What Can Fury Do, That Joshua Wasn't Able To Do, To Usyk?

- Tyson Fury has and AJ doesn't have a herky-jerky style
- Tyson Fury has a higher ring IQ than AJ
- Tyson Fury has more skill than AJ
- Tyson Fury has more heart than AJ

 

Joshua took almost 2.5x as many shots against Whyte as Fury did according to Compubox and I don't think Whyte landed a significant headshot on Fury. Whyte won 2 rounds against Joshua according to Boxrec and Eyeonthering, zero against Fury.

Wlad did a lot more damage to Joshua, landed about 2x as many shots per round as he did on Fury, almost KO'd him with a single punch, had him in serious trouble for several rounds and was 17 months older at 41.

Joshua was sailing a lot closer to the wind in those fights, which caught up with him when Ruiz KO'd him.

Joshua did better against Kevin, Wallin and Ngannou but it bears mentioning that against four of their five mutual opponents, Joshua fought them after Fury. This doesn't just mean increased age/wear, it means that Joshua went in with more information (Wallin sparring partner, Ngannou 10 boxing rounds of to study), not underestimating these opponents and with the intention to make a statement given Fury's prior result. This pattern will be reversed in Fury's favour against Usyk.

 

?? I never said this in my post, you changed the quote field or you meant to reply to someone else.

 

Fury is much more skilled as a boxer in terms of movement, creating angles and using feints. Physically, he's bigger and longer and uses that reach well.

Joshua hits harder, but as always against a skillful opponent the No. 1 objective is to hit them at all. That was AJ's greatest problem, although overall I thought he fought as well as he could.

The other thing here that people want to overlook is that Joshua fought a younger version of Usyk. Guy is now 37 and relies on his legs; it's possible this fight is not competitive.

 

Some valid points there in regards to Joshua studying Fury v Ngannou and now Fury studying both fights Joshua had with Usyk. There is a clip on YouTube highlighting how Ngannou fought against Fury and it shows Joshua exploiting certain things that Fury was not aware of pre fight (should really have picked up on during the fight) and tbf Joshua followed that game plan spot on .

 

Better footwork
Better ring iq
Switch hitter

If Fury wins theres gonna be alot of salty ass people around here

 

I think there will be a few meltdowns on here after the fight whichever fighter gets his hand raised,it could well be Golden on here for a few weeks off the back of this Undisputed fight .

 

I think the difference is he can be awkward, make it ugly, clinch, lean on and try to nick a scrappy win bit like he did against wlad.

Hes not stronger than AJ, chins probably weaker and he hasnt got AJs power but he does have more stamina better defence and is capable of "old manning" his way through unlike AJ.

 

Ngannou beat Fury, end of story.

 

Fury doesn't mind using his size to bully and wear down smaller men for starters. He will also get down and dirty and won't play nice like AJ. If fury is on his A game I'd pick him to beat usyk everyday of the week but he runs too hot and cold whereas usyk is way more consistent. That's what makes this such an interesting match up. Which fury is gonna show up?

Anyone know the ring walk times for this fight in America?

 

Fury seems best buds with Turki?

 

He's far better at fighting smaller guys, knows how to cut them of and when things are looking bad for him he can rise to the occasion which is the same mentality guys like Sugar Ray Leonard had.

 

HERE WE GO WITH THE EXCUSES

37 year old cruiser!

"He's an older version that the one AJ fought"

Well Wlad was 41 when AJ fought him and 39 when Fury faced him. Hell, if Joshua ever fights Wilder, Wilder was what 34 when Fury first faced him and he'll be about 45 when Joshua does

 

He didn't
