    Well I think Fury has the power but the thing is his long arms and his body type mean he has to wind up from further out than either Dubois or Joshua, who could dig hard explosive bodyshots from in close and really take the wind out of you. The way Fury throws bodyshots is a bit like the way Foreman used to do it, big windup wrecking ball swings which are obviously slower and thus perhaps easier to brace for than the explosive short shots of the above two, but are more likely to do cumulative damage over the course of a fight if he can keep landing them.

    I don't think it'll be a factor really unless Usyk lets Fury pin him in one place, but it's not something Usyk should ignore either.

    How is Usyk a cheater? When has he thrown blatant elbows, excessively clinched, hit and hold, demanded hometown refs or judges, been busted for PEDs, hit low or behind the head, his an opponent when he's down, hit an opponent after the bell, headbutted or been guilty of fixing fights? I think that's more or less covered the gamut, but maybe there's some other offence you think he's guilty of. In which case what?

    I bet it will be this: “he is vulnerable to the body and he pretends to be hurt by low blows every time a legit body shot is landed on him, Dubois should be champion now”.

    Not a cheater in the ring but ( imho ) a big cheater globally since he tries to sell his image as a pure fighter fighting only for legacy and a big gentleman .

    In fact he misused a sporting event ( fight against dubois ) for a political message of zelensky which is smeary and beyond that he carefully chooses the weakest bums available in hw and fights as little as possible . His and especially his promoter words are always carefully choosen to sell the gentleman image .

    But its just my opinion , he is very welcome to show in future he is different .
