Fury/Usyk

[MaxHardcore]

The big fight is upon us, how do you see this fight going?

Could go either way in my opinion. Odds would have to be on usyk for a points win or late round stoppage, but Fury could get in there and do the same.

Fury by knockout. Usyk was smarter than Fury last time around and it was a split decision - albeit the ref saved Fury late on. Fury took victory for granted and wasn't helped by his idiot father telling him to back off, as he was winning. I suspect he will not be in the corner at this fight, spouting nonsense.

Usyk doesn't have a granite chin. When Dubois knocked him out, he was rolling around as if he had been shot. I lost all respect for him after that Oscar winning performance.

I tipped Usyk to prevail last time and without jinxing him I expect him to do the job again. Fury will start aggressively this time but I think Usyk wil weather the storm and get victory, possibly a stoppage.

I don't like what I'm hearing from Turki Alalshikh, he definitely has a horse in the race which is Fury. No way was their last bout a legit split decision, Usyk won the bout clearly IMO.

I agree about the decision - Usyk was robbed. Just like Dubois, who flattened Usyk.

Not sure about that, the blow was declared a low blow, Usyk merely played on that, I'm certain that if the ref started counting he would have beat the count.

If I was a betting man, that's where my money would go, but I think anything could happen, equally Fury could put Usyk away, he looked very uncomfortable for a couple of rounds and Fury finished strong in the 12th. No way was Usyk robbed in the last fight, but the correct decision was made.

That's what I'd expect,  nothing like a loss to motivate a fighter.
