Am I the only Fury fan that actually rates him less highly after Yesterday? I'm starting to think Usyk can beat him

[dibzvincent143]

Agree with most of what you are saying, but I highly doubt Usyk would let himself be walked down by Fury - Usyk has superior footwork and lateral movement. Almost every time AJ tried to corner him he quickly moved out of range. So in my opinion Fury is far better of being lighter and faster for Usyk and using his jab and reach.

I stand corrected usyk would be too smart to let that happen. but in the slightest chance that it does then it gets real ugly for him too.
it is in his best interest if it is a chess match. I still think fury beats him though.. fury just look all weird and awkward but dude is slick, smart and fast when he boxes.. i think that might be the reason some are swayed for usyk, he looks realy cool and fundamentally sound with all his moves lol

he will just crowd usyk and lean on him


AJ's problem was that he was super cautious, he was afraid to get hit by usyk. fury wont be afraid to get hit, he will close the distance easy.

All I seem to be seeing is everyone saying how unstoppable Fury is & how he would now beat Ali in his prime,etc.

But I actually think he took a step back from the rematch last night, I thought he looked all around like he had worse reflexes,& more unsure with himself.

Conversely I see Usyk like all around the most skillful,fastest fighter at hw with enough power to beat anyone.(Wilder is so overrated to this day just because Fury stood still & let him land his best 1-2 multiple times, the same punches that he would've never landed in the rematch & which were going slower because Wilder gained weight.

I agree. He didn't look good at that weight, and he looked very sluggish. He did box nicely, the same way Toney can come in looking sluggish but has such an instinct in the ring...

People got caught up because it was a great fight. But I think people will get some perspective as time goes by.

Fury had been out of the ring for 22 months, he had a badly injured ankle, had caught Covid twice and was sleeping on a hospital floor for a week last month, plus he was unmotivated to fight a guy that he's already beaten twice.

Fury can perform a lot better than he did at the weekend, the fact that he can show up at less than 100% and still KO a dangerous man like Wilder just shows how great he is.

All fair points for sure...

thats not even the half of it, he had a sniffley nose, sore toenail, itchy scalp, terrible headache, vertigo & a ****y tummy bad runs for two weeks! hes lucky he could walk to the ring
