Comments Thread For: Hopefully age wont impact Oleksandr Usyk-Tyson Fury II, but be ready for the possibility

[r.burgundy]

It wasn't Fury's chin,
At the end of the first Usyk cracked Fury's nose & he winced. In the 8th Usyk cracked his nose again & this time Fury cleared it (or tried) all over Usyks back & for the next 2 rounds Fury couldn't breath & gassed. You could argue after that Fury won the last 2.
I don't think Usyk can improve & ive been backing him since before Aj but if Fury's still got it & with the extra sparring for cardio he couldn't do fight 1 i think Fury edges it & Turkish gets his trilogy wish.

A favour, can the writer's please start putting down the Fury Aj fight for unified Edward keeps trying to chirp into existence if Fury wins, seriously the entitlement, get back in line & fight Wilder.

The hell does "clearing his nose" have to do with him almost being knocked out lol?
Being unable to breath from a stuffy nose isn't gonna suddenly make your legs wobbly and unable to defend yourself lol

There is a good reason why fury tried to age usyk out lol. He stalled the fight as long as he possibly could. Furys claim to fame is wilder. Fury didn't wanna fight anybody who can put a few punches together like aj, or usyk.
Fury can't deal with any type of hand speed

Fury by KO.

Fury is going to terrorise Usyks body.

I think the fight is gonna look exactly the same as the first and like the first one whoever badly hurts the other one is gonna win.

Fury is still gonna fight off the back foot. The Wilder II rematch gets brought up as if Fury could march Usyk down. Even Fury said if he done that he'd get tied up on knots. Wilder wasn't very good. Fury just felt he could completely take his right hand away even climbing off the couch because of the talent gap between the two but he couldn't.

Usyk has to be a favorite because he won the first and it is hard to shake a feeling the Fury's punch resistance has gone and his recovery is waning. And that's based on what we are seeing in his last few fights.

Maybe he feels more secure in himself if he's bigger. I am certain it is another quality fight. I just cant envison him making the breakthrough he needs and really hurting Usyk. Without it even if he doesn't get rocked himself he's just gonna be the one putting more gas into the fight. Usyk is nightmare with his foot pressure and feints he zaps everyone. Unless Fury smashes his face in he's gonna get outlasted.

I want Fury to win. I just don't think he does.

I like this perspective but I think experience will be the factor here.Gonna be a great fight. And AJ didn’t age overnight. He will always be a hype job who avoided the best fighters of that particular era. He was cleverly matched to keep the hype going especially leading into the Dubois fight. Looking at both of their respective opponents leading up to, Dubois faced significantly better opposition That outcome is the epitome of “you’re only as good as your opponents”. AJ is only mentioned alongside fury and wilder because he swerved both. Eddies con job.
