Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk | PPV - 18 May 2024

[The Gratest]

So what was all the 70/30 split about then?

[Nightmare Roy]

So, he’s signed to fight himself?

Is Fury going to earn more taking on Ngannou in an exhibition than he would boxing Uysk in Saudi Arabia? I doubt it very much.

Maybe Fury isn't money motivated... Anyway, that's beside the point, who has he signed to fight?

He's clearly motivated by making as much money as he can for as little risk as he can get away with, clear as day light.

[Coco]

Ui think Magregor was PBFs biggest payday

Certainly bigger than when he fought Canelo

Jake Paul is already earning more than most world champs could dream of.

Pac no doubt.

He got $300m vs McGregor and a paltry $250 vs PAC

To be fair, he does give it all away to charity.

The upkeep on the VW Passat is horrendous to be honest. Please allow him some sway on that. The rest is charity tho.
70/30
Half a billy

So boring now

And I loved the guy. (For his boxing obvs).

[margaret thatcher]

[Ruthless-RKO]

Anyone feel different about this now

Usyk looked a bit bothered at times, and some people are (wrongly) calling that body shot legal, so im sure plenty are leaning stronger to Fury. I thought usyk would do it easier than he did so i guess im slightly more fury now than i was 2 hours ago, but not really, wet ring effect is a huge question mark....

it still comes down to a really really weird style matchup up problem which i cant decide, For one i dont even know what stance fury will fight in....

Once again the narative of usyk not liking body shots, (probably true), but i dont think furys body shots are that bad, he can club some in from range but dosent whip em in up close amazingly.

[deadpan]

Fury still won’t fancy it. He’ll say that Dubois beat him and that shows how he doesn’t deserve to share a ring with the declining Gypsy King.

Very very accurate prediction.

Fury : DDD stopped the middle weight, Joyce stopped DDD, Zhang stopped Joyce, so ill fight zhang.

100%
I think you could use that in a direct quote.

Now even more sure, that Fury wins.

[MasterG]

On the performance last night I think Fury wins. Saying that maybe it was a off night with Usyk. Maybe wet ring was a factor too. Dub only went to the body once more after the low blow prior to the stoppage and I think if he went to the ribs he might have have a bit of success. For me if Fury gets those dogs in I think he can stop him.

[Oiky]

I rate Usyk very, very highly, he is a very skilled and slick fighter, putting opponents in awkward positions they aren't comfortable throwing from and going to work on them

But let's have it right it's mad to assume he would handily beat Fury and judging by last night Fury wouldn't have as much as a hard night as people expect

Maybe Usyk mooched about in there in the hope Fury would be drawn out and Come out next, but yeah, still rate Usyk highly, and Tyson, but Usyk is not on Tysons level

[tonyevs]

Fury is still favourite because of his bigger size against 'the middleweight''.

As been wrote here earlier. Fury's body punching are not of the sharp accurate sort which Dubois landed with that low blow; Fury's are the bludgeoning sort which Usyk is likely to counter the bigger and slower Fury off.

My concern is, if Fury finally feels confident of beating Usyk, then his past history of being unreliable and unreasonable may make Hrgovic even more reluctant to take step aside money.
It could take 6mths to get Fury in with Usyk even if Fury said yes today .. if Fury were to win, due to the legit challenge Hrgovic presents it could take Fury another 18mths to agree to fight him .. in which time Fury would likely decide to retire legitimately the week before it's arranged.

Hrgovic has legit chance if beating Usyk. That the next fight we'll see Usyk in.

Only one way to find out and he doesn't seem to want to do it.

[tigermoth87]

Usyk boxes his head off.

We'll never see it though because Fury is shit scared.

[Phenomenal-Nutrition]

I initially went with Fury pre 2023 but Fury's looked sloppy in his last fight and is innactive and Usyk really knows how to start upping the tempo going through the gears. Fury knows how hard a fight this is and it's why he's blatantly ducked it. Fury also likes to catch breaks in fights by holding or dropping the pace but against Usyk he won't let the pace of the fight slow.

[margaret thatcher]

need to see how fury looks vs the great boxer francis ngannu first

[Oiky]

Ngannou vs Fury is a waste of time

Usyk likes to let you believe you're in the fight,f****ng with your head and then turn up the heat as the fight goes on, I wouldlnt count him out of a fight with anybody

Just think Tyson would beat him

Let's hope it happens

[BigDoofus]

Fury wins and Usyk fleeing to Poland during negotiations suggests he knows it.
