    No but he’s got the footwork, head movement, timing and speed to completely nullify it and school Fury in the jab contest

    I think that Fury has a far better ability to absorb punishment and recuperate than Joshua did and does. His chin ain’t what the fanboys claim, but he bounces up. I don’t think Usyk can stop him without hitting him 1000 times or so with power shots (since usyk showed no real sign of having real power).

    I think we should not underestimate the ability of the big man to mug Usyk if the ref lets him.

    SO, if the ref lets tyson lean, lay, clinch, foul off the clinch and generally mug Usyk, yes, I think he can win.

    And Fury couldn't even drop Chisora in what 30+ rounds. He is feather fisted for his size.

    Yes, Fury brings other things to the table than Joyce and AJ, so that they didn't succeed is no guarantee he won't. Just noting that previous times Usyk was supposed to be outmuscled and walked down it didn't happen.

    I don't think Fury will try and walk Usyk down, though. he's too aware of the dangers of being countered. I think he will stay behind that effective jab and one-two and then try to grab and/or uppercut when Usyk comes close. But I don't think Usyk will be there much either for the uppercut or the grabbing. He will probably come under the jab with a left to Fury's body and then switch to the head and Fury is likely to switch to southpaw at times to get away from that left.

    In the end I think will come down to a boxing match instead of a very physical battle, and I think Fury will find it hard to keep the pace.

    Based on their histories a decision is very probable as is a close controversial decision. I favor Fury slightly IF he is in shape and prepared.

    Yeah, a highly disputed decision is quite likely.

    AN ugly points decision for Fury. Usyk's speed, agility and combinations cause Fury problems but Fury holds. hits, leans and establish his jab to keep the fight at range and land bigger shots. A close ugly fight that Fury gets the win but I bet it's a split or somewhat controversial.

    This is it. Fury wins, proving again that old adage that "a good big man beats a good little man."
