills and underestimate how much his size should be attributed to his success. Also the fighter that got the biggest pass for being among the worst and most ****** drug cheats in the sport ever. The attempted cover up alone should’ve seen him banned for life. I hope Usyk brings this shhh to a screeching halt.
