    Fury is going to try and lean on Usyk like he did Wilder. Wilder needs distance to be powerful, Usyk doesnt.

    Should be interesting

    I think if Fury wins it will be sooner but something tells me this will be another classic

    If Fury tries to smother and maul Usyk I think Fury will get constantly clipped and badly. Usyk simply won’t be there to get smothered, there’s no way will Usyk stand his ground, give up 60 pounds and get smothered by Fury.

    If Fury tries to avoid clinching, put’s the pressure on intelligently, moving forward whilst throwing and keeping his guard up, Fury will stop Usyk mid to late rounds.

    It's up to Fury how this fight will play out but I see Fury winning by KO.

    It seems like Fury didn't put in the necessary gym work to win, or maybe he couldn't put in the necessary gym work to win. At any rate, he appears to not be in fighting shape in a fight where that really matters. I suspect Usyk will box well enough to stay out of trouble, then the wheels will fall off Fury's wagon in the late rounds. I'm not anticipating a thrilling contest.

    It's all mind games. Fury is about 265 and is going to box usyk like he outboxed Wlad, but fury lost so much of his prime that he can't replicate that. Usyk bty late ko

    I’ll be very surprised if that was the case. Feels to me that he has a specific game plan in mind and that’s what he wants to execute. Whether it works or not remains to be seen.

    I didn’t expect it to go 12 rounds either. Expected Fury to score a KO.
    Usyk is truly unbelievable. No one can give jack**** excuses for that version of Fury. Fury came beyond serious, composed, and with an iron will to win.
