Fury vs Usyk

How do you see this one going?

Technically the two best at Heavyweight (yes I know Usyk hasn’t fought at the weight yet). It’s an intriguing fight, I’d love to see it (don’t see it happening any time soon).

Fury’s size too much for him?

 

Yeah, I think Fury would be just too big. He really knows how to use his size too

 

Yeah I can't see Usyks footwork working too well here. Fury just paws out his left arm and takes a step back as soon as someone makes an advance, can see him doing that all night against Usyk. Would be an intriguing fight though.

 

Distance is Fury's bread and butter. I think he can keep Usyk on the end of a jab for 12 rounds. If Usyk gets inside can he stop Fury? I don't think so. Fury UD.

 

I wouldn't actually like to see this because they're my two favourite heavyweights! Think I'd just about favour Fury due to size and reach.

If there's one boxer in the division that could negate it somehow though it's Usyk.

 

That’s why I favour Fury myself. I do think Usyk can get inside but he isn’t the biggest of punches, I can’t see him stopping Fury. It would be a great contest, not sure on the UD but Fury to edge a majority or a split decision.

 

Don't think anyone can outbox Fury, to beat him you need real power and Usyk wasn't even a puncher at cruiserweight.

 

Fury would outbox him at range and just octopus him up close.

 

Usyk is more talented but this size disparity may be too much, It wont be easy for Fury though.

I would fancy Usyk here.

I would be confident he has the talent and discipline to follow the plan to avoid Fury’s jab and land enough of his own to win a decision over 12 rounds.

Do I think it happens? No because Fury is smart enough to know who to avoid and this is one of those.

I would love Usyk to gain a world title and face the best in the division but it’s going to be tough for him to get the big fights given his skill level, and the fact he isn’t an unknown quantity.

 

The good thing he’s got on his side is that WBO mandatory. Hopefully that can put him in a strong position.

 

I think Fury is a stylistic nightmare for Usyk, who I can surely see as the next big thing at HW, but Fury would be the hardest to overcome.

 

They were planning to build this feather fisted thirty something midget cruiserweight up into a credible opponent for the chinny robot. Now they’d probably DUCK him as well.

Fury would toy with him like a farm cat with a baby shrew.

 

Fury is just too big and he knows how to use his reach advantage. I still don't get the usyk hype personally, he's beat decent guys but nobody that good. Before usyk fans have a meltdown I mean I don't get the hype for him as a heavyweight when he is yet to fight a proper heavyweight. Beating punch bag Joyce in the amateurs doesn't bother me.
