I mean the weight difference is an issue here a huge issue but how does this go? Or is Fury, Whyte etc just to big for Usyk
Usyk has said himself Fury will be his toughest fight. I think the height, weight and reach advantage is too much here. Fury will be almost impossible to nail and he'll throw Usyk around like a rag doll and pepper him with jabs from across the ring. Usyk ain't too hard to hit.
I really like Usyk but think Fury would just be too big. Then again, if anyone can solve the Fury puzzle it's probably Usyk. Would be a fascinating tactical matchup, not sure it would make for great viewing though. Think AJ vs Usyk or Wilder vs Usyk would be a far better spectacle.
Usyk will have Fury punching air. I just cant see Fury doing well when he finally come across a superior technical boxer. Usyk too slick, quick and I think Usyk will prove to be the harder puncher of the two.
Think Fury beats him. I think Usyk would beat Whyte. Both a similar height. Whyte obviously much heavier and physically stronger but his footwork is average and they both have the same reach. I just think with Usyks superior speed and skillset he would beat Whyte. If it got into a dog fight Whyte would win but I dont think he has the footwork or defence to get in close without being hit crisp more often than not, so he wouldnt get the dog fight he needs.
I said many times in the past that “Usyk beats them all”. After that last night I’d have to put Fury as the favourite, the strength and reach paired with his awkwardness and his new found front foot approach could be too much.
It would be an absolute massacre and should not be even thought about happening. Swat and flys come to mind...
My thoughts exactly. Usyk literally unproven at world level heavyweight, never mind elite level but mitch reckons he'll beat Fury and punch harder than him. Forget the ridiculous height, weight and reach advantages. Poor chap is seething.
Some people are odd. People get so emotionally invested, obviously people have their favourites but surely it's a case of credit where it's due - whether that's Fury beating Wilder or AJ beating Ruiz in the rematch - regardless whether the fighters are your favourites or not We all enjoy the sport but it seems that some are determined to detract from the achievements of boxers. I don't really get it, we're all boxing fans but literally nothing we say or do can influence the results of the fights. Just enjoy the spectacle.
