Agreed, I favor Usyk also. I also think he employs fight management. He knows he doesn't have to win every round, so he doesn't try to. A lot of the ATGs did the same.
Will Fury duck Usyk?

Also Fury doesn't do well against smaller, mobile guys as seen with Cunningham, and admitted by Tyson himself.

Re: Will Fury duck Usyk?
It would have to be late, after a sustained attack. The shots that have dropped him seem a little more than Uysk throws.

Francis has been so classy after too, no screeching about it regardless.
Re: Will Fury duck Usyk?
I think Fury's punch resistance is waning and heavyweight Usyk hits as hard as Neven Pajkic and Steve Cunningham. Usyk might not hit hard, but he's accurate. For me, the BIG thing is..... can Fury raise his mental game back to where it needs to be.

Re: Will Fury duck Usyk?
I think this is much more likely than people who say he's always been rubbish. He's been brilliant at times, but something really seemed amiss last fight. And might have been so vs Whyte if Whyte had offered anything other than haymakers seen 4 years before being thrown. We'll find out next time he gets hit properly if it is punch resistance decline or a one off.

Is he still in his dark room? Has he lost the key and now accidentally locked in? Will he eventually emerge with a lion's mane and deep roar? Fury's bois need to zero in on this now!![]()

“When you’re with a fighter everything is going well then at the end something goes wrong and the first one to blame is the trainer.”
“The way it was going, the people involved, things they were doing to prepare for a fight, things were going on in training camp I would just sit and laugh by myself.
I told the management team can you just please fly me home I’m not going to be part of this, they convinced me to stay, change things around, which I did – I changed things around and we ended up doing good.
But one week into camp I was ready to leave camp so if that was the case [that they weren’t happy with me] they should have sent me home when I wanted to go.”
Comment : Is this guy ever going to take responsibility for his failures? I doubt it.
I'm going to change my username to Nostrildamnus

Why isn't there an actual date? What if Fury gets injured between now and February and the fight slips past Riyahd season?big lennox wrote: ↑31 Oct 2023, 20:02 Pushed back to February. It's just not going to happen, is it!?

Re: Will Fury duck Usyk?
I know a few people who were looking forward to this fight.
Any word if Usyk will sue Fury? I can't imagine he'd stoop to that level.

Strange that, Fury himself said he didn't have any cuts and took his cap off to prove it.big lennox wrote: ↑31 Oct 2023, 20:02 Pushed back to February. It's just not going to happen, is it!?

I can’t see Fury being on a strict diet over the Christmas period. He loves his cake! I think as per usual the Usyk stuff is make believe press content to stay relevant.

He isn't going to duck him. Everything is proceeding perfectly
. My only lament is that Joshua Wilder might get cast aside now for either man vs Ngannou.

Fury is going to sue himself for not fighting on December 23rd.
Re: Will Fury duck Usyk?
I thought this had to be on Dec 23rd as it had to tie in with the final of the FIFA Club Cup Final the day before ? I wonder if the Saudi's will get fed up with Fury mucking them around and want other fights ?

Re: Will Fury duck Usyk?
I will accept AJ - Wilder in on the 23rd December and Fury-Usyk in February.
Ngannou fights both winners on the same night in April!
