    But that opens up AJ to even more clean straight lefts to the chin than the first time around, and ones that he's throwing himself chin first into, which is literally a recipe for getting KTFO.

    Investing in body shots is almost always a good idea.
    Usyk has shown a weakness to the body in the past. AJ would need to be careful and set up the shots in good position or he'll get countered.

    Remember when Fury went life and death with Otto Wallin?

    What beating him in a wideish unanimous decision despite heavily cut?

    Also cunnningham supposedly was life and death last time i checked Fury was dancing in his corner at round 5. lol.

    They're obviously going to target the body in this fight.

    Pretty sure Gassiev is a murderous puncher and hits ridiculously hard upstairs and down

    Fury won the fight, clear as day. But to say he wasn't in dire straights against a plus-2200 underdog is laughable.

    Last I checked, Fury also ended up flat on his back against a 'blown up middleweight' in Cunningham - did he not?

    Now, seeing as you've been avoiding McDermott posts like the plague, when are you going to do an RBR for us?

    ...just to be sure Fury would get the nod.

    Show us Usyk's weakness to the body.
    I am not saying you are wrong, but want to see when he evidenced it.

    Everyone is talking about it. You think Usyk himself is not prepared for that ? He will have an answer to anything that AJ can bring.

    But AJ is prepared for Usyks first version, will he able to handle his second version, with new things and new gameplan ?

    Ruiz also had AJ hurt to the body - it was palpable…

    I agree that's the key but I don't think he is weak there, just a tad more vulnerable and Joshua isn't a good body puncher.

    Muhqhhahahaga. Weakness you said? In around 400 matches he was down just 3 time, goes up and fight like nothing happen and won the very same rounds he was down.
    Also 2 of the time he waa down waa due to illegal punches. Beterbiev was warned and taken a point away. The other time was a deflected body shots that land as a low blow.
    And there is a thing called conditioning. And you can condition and improve your body resistance, bit you cant do that to our head, you know???

    Something happen 10+ years ago is absolutely irrelevant.
    And Fury is featherfisted bum that ahould have been DQ against Cunningham.
