    Potentially yeah, but it depends what Fury comes in. If you're talking Wilder III Fury, then possibly this could happen, but that was a poorly prepared Fury. Although an interesting insight, I believe the Cunningham cruiserweight bit isn't a worthy argument., it was 10 years ago! Plus Tyson is that much of an enigma, I don't think we can really predict how the fight will turn out, and Usyk is such a slick cat. That's why this fight has to happen!

    Fury fought Cunningham in 2013. That's over 10 years ago and Fury beat him inside 7 rounds ;)

    Fury actually sang Usyk a song earlier today "Touch me in the morning. Then just walk away. We don't have tomorrow. But we had yesterday."
    It's a song about strategy and how they'll never fight each other.

    That actually is the strategy.

    Usyk is a master boxer who will make Fury look very ordinary, clumsy, and clueless.

    On the Netflix documentary you can see Fury rallying AJ to go to Usyks body. They know what to do. Fury wil smash Usyk right in the bellybutton.

    It sounds like Holyfield or Haye vs Valuev.

    We do know for a fact that a slick, quick, light CW-turned-HW was, by his own admission, Fury's toughest fight of his life. Just imagine if Cunningham, who is not a poor man's but a homeless man's Usyk was comprehensively beating a lighter, faster, nimbler, more mobile and literally ten years younger Fury, what will Usyk do to him. Fury admitted that "everything I could do he [Cunningham] could do better". In what universe is it not as good as a confession how much he fears Usyk?

    Usyk has been fighting taller and heavier guys ever since his amateur days. Beating taller, rangy guys is his bread and butter and seemingly the bigger the size and reach difference the better he fares. That's why he is a stylistic nightmare for Fury. Guys that historically proven to cause problems to Usyk are nothing like Fury: smaller guys who are busy in close range like Briedis or Beterbiev. Out of the current crop of heavies, Ruiz would be the most likely candidate to cause problems to Usyk.

    Fury - not at all, especially this fat, declined version of the ogre. Usyk beat Klitschko pillar to post already as a CW. He schooled Joyce, Fa or Modugno, he comprehensively beat Joshua and Dubois - all bigger, heavier, rangier guys. And no, don't give me the "Fury is no Joyce, Fa, Modugno, Joshua, Dubois" BS. I'm talking about a pattern here. Usyk has historically excellent track record against big, tall, heavy, rangy guys. He eats them for breakfast. On the other hand, the two guys who caused massive problems to Fury are Cunningham and Wallin - and Usyk, as a smaller, lighter, fast moving southpaw, is like the worst possible combination of those two for Fury.

    Every post you make is just digging an ever deeper hole for when Fury does club Usyk. It will be "he aged Usyk out" when he is only 18 months younger and has damaged his body year after year with "being a fat ogre" as you put it. Usyk just got knocked out by Dubois and you think he will beat Fury. He has little chance of doing that. The excuses will be so funny.

    I'm not even sure this is necessarily true...

    AJ has the better resume, beat a much less gunshy Wlad and Pov was a level or two above Wilder even at that stage - and actually on a technical level he looked surprisingly decent against Usyk. Yes, he got outpointed, but not an embarrassing shutout - the old aggression may not have shown, but that doesn't mean there's nothing to credit.

    I'm not at all sure Fury's going to do any better.

    So far the excuses are only coming from your camp, mate. Middleweight this, midget that, rabbit this, gappy teeth that, Usyk draws s***, yada yada - and still no fight.

    Bring it on already. F*** the Chisora trilogy, f*** the Ngannou BS, f*** the rumour about Fury now wanting to fight Joshua after Ngannou. Why doesn't the ogre put his money where his mouth is? Let's see it then. I can't wait to see it happen because I'm confident that all you Furyettes will be just shocked when Usyk batters saggy tits pillar to post. You'll all be like "something was wrong, that was not the usual Fury, it must be his men'al 'elf again" after Usyk beats him into retirement.

    Which of course it isn't. Fanciful can be amusing though ;)

    You are one of most angry internet users I think I have seen. Every post is anger. After Fury whoops Usyk, you may have heart attack.

    So no reply of any substance whatsoever. Typical but not unexpected. Not unlike your disappearance from the forum after Usyk cleans the division from the coward ogre.
