    Controlling the range with the right cross.

    If Fury comes in at peak physical condition akin to the Wilder 2 contest, I can’t see Usyk’s power being much of a factor at all, in the second Wilder fight Fury took Wilder’s best and barely flinched.

    Chasing Usyk will only make Fury miss, waste energy and look lumbersome.

    Fury can greatly diminish Usyk’s attributes by controlling centre ring, making Usyk come to him, peppering Usyk at range by using his height and reach. That should force Usyk’s hand to try and get on the inside, in which case he’ll either get tied up and mauled, hit with a powerful uppercut or short right hook. Rinse and repeat until he can catch Usyk flush coming in, then Fury can pour it on.

    It shouldn’t go past 8-9 rounds with a Fury KO victory, assuming no major cuts or illegal shots take place.

    Fury knows he can't chase Usyk early...hence why he's come slim.

    The adaptive qualities of Fury are so underrated.

    That all can be blunted easily if Usyk, Ali shuffles, then goes into moonwalking the perimeter of the ring, doing the Cornel stop at every corner. Easy work for Usyk after that. LOL

    Assuming Usyk doesn’t do a backflip over the top rope.
