Watching back Usyk vs Fury

[4truth]

I had 115-113 , watched again I got 116-112.

If Fury had trained, or even could train like Usyk, he'd be a truly great fighter. He's very skilled for his size, great ring IQ but he has to pace himself. Against most HW fighters that slower pace still wins most rounds but Usyk is not most HW fighters. Take your foot off the gas, even a lttle, and Usyk takes over.

It's the fact that Usyk is so good at negating the clinch, he obviously put a lot of work into that, Fury would try to clinch a lot to get rests but I was amazed with Usyks ability to get his shoulder in the way and push the 50lb bigger man off. Clearly he's put a LOT of hours into that.

It show what makes Usyk special, remember the Klitschko era no opponent could handle the clinch from him, they were just clueless, I don't think one opponent went into the ring with a plan for that apart from complain to the ref, and it's not like they didn't know Klitschko was going to clinch.

Usyk covers all the bases.

First half of the fight was competitive, where you can make and argument that the rounds were split or that even Fury was up by a round, 1-2 Fury, 3-4 Usyk, 5 Fury. However, from round 6 until the end it was all Usyk. Usyk though did not dominate 6-12, but he did do just enough to clearly win.

I thought this as well but it turns out Usyk didn't actually start boxing until he was 15. He's even said himself that the first two boxing gyms he went to turned him down for being "too old", hah.

- - Usyk upended the SuperHeavyweight era in just about every category you can think of.

The average ring weight of his 31 Professional opponents greatly exceed the first 120 years of boxing by a significant degree.
