Is Usyk at his lightest ever as a heavyweight?

He needs to move and react faster than usual.

But the problem is, he don't have that speed anymore, nor his reactions are that fast, like before.

I just hope we can see very good first 6 rounds, smart moves, angles, jabs and perfect timing.

His footwork is still very solid, his stamina is impressive, so only thing will be, if he can do something about Furys dirty tactics.

I believe Usyk will get some cuts, elbows and leaning from Fury.

 

Both fury and usyk have slimmed down.

 

Having seen Usyk in real life in Wroclaw, he is not really physically impressive.

 

More weight = more weight on the joints and knees and harder to move around

Plus you don't want a 280lbs Fury leaning on you sapping energy whereas if you are constantly moving you are making him expend energy and gassing him out

 

He will be his usual 220-225 at highest. I don’t think he will come lighter.

 

222

 

There is a thread with fighter updates and 12 min video from Usyk camp in Spain. You can see how he looks there. There is alao full photo shoot updates, but the lightning and angle is misleading. He won't come lighter.
Around 220 which is his usual after AJ 1.

 

Looks about 220 to me, he is fine

 

I would be very surprised if Usyk comes in lighter than in previous fights

 

This was to say that I don't feel like Usyk is any lighter this week than last year. We'll see at the weigh-in but it must be around 100 kilos.

 

219 at least, 222 at the most. No point in coming any lighter or any heavier.
