    I can't see any scenario in which Usyk stops Fury.

    Unlikely but not impossible. Age plays a factor on both ends, and Tyson's been downed by small lefties like Cunningham. He has great recovery but realistically one should've need to find himself in need of that so often. Usyk is not a puncher but has good output & stamina as well as great timing & accuracy, and if not a clean KO, a ref stoppage late can easily happen. Course he might get stopped but so far he's never even been down.

    I think Fury might be simply too big for Usyk. Joshua is big. But Fury is significantly bigger.

    Can't make an educated guesstimate. Fury's current condition is known. He could be in the shape of his life , he could be shot to bits.
    Even the best version of Fury vs Usyk is a 50-50 fight. I can't envision how the fight is going to go. Leaning Usyk

    Fury is going to be in the best shape of hia life. Stop with the excuses and nonsenses. He already had 12 week camp, which was for Ngannou but Fuey actually prepared for Usyk and everyone with a brain knows that. He will be on back to back camps and in the best shape of his life. Sadly for him on the other side won't be Chisora, Wallin or Ngannou.
    Usyk by TKO around round 10 or 11.

    Nah its a bad one.

    The question should be why the **** was he hard sparring with no head guards 2 weeks away from the fight.

    He really is a 6ft 9" bellend....

    As has already been mentioned, why the hard sparring this close to the fight?, and ytf wasn't he wearing head gear.

    To be fair he had a head guard on and it wasn't "hard" sparring. Caught by an elbow under the head guard.

    The best version of Fury would struggle with Usyk. Whatever ball of lard that turns up will need referee and judge support to have any chance.
