Comments Thread For: How Tyson Fury beats Oleksandr Usyk and how Usyk beats Fury

[Dr. Z]

I do not see how Fury wins, unless he uses low bolws or ohter fouls. What type of shape will Fury be in? We shall see, then I will make an offical call.

I still think Fury needs a referee and, or, judge to favor him, not by much, but enough to justify their preference. To the Eastern European....nothing.

Usyk-Fury II is all about pace. High pace favors Usyk and a slow pace favors Fury.

Fury antics are de facto feints. It helps him stay loose, while having the added benefits of keeping the pace at his preference (slow), and his opponent eventually letting their guard down (they get exhausted at reacting ).

Usyk is a world class operator with great skill at closing distance. He paid little mind to Fury’s antics and pushed the pace from the opening bell with a straight left to the body.

Fury is so good that even Usyk’s endurance couldn’t keep up the pace to keep Tyson under control during the middle rounds so Fury took over.

The biggest issue for Fury will be that Usyk has one of the greatest attributes in boxing bar none and that is his otherworldly second wind. His kick in the latter 3rd of Championship fights has been devastating at Heavyweight.

Tyson will have to put 7 rounds in the bank, then make the fight as ugly as possible.

Forget what I said, this is my new official opinion.........................see how I did that, now it's mine!

Fury started clowning because he was getting tired. If he could stay disciplined and keep the fight on the outside with his jab, then clinch when Usyk got close, he could win a boring decision. That's what I thought he was going to do in the first fight. Maybe he's just not capable of doing it.

Fury looks much lighter now, we shall see i guess....

Fury has the physical tools to win. Question is if he can stay in the fight mentally and be consistent with the gameplan.

I don’t think he is at a point in his career and life where is really all in on his preparation and training despite the talk from him. I think there is a good chance Uskyk drops him for good this time.

I agree that would be a good plan for Fury. Maybe Usyk did not let him execute that plan in the first fight?

Point blank! Usyk is just the better fighter that's all. He could adapt to any style that Tyson Fury brings.

I see a set up of a Fury win to set up another and then another cash fight. This will all be spoiled if Usyk wins. I've watched Fury's chin get weaker and weaker with age.
Don't know how many more blows he can take. Usyk, IMO, will spoil it and win. Knockout would be a possibility.
