Usyk/Fury 2 Face off

I do love Usyk's respectful head shake when he's asked if the uppercuts hurt him.

 

I know that, but I was stating my opinion on these excuses.

 

Well and good!

 

That's just your opinion tbh. Maybe Fury was just overconfident at the start and it backfired.

 

everyone has a plan, until Jake Paul punches them in the face.

 

Damn I have to say Usyk looks ice cold
He always does, but he seems even cooler than usual

I'm not usually one to read too much into body language, but that guy is extremely confident. He's watched the fight back many times and Has found something he didn't know on the night

I want to pick Fury, but it's hard to pick against an undefeated fighter with that demeanour

Just a few weeks to go, roll on

 

I mean, its more than an opinion. For one thing, he was NOT overconfident.

Both have rewatched the fight a million times and I’m sure both will come with educated adjustments and traps

 

That's a great segment. I have huge admiration for both of these guys, which seems rare in here. Their differences in size, style and personality makes for a great matchup and this was borne out in fight 1 - a ripper.

The one thing i hope doesn't happen is Tyson aging out suddenly, mainly durability wise. He should be right as he came back after being hurt and fought OK thereafter. I'd hate to see him shockingly stopped in 5 or 6 rounds tho. There's been concerns for him for years now however and he always puts them to bed.

Here's to another great fight.

 

When they showed round 6 and Fury straight away says "check out the two uppercuts I land this round", then he says "boom" when the video shows the uppercut he landed on Usyk. This shows Fury has studied the tape. Which is a positive sign, hopefully Fury learned something from studying the tape of the first fight.

 

The showboating indicates otherwise. Usyk starting slower and lulling his opponents into a false sense of security, like his fight against Bellew.

The video also doesn't prove much other than that Fury can't rattle Usyk mentally.

So it essentially boils down to opinion (on both our part). Similar to the one you hold that Fury would pull out of both fights.

 

Again, the showboating was a built-in excuse, and does not show otherwise. He said before the fight that Usyk would be the best fighter he ever faced. He was not overconfident--the showboating was built-in excuse.

 

Which is your opinion. Not fact.

 

It's more than an opinion. It fits his inconsistent behavior and his subsequent citing "having fun" as the reason he lost. It may not be a "fact," but its a good scientific model.
