    All the Fury hate here and it is that close?

    Probably only further reason to suggest Fury will win.

    Maybe it was that John Fury headbut, idk. Hadn't really felt the magnitude of this fight in previous weeks, maybe because there were good fights every weekend leading up to it. It's all hitting now.

    Incidentally, my channel poll is more or less in the same ballpark here.

    Fury's looks loose and sharp. Nice feet in the open workout.

    Best open workout i've seen from him in YEARS

    Feet look on it which is the key, Usyk will be impressed. Only one man at HW can move like that.

    Fury clinches his trainer and Usyk ran off to say he's seen enough,

    Switching. Showing front foot. Back foot. Lateral movement

    WAR FURY

    Not much for the body language experts to get excited about. Both men look super relaxed.

    Ever since the Klitschko win, Fury's opponents have tried to be something different in an effort to beat him.

    Wilder came in really heavy for the second fight and tried to box him in the third.

    Whyte came out southpaw.

    And now Usyk looks really heavy.

    Usyk is gonna lose cos he's already having to stretch himself much much further than he has before.
