Honest opinions, if possible please. I think Fury wins on points in a very close fight. I'm assuming Fury trains properly and takes it seriously for the sake of this hypothetical match up.
Aj is WAY closer to his physical prime. I hate to admit he might he favourite now But Fury from around the time of the wilder 2 fight or wlad would box his head off Though threre isn't much between Ajs ears, so maybe Fury could box him You see I'm honest with my picks. I don't have an agenda like another loser on here
Fury boxes AJ's dumb bodybuilding nut off Raw power doesn't win fights Plodding no stamina. Fury toys with him.
True, but he dusted those other bums off We Need to see if he actually has the balls to fight a top opponent first Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself, because he is a front running, can crusher
To be honest people are getting so far ahead of themselves It's very clear that both Fury & Usyk are finished with boxing. Both ailing physically. But they both have the ability to get up just for their final dances with one another. They will both retire this year. I bet everything on it....and it's very possible Fury retires right away and if he does then Usyk will follow. Turkey might be blind to it and think his billions of dollars can keep Fury & Usyk around for his perverted party...but it won't. Now people have to process that also. These two men will be getting offered $50m+ dollars to fight...but they will walk away from it. Think about that. That's unprecedented in itself.
AJ easily. He was always all wrong for Fury style wise and will beat any single version of Fury with ease. AJ just nullify absolutely everything Fury brings to the table. AJ has power in both hands and can box on elite level. His jab currently is a huge weapon, much improved and it's a power shot essentially. He also learned the hard way how to open your opponent up, and you can't withstand his shots. The only HW currently that is Knocking legit Iron chinned guys out cold. I can even tells you how the fight will plays out. AJ will go to the body with that right hand, fight from long range, set up the right hand upstair and finish the fight, the moment it's land. It will be similar to Ngannou, but Fury chin is like 100x. worst. There won't be an recovery option for Fury, as he will be out Cold. There ain't boxer with that low guard that will beat AJ. You need high thigh guard to even have a chance to do that. BTW Fury biggest weapon, which he used to wins against Wilder was clinching, holding and leaning. And that just ain't working against AJ. Yeah Fury has nothing on AJ, and that's the reason he is ducking AJ and will never fights him. This is career ending by a huge Out Cold KO!
What did you think of usyk’s clinch game with fury? It didn’t seem like leaning / clinching had much effect
Fury didn't really want to rely on it and usyk was very ready for it which Fury knew he would be. It was a null point really and its a good thing. Proper boxing match it was. He made usyk miss and pay a lot in them mid rounds. I was expecting usyk to slowly unravel then fury get on top of him more but Fury tired and started conserving his energy only for usyk to find himself again in 8 and 9. Then both fighting almost on empty for the final 3 rounds. Fury needs to stay fit and not mess around early in the rematch and it's anyones fight again. Small margins making the difference.
I previously leaned towards Joshua but Fury showed he's still got a bit of his skills left. He can't take any silly risks though because if he gets caught I think that's the end of him. Not only if what's left of his punch resistance gone, but Joshua is a much better finisher than anyone he's been in the ring with barring Usyk (but he hits much harder than Usyk). This might be a fight where Fury clowns Joshua for a few rounds, gets complacent and eats a big right hand, left hook, uppercut. Something that shakes him to his boots. From then on I think Joshua chases him down and finishes him off. But if Fury keeps his cool and fights out of his skin for ten/twelve rounds, feints, angle changes, mixing up shots, roughhousing in clinches and so on then he could take a decision. But Joshua learned from his defeats and is a better fighter than the raw hyper punching robot of the pre-Ruiz days. I suspect he might be more than up to countering Fury's tricks.
Fury's got skills, but Joshua's are often underrated - he's not a natural, but he's pretty solid. Fury's power is mediocre, he's unlikely to be able to knock out Joshua. Joshua's power is legit - Fury recovers well (if you let him), but Joshua finishes well and I don't see Fury surviving one of his combos... Forget the punch that starched Ngannou - Joshua wouldn't commit to anything that risky against Fury. Honestly... 60/40 for AJ, at least, at this point.
