    Joshua has no jab and Fury has a piston like jab...that's going to bother Usyk more than Fury's size

    Usyk has a good jab, but Fury's is a lazer. Thats going to be an issue for aure, But i think Usyk will nullify it with his rhythm and being able to get around that jab and land in quick combination.

    When it comes to jabs Fury isn't exactly in the league of Larry Holmes.

    I can see Usyk slipping Fury's flab, I mean jab, and scoring inside with stiff counters.

    Usyk's biggest challenge will be to keep Fury from resting his body on Usyk's shoulders and back.

    Fury can change it up thats Uysks worry.

    Hes not one dimensional, like the other heavyweights.

    Fury won't box with Usyk. Usyk will make Fury look extremely sloppy at range. Fury will try to mow Usyk down and be as dirty and agressive as possible.

    Tbh i don't blame him

    Well his jab and reach due to size I feel are linked. If Fury sits behind his great jab, Usyk is going to spend 9 rounds just trying to do anything and probably failing miserably. 2 great fighters, but this to me looks like an absolute mismatch of styles. Usyk won't win 4 rounds and it'll be boring as hell.

    Fury has demanded $500 million in the next seven days to fight Usyk. Pretty obviously pricing himself out.

    Shh, you're not supposed to acknowledge that Tyson Fury is a beautiful boxer.
