My guess is that, ring rust or not, Usyk will come to the ring in great shape and ready to fight. Fury, on the other hand does not do well with free time. Actually, his free time is caused because he doesn't well in his life. Tyson, must likely won't come in to the fight in his version of the best shape possible. That would be a real mistake against Usyk.
Pointless thread. There's probably no point to any Tyson Fury threads these days until he's in the ring and the bell is about to sound. Will he do this? What if ... ? He said something ... Apparently he's possibly going to do this, maybe ... Look what he's wearing today ... When he's got a fight signed and it's near on 100% sure to go ahead, bring on some thoughts and comments then.
Yeah I definitely think Dubois is a better finisher than Joshua at this stage. Usyk wasn't too impressive vs Xhisora or Chazz Witherspoon.
Yes, the way he finished vs Joe Joyce was very impressive. Or who could forget his epic comeback vs Kevin Lerena. Why, one day he could have a win in the top 40 I reckon
Well put it this way I know lads who were there when he knocked Joshua out in sparring with big gloves on. Who were Joshua's big finishes in his last 6 fights? Franklin, Ruiz, Usyk. When Dubois smells blood he pours it on.
Been in fought 21 times compitively I know how this game works. Usyk's in with a bigger younger fighter who he has very little chance of knocking out but can KO him at any point. It won't be easy.
what interested me in your message you said you think he has very little chance of knocking dubois out do you reckon thats right mate because dubois looked like he could be knocked out by usyk to me we will see your post made me think twice do you think it will be a good one
He fought Wilder after 1 fight in 4 years. Bet he's doing a lot better than you in life. Still looks in good shape to me.
Just my opinion but yes I do think there's little chance of an Usyk KO win. Lerena dropped Dubois but he looked like a banger to me, not a good finisher but a good banger, bit like Danny Garcia. He was no mug anyway and it was impressive way Dubois finished him although if Lerena had emptied the tank think he would have stopped Dubois.
I agree with Usyk being ready but Fury himself would train very hard as we have seen him do it time again plus he would realize just how important this fight is & means in it's significance probably another reason he isn't rushing into even more so now he would rather shake some rust off & secure a rematch clause in negotiations for extra insurance, Him & his father talk a lot but they've known for quite sometime just how good Usyk is & their self doubt has only grown by time.
Perhaps in some way if Usyk can pummel in continuous combinations i could see him getting a TKO but not so much a KO.
Possible mate I did pick Usyk to KO Bellew but at heavyweight I'm not convinced in his power at heavyweight.
