In 32 days the world will have an Undisputed Heavyweight Champion

Fury has been pretty quiet as of late maybe the Ngannou humbling was what he needed. Hopefully we get the best version of both men. I put $200 on Usyk at $2.15 with Sportsbet even though I am a Fury fan those odds were too juicy to give up considering how horrendous Fury looked in his last fight.

 

So Usyk is slightly better than even money Where you placed that bet? He's 6/5 with skybet which is slightly better than evs.

 

Sorry I made a typing error he was $2.25 with Sportsbet in Australia before Fury Ngannou I believe they had him at over $3.50

 

Don't really care who wins I just want to see a barnburner - a BIG DRAMA show! Even a highly technical, albeit skillful affair from both sides would suffice (e.g., Kov-Ward, Canelo-GGG 2).

Definitely a little contested as I wanna see Fury Vs AJ just for cokeheaded Fury to dismantle AJ mentally and for the fight to an absolute drama fuelled barnburner! The other, more respectable side, wants the Honourable gentleman, Usyk to win. I like Usyk, I recognise his qualities and skills but if I'm being honest I find him a little boring to watch sometimes... I want pure technical, boxeo violence.

 

Usyk shouldn't have too much trouble dealing with the slow fat shot Fury I saw vs Ngannou. Will go like the Femi fights and maybe easier.

 

I'm not going to believe this happens until they're facing each other with gloves on and the bell rings. Even then, I expect Ngannou to peel off his Usyk costume and Fury laughing as he was in on the scam from the start.

 

A lot of people have let their emotions get in the way and written off Fury, called him an overrated bum etc.
They could end up very upset. And I'd hate to see that.
There's still time to rethink and be sensible.
Nobody has ever had an easy fight with Fury, so it's unlikely Usyk does.
I think even if Usyk wins, Fury will put up a huge fight and demand respect for the performance.
But Fury should also have a good chance of winning.
It's just a bit of mystery what he has left these days, how much is decline and how much is preparation and how much is that idiot coach of his.

 

Still time for Fury to back out of course!!!!!!!

 

Could be a draw.
So there's still a chance that we don't get one

 

Even if one champion comes out of this it won’t be long before unrealistic mandatory defences result in a split again. But at least we may get a true lineage up and going again. Let’s hope.

 

First and foremost... I want the better man to win - by which I mean I want it clear enough to not be controversial.

Beyond that I have a slight preference for Usyk - his journey as a whole is a more compelling story, and not tainted by PED abuse or long periods of either inactivity or fighting well below the best available... This is as much a mild disdain for Fury's liberating a hostage belt only to hold it hostage himself for a while as it is anything else.

 

As others have said we could end up with a draw, as Lewis/Holyfield 1 showed and if judges could score that and Fury/Wilder 1 a draw then anything could happen, this is boxing.

Even if we do get an undisputed champion chances are they retire and the titles are split again. At least with Lewis we had a few years of having a recognised number 1 heavyweight on the planet.

But then the scrabble for the vacant titles could be fun and see some good match ups.

 

I hope Fury wins and I expect him to win as well. By stoppage.

Probably gonna be an ugly fight though, Fury's gonna dig in a lot of body shots when they're up close in the clinch and Usyk is gonna do a ton of complaining.

 

May the best man win. Usyk's country is at war, here in Britain travellers are treated like vermin.
