    If (and that's quite a big if) this fight ever happens, who do you see winning?

    I got Fury. A good big man beats a good little man.

    Is Usyk born from his mother? or is he an alien?

    I think I know the answer....Fury can smell an alien from a mile away and he does not want his anus probed.

    I think Fury UD, but definitely wouldn't be surprised if it went the other way

    Usyk is getting a little overhyped on here (not that he doesn't deserve it) and Fury a little underrated

    Size matters and Fury is not Aj

    Gun to head I pick Fury, but Usyk is absolutely brilliant and p4p is arguably the man right now

    Fury. I'm not even convinced the Ukrainian beats Joshua in the rematch to be honest. Got a feeling about it..

    Even though I'm a big fan of Usyk and I believe he is currently P4P #1, Fury roughs him up over the 12 round distance, outworks him and outlands him.

    Usyk deserves the high praise he is getting, but it's getting to the point where it seems like some people believe he's a master boxer who will win by default if he sees the final bell, and that's not the case. Briedis was able to make it a draw on one scorecard, Chisora was able to nick a couple rounds off him off of pure physicality alone, hell even Bellew took a couple rounds off Usyk and Tony Bellend is not 1% the fighter that Tyson Fury is.

    Fury wins via unanimous decision to become the first undisputed heavyweight champion in over 2 decades since Lennox Lewis.

    Difficult and ungrateful to forecast.
    Oleksandr Usyk has never fought a better opponent; Definitely.
    Tyson Fury; did he fight a better opponent? I don't know, but he has experience fighting with Klitschko, and Wilder.
    Ultimately I think Fury would wrap himself like an octopus around Usyk, use his weight to wear down his opponent; Fury has a "nose" for strategy and tactics.
    I think that Fury would beat MD, SD, or UD, it doesn't matter that much. If the strategy and tactics were successful, maybe it would be KO.
    But I wouldn't be surprised if Usyk wins, it's just that the KO option is off.
    55-45 for Tyson Fury.

    When a smart man encounters a smarter man the smart man is dead.

    Usyk wins imo

    It really is a 50/50, but I'm gonna have to lean towards Usyk here. A master southpaw would certainly give Fury trouble, and if Fury turns up out of shape? I'm going Usyk by UD, potentially a 10-12 stoppage.

    Usyk pot-shots the Gypsy Doofus and probably gets inside knocks Fury down for a few 10-8 rounds en route to a UD.

    Fury stops an exhausted Usyk in the latter rounds. Fury knows how to use his size and exactly how to fight as the bigger man,something Joshua failed badly on and allowed Usyk to not only dictate the pace of the fight but how the fight was fought. Usyk in his three fights at Heavyweight (1 fight per year) so far has not once looked exceptional despite his brilliant skills at amateur and Cruserweight.Fury will not as many think use his iq and try to outbox Usyk he will be on him from the first bell mauling/man handling and tying him up landing hard cuffing shots,using his size and weight as often as he can to tire Usyk out and then going for the stoppage. The fight has to happen should Usyk beat Joshua once more and I believe the fight will happen .

    Fury vs Usyk. I'd go with Fury. Usyk doesn't have the knockout power of wilder, so he's definitely not knocking Fury out, probably not even knocking him down. And even though Usyk may be more technically proficient, Fury's size would be too much for him.

    Yeah, i kind of get that feeling too. I still think the odds are in Usyk's favor, but Joshua has demonstrated before that he is capable of changing his gameplan and being successful, like in the Ruiz rematch. Of course, Usyk is leagues above Ruiz, so perhaps that's not the best example. But I do think that with the right strategy Joshua at least has a chance.

    Fury is talking retirement because his body is in decline.

    Uysk fairly easily.

    Usyk would win this. Fury is overrated and would likely lose to Joshua too.
