    Yeah it'll be depressing to have to see him win that's for sure. Usyk hopefully late stoppage. Fury losing in the 3rd or 4th would suck

    Usyk moving up from Cruiser and even being in this fight, is an achievement in itself.

    I have to somehow get to sleep tonight before this starts in the morning Australian time.

    I can’t remember the last time I was this excited for a fight. Truly well matched fight and a solid cruiser fight

    Nah this ain’t football I don’t support fighters because of where they are born, my love of the sport comes before a fighters nationality. I had an argument in the pub with someone during aj vs usyk 1 when I was only one cheering usyk, I had heard of usyk and become a mini fan when he was in AM’s before I even heard of AJ. I cheered Loma vs Luke Campbell cause I was a fan of Loma and loved his skill. Think I’ve preferred Canelo against every British fighter he’s fought apart from Ryder I wanted a long shot fairytale story etc

    Yes because it also has an irony given usyk is soft to the belly.

    Got that big fight feel, that generational fight feel. Fury wins, he returns to the p4p list, Usyk wins he's the p4p #1, the winner is the best post-Klitschko heavyweight, it is era defining.

    I have a feeling we havn't seen the last of John Fury and he may even jump in the ring and attack Usyk if Tyson is losing - not to protect Tyson but to cause a NC cancellation or simple interruption.
