Why Fury will beat Usyk

This is another fight about who has more in the tank

Gap closed up post 2020 with Fury's elbow surgeries taking away his jab but nobody has pressed Usyk in the way Fury can physically mentally and sexually. Close decision.

 

In the words of the late great Brendan ingle to beat Tyson fury you have to nail him to the canvas and barring that you arn't going to win

 

I've always favoured Fury in this match up and I still do despite his recent poor performance. I've written Fury off too many times and been proven wrong to bet against him now. But I think it will be more competitive than I initially thought. If anything with Fury looking so poor, I'm more interested in this fight now as I am less certain about the result.

 

Good video and I fully agree, I feel like Fury’s size and unorthodox style will ultimately be Usyk’s undoing. It’s a great fight and I think it will be highly competitive, I just think Fury will once again pull it out the bag.

 

It doesn't feel like this fight is happening a month from now.

For a fight this big there's been very little promotion. There's been no insight into Furys camp. No promotional features or anything. Face-offs.
His social media presence is non-existent.
He's obviously training hard. How hard is he training. How's he looking?? Unknown....

 

usyk will regret moving up to heavyweight

 

He struggled against Wallin, whom Joshua retired in 5.

Usyk clowned Joshua twice.

 

Having watched the video and read the posts in this thread, bet companies are probably happy that people are favoring the wrong fighter.

 

I personally think, the fight will be 3 rounds a piece at the halfway mark, then Fury will start gassing nd Usyk will pull away and win a 116-112 type decision.

Fury has a good gas tank compared to the lumps he's been fighting, he is always visibly tired after round 7-8, it's just that his opponents are even more fatigued making you think he's not gassing out.

Usyk's gas tank will make Fury look amateourish

 

If Fury really wants to utilise his size to wear Usyk down, he has to walk him down like he did for example Cunningham and Wilder and tried to with Wallin. But that will put him in line with Usyk's counters and the question is also if he even will find Usyk, who has some of the best movement the HW division has ever seen.

Option number two is to stay behind his long jab and try to catch Usyk when he comes in, like he did very successfully against for example Whyte, but that kind of tactic didn't work well against the quicker Cunningham.

So whatever he chooses it's fraught with risk imo.

I think Usyk takes this, but have been wrong before.

 

Fury fights like a big man, unlike AJ. He will make it an ugly affair

 

I think this comes down to Fury's kronk-style switch is bad against Usyk. Fury looks slower and more ponderous than before and I don't think trying to load up against a guy like Usyk will work out well. I liked Fury more when he was light, twitchy and utilised his massive length. Now he looks like all he wants to do is lumber in after potshotting and lean on a dude. I don't like the speed loss in Fury's game and I do fancy Usyk's lateral footwork against a big ogre. I think Usyk will handle the size difference better than people expect and that he also hits harder, when he sits down on his punches, than people expect. I'll take Usyk on points.

 

I'm going with fury to stop him on rounds five to six.

Will wait though to see what he looks like when the first bell rings first thought after the last outing lol cus he looked shot to ****

 

Brave - backing a notoriously light puncher to stop a robust fighter.

Stranger things have happened... But if there's one bet I'd make on this fight, it'd be that it goes the distance.

I guess we'll see.

 

I do suspect Fury will try and come in as light as possible, though, probably in the 250's. He's going to have a big size advantage in any case, so he should go for speed.
