    Usyk is most skilled, not even close. It would a one sided fight, Fury doesnt have the power to trouble Usyk either.

    This is are ally good question, I can't vote on this as I think it's a bit tight.I can't
    See one better than the other on a given day, I guess Usyk has the speed but Fury has the reach
    Which comes in pretty fast in the Wilder fight.... Hmmm tough one for me, if they were more physically matched maybe Usyk ?
    Both have good footwork ,both set traps ??

    Usyk is more skilled and he’s about to fight guys who have a size advantage at HW so he’d better be mire skilled. Fury is a freak of nature and moves incredibly well for a very large man. He is also super slick and has freakish long arms. Fury also showed he can take a monster shot and not be stopped.

    I’m a fan of both guys but suspect a fight between the two would be a stinker.

    Well Usyk has not only obviously stepped up to CW Level and passed the CW Level test with flying colours, but he's actually 16-0 at CW Level and he even passed with flying colours when he stepped down to HW Level (SHW in the ams) when he fought in the WSB and in sparring against Wlad in preparation for the Fury fight, whereas when The Gypsy King stepped up to CW Level he was dropped heavily and went life and death against a non puncher who is named after a battleship and he had to go all Andre Ward on him to get the job done. Usyk never came close to going down despite him having faced more savage punching KO artists and legit bangers in his last 7 fights than any fighter in the sport and they were all CW Level as well.

    And Usyk didn't even take up boxing until he was 15 y/o , whereas The Gypsy King was still a fetus when he first donned a pair of gloves and he medalled at all the major Fetus tournaments: World Amateur Fetus Championship, The Fetus Olympics etc.

    Don't get me wrong, The Gypsy King is super talented too and he is slicker than a gypsy eel on a oil spill- we all saw what the inactive 40% drug-ravaged muscle atrophied suicidal shot shell of him did to America's best fighter of the last decade. But I'm afraid Usyk wins this one rather handily and that's coming from a fellow real fighting man (ie. a Gypsy) who was born and raised on one of the toughest caravan sites in the UK.

    Usyk is more skilled, but Fury would batter him if they ever fought.

    Usyk to small for Fury if thay face each other i'd bet Fury all day long.
    Saying this Usyk has skills but Fury is just to big & would wear Usyk down.

    USYK is a top 3 p4p fighter in the world. But Fury is great too and much bigger.

    Did you watch the same fight? Usyk gave rounds to Bellew, he didn't struggle. He figured him out, wore him down with body shots and stopped him.
    Also the Klitschko Fury schooled was far from the best Klitschko we've ever seen.

    And by the way Bellew is far from Usyk's best scalp and against 2 of his top 3 wins he didn't lose a round.

    Fury has the better jab, footwork, balance, ring generalship, swag. Usyk has the better defense, but he just looks too stiff for my liking.
