Tough one to call, form has to have Usyk favourite.

The Fury fights must have damaged Wilder.

Also Wilder is not a great boxer

But of course Wilder has that power, in one way it's more likely to land because he is wild and unorthodox

Usyk is a much smaller guy, I can't see him being able to soak up a wilder bomb like Fury.

If Usyk can avoid that one power shot. He wins every round.
But Wilder can knock pretty much anyone out with one punch.
I pick Usyk, but I would have to put some money on Wilder by knockout

As much as I admire Usyk … Wilder is a very dangerous fight to take.

I see Usyk having to comeback from a knockdown to win the fight.

Wilder absolutely made to look like the pile of shite he is.

Usyk by stoppage without taking a decent shot.

Could be a super dull fight.

Wilder waiting all night to land the big right hand and throwing nothing..
Usyk being careful and doing just enough to win the rounds...

Usyk would wear him down and stop him quite easily. Its all one shots from Wilder that Usyk would see a mile off and walking Wilder onto the counters as long as he was swinging.

I'd heavily favour Usyk, I think he would bamboozle Wilder

But never fully count Wilder out, only takes one hit

Usyks some job to hit clean though

Wilder is useless.

Usyk breaks him down steadily, but ruthlessly.

Usyk TKO 9

He wants to show, that he is a bigger figure out there, while he's clearly not. In any case, it was strange first to call out Fury and to claim an injury in the same time, after what to go for the other opponent.

Usyk stated clearly he won't be out again until early 2023 - Fury wants December 2022. So that means Fury won't be out again until summer 2023.

Usyk just wants to stay on his schedule and not be hanging around waiting for Fury; which in all fairness could drag on until winter 2023 if he goes on one of his retirement episodes again.

Good call by Usyk to show he has options outside of Fury.

You must have a remarkably low opinion of Tyson. You had "abysmal" Wilder to knock him clean out.

Probably cos Fury can be sloppy defensively, which was evident in the number of times Wilder dropped him over their fights. But I’ve always said Wilder is garbage, take away his big right hand and he’s got absolutely fvck all.

There is a very good interview with Usyk up on YouTube with English subtitles.

Wilder. Made a huge mistake bulking up. The extra bulk has slowed him down.

He will struggle to catch Usyk and then of course he took a lot of damage in the Fury fights.

Wilder's power is ridiculously overrated. Who has he KOd? Usyk would make easy work of him.

I'll go against the grain and say Usyk embarrasses Wilder until the Bronze Dosser lands one of the shots that put Fury down. We've all seen that Usyk has a great chin, but people play down Wilder's power now. Pure retard strength, and a self belief that AJ can't match.

Wilder KO.
