Max weight for Usyk ?

Post by Evander »

What's the highest weight you think Usyk will weigh in at for the Fury fight ?

I'm thinking 225-228 Pounds.

On a guess.
If the footage of Tyson getting cut is true, what weight would he have been at during those encounters.
Looks 268 -ish.

I think it is going to be very tough for Fury to maintain focus for another 4 months - usyk seems the type who is pretty much always in the gym, so won't be an issue for him.

I wonder if Usyk will try and find a stay busy fight, I think he should, although there's always the risk he himself gets injured pushing it back even further.

End of the day it's going to be a minimum 40 pound advantage.
There will be no stay busy fight.

Anywhere from 220 - 225 for me.

He doesn't need to be going above 225 otherwise he risks being slower.

He certainly is.

Fury looks like he is taking Usyk very seriously.

Watched some of the face to face with Steve Bunce.
Neither of them were giving up nothing.

Usyk is busting out of his suit.
Could be 225-230.

Lewis v Tua
Usyk can't hit against the likes of Fury.

David Tua was woeful and shockingly one dimensional in that fight; it was Left hook or bust and he had no other plan when that didn’t work.

One thing Oleksandr Usyk is not is one dimensional.

This will be a difficult fight for both men.

I don't think they'll ever fight ....... Fury will continue to find reasons to avoid him.

Maybe with how long this fight is taking the topic name should read Max Wait?

However long it takes ......... Usyk is now 37, so another 3 or 4 years should be enough.

Team Fury look like they're taking this one on another level.
The break may help them to make sure.
