    That WBC Union belt is a thing of beauty.

    Very good performance from Fury. I think that's as good as he's looked since his comeback.

    He might try, Usyk has better footwork and can slip out. Unlike Whyte, Usyk will also be fit - and probably fitter and more active in the ring than Fury. I honestly believe Usyk would give him a boxing lesson and Fury knows it, hence the retirement and talking about Usyk being a middleweight. Fury remembers Wallin and he knows that Usyk is the one guy who outboxes him. Fury has a punchers chance against Usyk and that’s it, I’d bet it all on Usyk if that fight happened.

    Usyk got pretty marked up in the AJ fight despite clearly winning. You'd have to think Fury would be able land more than AJ, which in turn discourages or makes Usyk's attacks less impactful on the cards.

    I have it 70/30 with Fury's added power and size being the decisive factor.

    Jus like Mayweather, Fury undefeated in real fights, but a journeyman in these fake matchups

    If you think he only has a punchers chance and can't keep Usyk at bay with his jab, then you have absolutely no idea what your're talking about. Fury fears no man born of a woman, he certainly has no fear of Usyk.

    Fury used to hit himself with uppercuts like that, now it's like a ballistic missile, great extension and speed for a big man. Grazing shot but snapped his chin around and that was that.

    White skin gets marked up, I’m not quite sure what your point is with that.

    Usyk will give Fury big problems - the rest of the division are stuck in the mud plodders or finished (Wilder)

    The first round was pretty much a toss-up, no clear winner...I scored it to Fury.

    But all the other rounds were pretty clear Fury rounds.


    And despite all the sour grapes on here, this was a decent scrap with Fury in control from the opening bell.

    Whyte is a top five HW at the moment...he just got outclassed.
