this new Fury might be unstoppable

Usyk gets hit a lot more than people care to admit too or realise.
Usyk is one of my very favourite fighters but he’s not some slick defensive wizard. He has some great skills, but not that hard to hit. His fights show that.
I do wonder how that’ll work out for him at HW.
Look at how badly Fury knocked Cunningham out. Cunningham has never been badly knocked out like that and that was pure size difference. A cruiserweight isn’t really built for being hit by a 6’9 man with even decent power.
Usyk openly admitted Fury would be his hardest fight at HW. Fury can equal his ring IQ and skills. I think it’ll be a simple case of a really good big man beating a really good smaller man.Comment

When his fight with Takam got made for his first HW bout, I didn't think he'd start off so tough, and needless to say, he didn't, then Chisora and he's injured again. I really do think he is stalling.Comment

This. Usyk is nowhere near as skilled as Fury. Usyk strengths are being very techncally efficient, having great stamina, and being able to go through the gears when needed. He would lose so badly to Fury it would be embarrassing for him. I actually think that he will lose to Chisora if that fight happens. Chisora is very aggressive right now and is throwing bombs galore. His physical strength is way beyond Usyk's, and I'm also very skeptical about Usyk's contant "injuries" since moving to HW.

The funny thing is i said last week on here that Usyk’s injuries might be worse than they’re admitting. By the time he fights again, it’ll be only his second fight in almost 2 years. That’s serious inactivity due to injuries. Something isn’t right.
Maybe they’re just looking for that AJ money fight, because he’s mandatory for the WBO.
I’d pick Usyk to beat Chisora, because Chisora struggles with people that can box and move. But if you’re really struggling with injuries and still not really tested at HW, you wouldn’t want a physical guy like Chisora mauling you.
So we’ll see i guess. As i said, Usyk is one of my favourites, but something is off.Comment

No one can deny how good he is but the only thing is I don’t think Fury would dominate for years simply because he seems like the type that would get bored and retire straight after becoming undisputed or go off the rails again which would be a shame.Comment

I had sparring partners who averaged 270 so anyone getting outweighed knows the size advantage to these guys in my case in my day was outweighed by a good 100 pounds bc I was 155 but was the power puncher, I even knocked off face guards they had to wear at times ,but...
The answer to the thread is Joshua would knock him out and Let’s not let Wilders terrible boxing get carried away ,he’s a good fighter tough but it doesn’t make Fury Superman now, Fury was always that good you guys were duped on buying Wilders b.s . Fury could ride out a career undefeated but if he doesn’t fight Joshua we know why .Comment
