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.

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. 

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.

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.

I think Fury's biggest issue with Usyk is his gas tank, Usyk is so accurate and efficient, not to mention smothering, the amount of punches Fury needs to throw to keep him off exhausted him in the last fight. If and it's a big if he's got fit enough to fight at a high enough pace, I think Fury would put Usyk away. Fury dominated him for a couple of rounds and showed his size advantage, but it looked clear he couldn't maintain it. 

Either way, I'm looking forwards to this one, 2 immensely talented boxers and everything to play for.

Fury wobbled usyk a few times with uppercuts but didn't follow up just stood there looking at him as if to say how do you like that if he had  gone in for the kill it wouldn't have gone to points usyk is brilliant but I fancy fury by stoppage middle to Late rounds he's dropped some weight for speed so he won't be as lumbering as he was 1st one I could be completely wrong it's just my opinion

I think you might be wrong, most people are claiming Fury is heavier for this bout.

I think Fury's problems  is his legs think he has slowed down a lot.  Hey we all get older.  Think he is still on the white powered  he is forever rubbing  his nose. . His father John needs to keep well out of the. Way . I admire  Usyk and. Have followed  him for a very long time .

I think the point about his father is right. Sugar Hill was telling Tyson he was two rounds down, whereas John Fury was telling him to step off the gas as he was winning. John Fury was a truly amateurish, awful boxer and contributes nothing but shambolic behaviour. 

I liked Usyk until his Oscar winning - rolling around, screaming on the floor for five minutes against Dubois.

Is it not phycology from fury to make Usyk think he's gonna be heavier for it when in fact he's lighter we'll find out at the weigh in today

It would be a huge advantage if he can trick there team as they will train and gear up to deal with a stronger slower boxer likely trying to take Usyk out early. It would be too late by weigh in to adjust. 

The other issue Fury has is Usyk has now been in the ring with Fury and will have a measure of him. Usyk has one of the best coaches in the business and they will capitalise on anything they believe they can exploit. Fury also has a brilliant boxing IQ, but I think Usyk and his team have the advantage there. 

I really think it's a tough call, the obvious result is another Usyk victory, but I think anyone writing Fury off is massively undertaking his ability, I wouldn't be amazed if Fury won on points or even came out swinging and knocked Usyk out in a couple of rounds. 

Time will tell, I'm looking forwards to this one.
