    That's your opinion and I respect it, doesn't mean I agree with it, like you disagree with how I scored it, but that's boxing for you.

    And there lies the problem with boxing, Usyk could have very well been robbed and people would shrug it off as just boxing.

    It works both ways fella.
    As the late great Angelo Dundee once said.
    Controversy, it's dynamite I love it, people want to see some more.

    Nah, not having it. A fighter shouldn't lose a perfect record just for the show and the drama of it.

    I think Usyk got Tyson number now. He already knew that he can knock him out what almost happend in first fight and he know he got better engine. He probably should forced tempo even more.
    I predict Usyk win on points in reality but I'm also little worried because trilogy plan. Hope they dont try give Fury present for christmas and give him decision this time.
    But for sure Fury will try win this and he got his chance. If Fury win I think more about TKO after some great shoot which change everything. Dont see Fury outboxed Usyk fair way.

    To be honest Im not soo much excited in second fight. For me this fight change absolutly nothing. History was made in first time. Usyk done something crazy back then. He dont have to prove nothing more. Even if he lose this he still will be hero and one of the greatest boxer.
    Its only chance for Fury to save his reputation. If he win he would not be even 100% number 1 because with Usyk its still be 1-1 and Usyk done much, much, much more in boxing than Tyson.

    Before first fight emotion was on highest level. Now I still wait to start feel this excite and can happend that it never comes.

    Usyk by a comfortable UD with a stoppage coming as no surprise. Usyks training has been machine like and he's not as aged as people want to think. This is a beat down from round 7/8 onwards maybe the ref saves Fury from annihilation late on.

    I would love to see fury win this one, but that is gonna be a huge task.

    Fury goes backwards usyk presses, trying to counter usyk that way is very hard cause usyk got great lateral movement and reflexes.
    Fury goes forwards and usyk just counter punch him and moves away, leaning and grabbing also didnt work against usyk in the first fight.

    What Fury should do is take control of the center of the ring, don't go backwards but also dont press him too much the first half of the fight.
    He should use his long reach, find his range in the first couple rounds, jab him, body shots/uppercuts, stand his ground (hes a giant for godsake use it)
    Blind him with the jab and counter with uppercuts/straight right, switch to southpaw sometimes (yes fury can fight southpaw) to confuse usyk.
    Cut the ring off, usyk doesn't like to be against the rope and then maul him like he did against wilder 2

    Other than that i just don't see how fury can win, perhaps a lucky punch.
    If he goes for the kill straight away usyk will catch him and possibly stop him later.

    I am rooting for fury, but i think usyk is too good.

    UD: Usyk.

    I try not to do the armchair psychiatrist stuff but Fury looks like he's on the verge of a full blown mental breakdown. Looks a shell of his former self, doesn't bode well for him

    If anything he looks mean and focused to me. Gonna be interesting to see how it translates on the night, he's got nothing to lose.

    Usyk for sure. He cracked Fury the 1st fight, in the 2nd fight he'll shatter Fury and smash his overrated legacy to pieces...
