    No one. Not even Usyk.

    If you aren't quick and throw great uppercuts and fast combinations and are durable, you don't stand a chance.

    Fury could give him a hard fight due to having 9-10 inches in height. But i wouldn't favour Fury. Only takes Fury to have one or two sloppy moments to get caught.

    Tyson wasn't unbeatable but he is a dreadful stylistic match up for anyone in the last decade. Now if Tyson had an off night, i could see Fury or Usyk or even someone else winning. But outside of that? Nah. Forget about it.

    What do you feel are Usyk chances?

    Usyk would have a chance against anyone but outside of that none.

    Not sure how i missed him.:lol: maybe a solid 40%. I’d actually give Fury the better chance as I feel he has a style better suited to deal with Mike.
