    What are Usyks chances against Fury now? After a hard grueling battle, plus 2 knockdowns against Wilder, is Fury ripe for the picking for Usyk? Not sure if Fury is going to fully recover after a war like that.

    He has always been ripe for the picking. A reason why he fights non skilled punchers, Usyk is skilled and one with 15 round stamina and a top chin. He'd Tko Fury late.

    Fury will be jabbing, feinting and smothering (with a lot less success) Usyk unlike Wilder for whom he'd to be extra aggressive to keep him on the backfoot .

    This fight is intriguing but I don't think it'll be very entertaining, from Fury's side at least.

    I don’t think it would be a fight that Fury takes.

    I think Usyk beats Fury comfortably and I think Fury knows it.

    Usyk has the foot speed and hand speed advantages that would be decisive if they fought. He would pressurise Fury relentlessly

    He has a very good chance of beating him and yes he can categorically hurt him too.

    Usyk is a “supreme” boxer, but fury is an extremely good boxer


    Fury has size, reach , and clearly he has power


    so I would lean towards fury to be too much for Usyk

    He won’t come in at 277 if he’s against Usyk.

    I think the better question would be, does Fury have a chance against Usyk, and the answer to that question is.... no.

    There's always a chance. I figure that, no matter how skilled Usyk is, Fury's superior size and weight will be too much for him. Unlike AJ, Fury knows how to use his weight
    But Fury looked very beatable tonight. If it was Joshua or Usyk and not Wilder, Fury might've been in trouble

    Usyk is the only one that can beat Fury.

    USyK proved that to a champion size doesnt matter.
    USyK has already a plan for Fury imo.

    USyK by UD but I wouldnt rule out a win even by KO.

    I think it’s a good fight. Fury knows how to fight. He adjusts, he processes he does what is needed. He will need to take it more seriously than he did tonight

    The overrating of Usyk on this board is outrageous. Specially after the constant shitting on AJ. You wonder how that win just catapulted him to an ATG HW. Pump the ****ing breaks.
