Bart, jamieson, who do you have, Fury or Usyk? I personally can't pick'em.

Its tough one....
My head says Usyk as he finds a way to win... but Fury has that ability as well but Usyks tank never seems to run dry infact he gets stronger when the heat comes on...
Fury will have rounds- maybe even hurt Usyk but anytime I have seen Usyk lose and round or look in trouble the next round he takes over.
Usyk for me then
RE: Fury Usyk Dec 21 - jamieson2 - 12-02-2024
Yeah I agree it is a tough fight to pick.
I think the first fight took a lot out of both fighters. I'm not sure if Fury has it in him again. For Fury to win I think he has to start fast & let his hands go. A safety first, punch & clinch approach won't get it done. If Fury can't get Usyk out of there early, I see Usyk taking over in the second half of the fight as he tends to do.
For Usyk, he needs to start the same way as the first fight. Put that pressure on, bank rounds & test how much Fury really wants it. He can't get caught at mid range. He either needs to be inside, landing & moving laterally or out of range & setting counters.
I'm going with Usyk by decision, maybe even a late stoppage.
RE: Fury Usyk Dec 21 - diehard - 12-02-2024
I had Fury winning the early rounds, and Usyk in trouble and frustrated. Then his corner said something profound to him (can't remember what) and he came out a different fighter in the middle rounds and into to later rounds. If Fury can get him early, and not let him change gears, he can stop him. But, I think Usyk is too good for that, and thinking about it, gotta go with Usyk by stoppage.

Serhii Bohachuk will now face Ishmael Davis on the Dec. 21 Oleksandr Usyk-Tyson Fury II undercard. Madrimov is out with bronchitis. Makes sense for Madrimov to just fight Ortiz Jr in February.
