Did Fury stage/plan cut to outcycle/outpeak Usyk?

    Simpletons won’t see this but it’s actually a pretty good strategy.

    Fury would know months in advance they would not be fighting on February 17th. He’d be taking his training easy, not peaking yet, knowing that the fight would actually happen later in the year, and plan his training/cycling accordingly.

    Usyk meanwhile is training his ass off for the Feb 17th date. Then 2 weeks before the fight, when he’s pushed his body to the limit in training and is close to peaking, the fight is called off.

    Now, Usyk needs to prepare for a new date 3 months down the line, but does he have enough time to start another cycle, recover, rebuild, and peak effectively again?

    This might just win Fury the fight.

    Everyone who thinks Fury cut himself on purpose should be banned from talking boxing. And I don't even like the guy that much at the moment.

    Both Fury and Usyk have been jockeying each other HARD in terms of timing

    Of course people only whine about Fury doing it though

    Hard facts are Fury knew he was fighting Usyk post Chisora then during the year long wait for Saudi money Fury still got out of shape which shows how little care he has about fighting this middleweight it will be easy work for him...also because he has shot joints which shouldn't be worked anymore than necessary.

    When Fury eats this midget and clinches his ballsack into Submission I don't want to hear any whining

    Don't think it was intentional, but it does seem to work out of Fury's favor.

    Remember when Fury was criticising Wlad for excessive clinching? So called "jab and grab style"? Now apparently clinching is the smartest move a boxer can pull against the smaller opponent and it shows his greatness, lol.

    Doubt it was on purpose but it looks to be a fortuitous event, as it gave more time to get in a shape he couldn't have been in by the time of the original date.

    Yes, I think so.

    I think, Fury, Warren, Al Turki and Hearn are all in on it, they will rob Usyk and push him out of equation somehow. Then they will make the mega fight between AJ and Fury in the end of this year.

    Very possibile. And I dont write it because I like more Usyk and want him to win. Its just fact that boxers on higher level use "tricks" to make their chances bigger.

    Fury lost weight. Looks it was biggest cutting from long time. Its very possible that he dont feel 100% then and need some time to get used to new weight.

    I will said if he do it on purpose its more because of him and his limitation in time to prepare best shape. Usyk time its just bonus here.

    And Yes. Video record by 0.3 VGA camera in 2024 cut just in most important time is suspicious.

    While big fights are happening, fix are also happening due to Saudi influence.

    They just want Usyk out of the picture and are staging everything against him.
    UK and USA fighters has always been favouritable by the crock judges/refs.
    You need to win 9-3 clearly to win a SD barely....
    Anything less and it's a loss and fake fangirls will always find an excuse.
    Boxing lost me completely last couple of years.
    But what can you expect when fighter promoters are the one picking judges and refs and they are staging in their own fighter country, when everyone knows that even the walls helping in home....
    But what happen when even against all the odds and stacking Usyk destroy the serial ducker??? How embarrassing that will e??? Being allow to cheat, and everything stacked for you, and also have a huge 50 lbs, height and reach advantage???
    As far as the cut, the phone video quality is telling it all.
    Should i even mention the leaked info of a bad camp for Fury??? And then he suddenly comes out with a cut and a video from the 80s.
    Should i even mention the fraud threaten Usyk with a lawsuit for the December fight yet he was the one pulling out once again??
    I will wait for the fight, before comment on anything related to that guy.

    People may want to ridicule the OP, but, given Fury's dubious behavior in the past, there is likely some truth to it. Fury has already been proven to be a drug cheat in the past. I have zero doubt he is on PEDs for this fight. But, as fat as he keeps getting, it may be too little, too late. Even with his cheating.

    I don't think he self inflicted a slash into his eye flesh ,giving himself permanent scar tissue that is easily opened if hit or rubbed against with a boxing glove.
