Fury pulling out due to "injury" at the 11th hour.

Reckon it'll be a draw (dodgy marking) to setup an even bigger money rematch.

Fury can't textbook boxe against usyk so i can see him trying to muscle his way to victory like he did against wilder in the second fight.
If usyk get tired of having 100+ kg on his shoulders all the time he is fucked, so i hope he work on strenght and stamina conditioning.
I can see both wins with a slight advantage to usyk.

Usyk is a much better and faster boxer than Fury.
Fury's only advantage is his size. With so much weight and reach, he can be a lot of trouble.
EDIT: M Mister Apoc How a bout a poll for people to vote on who they think will win this fight.

Whichever one has the best narrative.
Many such cases.

Think the Ref is key in the fight if he lets Fury fight dirty, loads of holding sticking his weight on him etc. then Usyk doesn't have much of a chance but if the Ref curbs it it's genuinely a 50/50.

I'll definitely be watching. It really is one of the biggest and important fights in a long time

Who is the elderly man fighting Tyson fury? Boxing is basically dead at this point.
Much rather watch the shit show that Tyson and Paul are going to have than this

Tyson is going to have to actually box, I’m just curious boxing gurus do you buy Tyson’s fury’s boxing? He’s more like a naturally gifted boxer, long duration specialist. He’s not quite a boxer and I barely remember him throwing a punch, just a physical guy. He’s more of a round guy, smart defending guy but his offense stinks.

Yes. Fury is a fantastic boxer.
In terms of Fury not throwing punches, in the 3rd Wilder fight he threw 385 punches to Wilder's 355.
When he fought Whyte, Fury threw 243 punches to Whyte's 171.
In the Klitschko fight, Fury threw 371 punches to Klitschko's 231.
Fury doesn't just hang back. He is actively looking to wear down his opponent with force.
Fury also has amazing footwork and head movement for a man of his size.
Overall a fantastic boxer. Usyk is also an amazing boxer and has done a fantastic job coming up to the heavyweight division.
Will be a great fight.

Such a pussy move to clinge and make your opponent carry their weight. I know. Tactics and all. All i hear is break break clean break no shots break breake breake yawn.

Pussy move or not, it's a pretty boring style.
Maybe he is too proud and he is gonna try to outboxe usyk because he doesn't have a one punch ko like ngannou or wilder, so maybe we have a chance for a fun match.

Those punches thrown are facts I just wonder how many were successful and increase the punches thrown.

Depends on the fighters. The number of punches landed in a boxing match depends on a lot of factors, including fighters styles, strategies and overall skill level. I'd say the average the percentage of punches landed in any professional boxing fight is around 30% - 50%.
For an example, In the Fury/Wilder 3 fight, Fury landed 150 of his 385 punches. Wilder landed only 72 of his 355 punches. Both fighters threw around the same number of punches, but Fury was able to land a lot more because he is the more skilful boxer. Usyk is a hell of a lot more skilful than Wilder, so this should be a more even fight. I have Fury to win on points, only because most of the time he out punches his opponent.

Fury has to win this fight, to redeem his legacy after his awful performance against Ngannou... would yall agree?

This thread is weird completely different group of posters (for the most part) from the boxing thread. I haven't watched heavyweights since Tyson. This seems more like MMA and wrestling than boxing to me. I want usyk to win or fury.
