    He's sparring Paint Dry Parker. I guess it's something but he's nothing like Usyk.

    Someone quick with a similar style of boxing. Both should get ready to attack and defend bodyshots.

    Surely he does not need to spar anyone as he is facing a "Middleweight"

    Who can he spar though ? it's not like there's been many elite Southpaws in Heavyweight history especially with Usyk's skill set. I guess Luis Ortiz would be the best opponent he could spar as Ortiz is a skillful Southpaw.

    He’s building the fight, don’t be so naive to get taken in by it all.

    It’s a very good question - stylistically Usyk is fairly unique as is Fury.

    Perhaps the opponent Usyk struggled the most against - Breidis.

    Mairis Briedis and Krzysztof Glowacki. Really though he doesn't need to do any sparring for this one. Sparring his brother Tommy Fury might be a good idea.

    Jalolov would be a great sparring partner. He's a southpaw with good movement.

    Wallin ain't bad either.

    That is the only option here. Not only is he a decently paced southpaw but he is the one other cruiser besides Usyk that has beat Briedis
