Would Usyk do the same thing to Fury?

    To compare Fury's ring IQ with AJ's ring AQ is like... I dont know, like to compare AJ's IQ with Charlie Zelenoff's ring IQ.

    Fury would never throw a 10cm reach advantage away because he has no ****ing clue about how to use it. NEVER.

    Fury can adapt on the fly. He also posses the unique ability to fight like a big man at 275 lbs. Usyk will have his hands full against Fury

    By probably do you mean definitely? And by superior do you mean daddy?

    I'm actually devastated that AJ & Hearn let a little fat man and a cruiserweight ruin Fury's AJ beatdown party.

    The question is could he do it to a master boxer like Wilder?

    Genuinely hoping Fury gets KO'd so Usyk gets an easy belt in Wilder

    Very well said, Joshua is a pussycat, Fury is a lion.

    Fury is the only one i favor to beat usyk. Skillful and big plus can fight like a dog. AJ could've drag usyk into a war but was getting stiff everytime usyk catches him clean

    Fury wouldn't block punches with his face like Joshua did.

    Usyk himself said Fury would be the absolutely hardest fight out there for him.

    Totally agree, it is an absolute joke to compare Joshua's ring IQ's to Charlie Zelenoff's, the man is 331-0 at the moment, nothing comes close to him

    I don’t think so. I think it would be a different type of fight, Joshua got drawn into Usyk’s fight. Fury is too smart for that.

    Would love to see Fury vs Usyk though.

    I think Fury would bully and manhandle him to a KO like he did with Cunningham.

    No, because Fury knows how to physically manhandle opponents who can out speed him. Even early on like vs Cunningham, he switched it up and started using his size to manhandle and stop Cunningham and Fury has only gotten better at this since then and under Sugar Hill learning the Kronk method he'll master the techniques that big heavies used to control smaller, faster ones.

    Fury does a lot of things Joshua doesn't. Simply posting with the lead hand, extending it out will prevent Usyk, darting in to throw the lead left straight which worked so well vs Joshua. If Usyk tries to come inside the extended left, he gets collar tied, if he steps outside, he gets the forearm to the throat or chest, he will get manhandled and so will not be able to get into positions to land punches like he did vs Joshua.

    Then you throw in Fury's head movement, which AJ lacks and you can see why Fury is a much tougher proposition.

    By probably, I mean "absolutely, positively, and definitely." And, by superior, I mean "Father, Uncle, and schoolyard Bully".

    So...to answer your question...yes. :thumbsup:
