Max weight for Usyk ?

[Evander]

Usyk doesn't seem to have any change.

Ali Drew is something else isn't she.

[Evander]

Even the Usyk Bunce interview was so so.
Usyk looked bored and expected the same old and dealt with it easily.
He ran out the clock because he was allowed to.

[BroughtonRulesRefuge]

- Usyk was a middlewt for ama debut, but soon went straight into the traditional 200lb Hvy division ca 2008. Turned pro as the Olympic Gold Hvy champ to weigh incrementally over 200 his first 5 fights and never under 198 with 199 being most of his cruiser career.

Moved to Hvy at 215/217 first 2 fights and been 221 ever since. Don't know his training regimen for this, but I'd imagine with Wlad and Vit aping Fury style along with specific weight training, he'll be around 223-225 for this Flubber disaster. Flubber already bricked his shorts over the 150mil 50/50 split to fight AJ in Saudi Arabia, and then bricked it again in the first Usyk fight with some kind of fuzzy picture of a cut with a fuzzy video that looks like his Jr High School son cut and pasted together.

Stylistically Flubber will make this his dirtiest fight ever because he knows he should've retired after bricking the 1st fight. Usyk will do his best with otherworldly footwork and potshots to humiliate Flubber in the ring, perhaps sparking Flubber Daddy to storm the Ring like Roger Mayweather did when he was in TBE TUE corner vs Judah. No matter the methodology, a Ring Riot for a DQ is quite possible, because otherwise the humiliation will be too much for Flubber.

As always, they got to make scratch line and then fight, so que sera, sera...

[golden_labrador]

they wouldn't dare ring riot in Saudi.

[Evander]

Usyk 5 pounds over my maximum.
Bit of pudge around the midrift.

[Evander]

Great weigh in

[Evander]

Usyk 233

[Evander]

Fury 262

[Bobbyptsd]

Usyk 233

He's 223.5 Buffer announced it wrong.

[Evander]

Saw that.
He looked 233

[ironbeard]

Usyk had a couple pounds hanging off of him, but he is much heavier than I expected. I get the feeling that he is coming for a KO. Or, he may have come to that overnight point in life where it becomes significantly more difficult to take the weight off.

Fury looks to be in as good condition as he can be.

Intriguing.

If I were Fury I would be testing Usyk to the bidy early and often. Of course, v Usyk, that could give him the opening he is looking for.

I also do not think that Fury has ever been properly tested to the body. Usyk lefts to the body could open up Fury for something along the lines of JMM’s first KD of Manny in The Planquiao.

Still, carrying an extra 10 for 12 rounds v Fury is a significant ask of a 37 year old body that must move to be victorious.

Except he isn't - he was 223.5lb, so that's an extra 2.5lb.

Well, that’s how bad my ears are these daze. And I actually ran it back because I couldn’t believe it.

Usyk nearly had his KO though.

We just witnessed the clear difference between Usyk and Lomassiah. Usyk, in big trouble with 5 rounds to go, finds a way to come on and clearly defeat a man 6” taller, at least 40 pounds heavier, with a huge reach advantage.

Usyk is who Lomasciples fantasize the focus of their worship to be: The ONLY true boxing world champion.

Usyk is The King of the Hill. All hail the King.

[Evander]

This has to rank up there in times as one of the best cards I have seen.
Amazing show it was superb.

Had it 115-113 Usyk

[Evander]

Got to hand it to Usyk.
He did everything right and his chin held up during those choppy moments.
He's worthy of the win.

[Evander]

Usyk v Fury 2

Potentially a great fight, it's a coin flip.

[Evander]

Rematch weights ... about the same Fury a bit heavier,

[margaret thatcher]

they fought like 3 days ago and we're guessing rematch weights already ?

usyk's weight been very consistent, if he fights again prob be about the same. who knows about fury, a lotta time left and he's erratic, could go on a bender, have a mental episode, or some sheeyat

It's late May and they're talking October let's get on it

[Syntax Error]

Neither of these two will fight again this year.

[Evander]

Why not, it's a hot rematch with everything on the line.

[Cent0089]

did he weighed 223 or 233 ?

[Evander]

Who knows.
233 or thereabouts I think.

Perhaps things have changed.
Last time I heard it was October rematch.

[Evander]

Usyk by fight time definitely looked it the 230 range no matter what they say.

[Evander]

At 220 he doesn't survive the mid rounds.
If he does bring him in at 220 for the rematch.
