Agreed
See a scenario where both can win and have Fury 60/40 favoured.
Getting really excited for this one now, not felt like this for a fight for a hell of a long time.
Am actually going to pay for it too - don't trust a stream not to fail !!

All hail @ross and @brocktonblockbust both of them had The Gypsy picked by 2014
USYK on points. Fury won't catch him and Usyk will have a a big target in Fury to hit. Usyk won't hurt Fury, but he won't be able to stop Fury unless Fury comes up with an injury- which is a possibility, but a remote possibility.
The Ukrainian rabbit came in at 233 pounds which is way too heavy for his size this is a big mistakeQuote:

Unfortunately Usyk has to know the deck is stacked via cards and decision. Just come on. He fully knows the late surge and press is essential.
That would be his ideal weight 223 lb which is what he stays at for the fight. Usyk looks focused and ready to box circles around Fury who seems erratic and desperate. That may work in Fury favour but now thinking it will be a tight contest where the rounds will be close and open to interpretation which could mean split decision.Quote:

As I've said just please don't let a cut be a deciding factor.

All I want is for Fury to lose!!
I do not care if Usyk gets some random Russia/Ukraine ptsd flashbacks and does something crazy!
Howdy folks, enjoy yer fight nights! 💪
It’s hard for me to look beyond Fury’s sheer size advantages.
There have been quite a few fighters who were considered tough opponents just because of their size. I’m thinking of people like Valuev and Zhang, or Akinwande and Terrell, going all the way back to Carnera or Willard.
And Fury is a lot more skilled and technically accomplished than those guys. He used his weight and bulk beautifully against Wilder.
I am a big Usyk fan, I think he is a fantastic fighter…. But he is 6 inches shorter than Fury, two stone lighter and he is 37 years old. It’s like these two guys should be in different weight division, and they exist for a reason.
Going to stick my neck out and pick Fury by a late stoppage.
My brain goes to the Steve Cunningham fight.Quote:
