    I'm switching to Usyk KO1!:D

    For the record, while it might seem hyperbolic.... I wouldn't rule that out.

    This is encouraging, but nobody ever has a fighter gain without confidence that they can do it. Everyone - everyone - in the sport knows that round 10 of a championship level fight is just different to anything that could be recreated in a laboratory. That can be picked up by monitoring sleep. That reveals itself during training.

    That said, Usyk is so cool and experienced that I can't imagine nervous tension being a problem. Fighting Fury, though, is exhausting and regardless of the control you describe this really, really might not help him.

    You don't put 10 pounds of muscle on an already stocky frame through magical sports science

    You eat chernobly beef for that.

    He is softer obviously, you blind or what??? Your fangirl is a known cheater, so be quiet.
    And Usyk has literally 9 months to training.

    I have no idea if he win or not. I belive he can do it but also understand that Fury with good shape (few month ago I easy choose Usyk because Fury look from years slow af) is very difficult fight.
    I only saying that there is no way that they make some horrible mistake gaining weigh and making Usyk tired quick and being slow.

    I dont belive it.
    As I said. They monitoring him, watching all reaction of his body. If he start will be too slow or start tired quicker they will make difference in diet and make him lighter again.

    They are not idiots. If Usyk weigh in 103 kg looks great and got even better atributes on training camp why dont make change.
    Fury for sure will try many times some wrestling and probably this weight might help not being push around soo easy.

    I don't think Usyk plans to fight more than 6-8 rounds tomorrow. He will be looking to KO Fury from round 1. At least, that's the only logical reason I can think of for him coming in at his career heaviest weight.

    I'm exactly the same. I want it to happen so much I can taste it. ;)

    With a bit of luck I'll be tasting it for real come tomorrow night, squire.

    Thought Fury would be a little lighter. Must be packing a little extra muscle somewhere.

    233 not good for Usyk though as his speed and movement is his main asset. I remember the impact the extra weight had on Parker v Joyce and can almost see the same thing happening with Fury.

    Yeah, if he "goes" it will be late and under pressure. And who knows if Fury even has that in him any more? Even if the worst happens it might just make the fight a tragic mess late.

    Usyk needs to be a little bit heavier than usual, otherwise Fury will bounce him like basketball with each punch.

    Could be total madness. See what Fury has left within I suppose but if Fury can't keep him down...
