Tyson Fury: Usyk Went Life and Death With Chisora, Then Beat a Bodybuilder!
WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury is planning to take down mandatory challenger Dillian Whyte - and then topple IBF, WBO, IBO, WBA champion Oleksandr Usyk.
Fury is slated to defend his title against Whyte on April 23, likely at Wembley Stadium.
Usyk is going to face Anthony Joshua in a rematch, with a target date being positioned for the month of May.
Should Usyk win, Fury would like to face him in a full division unification.
“You can only take who you can fight at the time,” Fury said to The National. “I’ve got Dillian Whyte next and then there’s a little sucker called Usyk who I’m going to absolutely set about rotten. The middleweight. Send him packing. Send him back down to middleweight. That’s all I’m going to do.
“AJ’s a big old bodybuilder. He ain’t worth a carrot. I don’t want to hear how good Usyk is. Let him fight a real heavyweight. He fought an old journeyman in Derek Chisora and it was life and death.
“And then he fought a bodybuilder who’s not even a boxer and had a life-and-death [fight]. Until he fights a real fighting man you can’t call him a champion. All roads lead to me; I’m the ‘Gypsy King’. If he can beat me I’d say he’s a good man. But if he can’t I’ll still say he’s useless.”
Fury expects Usyk to overcome Joshua when they meet for a second time.
The first time around, back in September of last year, Usyk outboxed Joshua over twelve rounds to capture the unified crown at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
“Usyk will beat him in the rematch. Yet again. Because AJ’s a bum, he can’t fight. He’s been exposed. He’s a cross-fit bum. And that’s all I want to say," Fury said.
Bless them. Just found boxing and want to offer the opinion they just read.

Added to the fact that this rematch clause hasn't held up anything. Fury wanted a fight before Usyk. He's getting one. We'll see if he still has the same appetite later this year.
The Wilder/Fury stuff genuinely did hold up the division. For a long time.
But let's not let silly things likes facts get in the way of a pro-Fury

Yeah, these rematch clauses really slow things down
like when fury had to rematch wilder for the third fight hence we didn’t get to see the undisputed fight again

If it wasn't for the ridiculous rematch clause Joshua would be out of the equation having been beaten hands down and we would be seeing the fight that matters Fury v Usyk . Usyk is an excellent boxer and a joy to watch but sticking to the facts is never going to do to Fury what he did to Joshua .Fury is a much bigger version of
I dont remember Oleksandr Usyk needing the help of paid-off referees and judges to win important matches. Tyson must be Savanah Marshall in drag, their long for Oleksandr Usyk and Clarresa Shields exceptional boxing skills are apparent in their strong and ridiculous critique.
