danny said he will win by any means necessary i wonder what he means here hint hint

[BirdSong]

interesting a career heaviest for Usyk, wonder is that's a statement of intent, he's been consistently 221 apart from the Fury rematch were he was also a career heaviest.

Which I assume that was because he knew he could hurt Fury but I maybe be wrong.

was usyk not wearing his shoes and trackie and jeans for those weight ins with fury if i remember right, i think he was

So Dubois is looking for the KO. That's all I can take away from coming in 10 pounds heavier than he did for their first bout. Glad Usyk decided to add some weight to his frame as well. Hopefully it helps him absorb the punches better. I honestly think this is a 50/50 fight. Usyk is aging and how long can he perform at a high level? Even if it is the heavyweight division where fighters can still see success at advanced ages, you have to factor it in along with the mentality of Usyk. He's a true professional. Comes in and does his job. But he's 38, has achieved great heights, and I'm sure he's financially secure now. Will he have the wherewithal to go through another fight against a younger fighter with a chip on his shoulder?

Dubois weighs the same he weighed for his last fight against Joshua.

Will Usyk have the wherewithal to go through another fight with a younger fighter with a chip on his brain - he can't adjust so Plan A better work for Dubois.

What brain? That is why I got Usyk, hopefully the brain will prevail over the body.
