    Fury does. But I think it’s closer than people think. So many sleep on Usyk’s power.

    P4P Fury hits slightly harder. Neither hits hard for their weight.

    Timing & speed of their punches does the damage and both have never relied on their power.

    Fury has a better array of power punches. Usyk rarely sets himself and throws power punches that's not his style. Fury could throw power shots from birth whilst Usyk has always been trained in that light footed amateurish style.

    Usyk hasn't got enough to deal with Fury. Them sharp hooks & overhands on tired plodders aren't going to have an effect on Fury. You can't head hunt Fury and beat him...and you can't hurt him to the body either. Usyk has to rely on pure boxing and that isn't his style either he is a pressure fighter at heart his outboxing will falter against Fury. Fury on form will shut him down within 3 rounds and start rocking him with long range shots that make the fight a mismatch...or Fury comes off form and just big mans him. Stick Fury in front of all Usyk's opponent they'll get beat to death. I think people are overestimating Usyk's defensive ability yeah some nice angles lateral movement and head movement to avoid shots but he isn't going to be landing his own punches unless Fury tries to be a lazy outboxer.
