Oleksandr Usyk v Tyson Fury 2, December Twenty First

[TIC]

i don't think i ever rated demsey on here. i was happy to see him finally step up against filip hrgovic but he showed exactly where i thought he was at. a step up for moses. we saw demsey fight in survival mode against filip so it'll be interesting to see if moses can get him out early. i should really be moses itauma v johnny fisher but eddie don't want to burst that bubble yet

Just a domestic undercard aside from solid co main. Did they tighten the purse strings on Turki lately? Doesn't exactly speak of "saving boxing" . David Allen brought out of the cooler for a ppv eh . Missed a mass opportunity to have a Zhang or Parker etc. on the side of a high profile undisputed (mostly) anticipated rematch. At least they finally fixed the poster with Fury's mug now in the challenger position. Favoritism 101.

i think the first image might be an old one. the latest announcing the undercard has tyson's name first

In either case Fury should be billed secondly as the prior loser and challenger. I'm also convinced again that Usyk should not trust the cards. Could go all tinfoil hat and think it a subtle tell of favoritism, Fury with "reignited" under him and Usyk with "undercard" but that would just be nutty.

[Mark TKO]

I'll wait till nearer the time for my prediction.

Had fury 60-40 favoured last time, this time currently the other way round but let's see what shape the big man is in around fight time. Can't help thinking a trilogy is on the cards either....

If its close, without a round 9 type incident, Fury will get the nod

Fury should man handle him the way George f o r e man handled Frasier, that's the only way

[Mark TKO]

Well he has the tools to do it.

Just hope he's going to be in top shape.

Am hoping he drops his dad from his corner

Except Fury does not have even a fraction of the power that Foreman has. Or the ring generalship. Or the mental toughness. Or the character. Also as much as I love the bones of Frazier, Usyk is way better defensively and will not be there when Fury finally throws a decent punch. Look how Fury struggled with a clearly clueless Wilder. Parker made it look easy and Fury made it look like a life and death war. The big oaf is going to walk himself into a humiliating KO if he doesn't even begin to acknowledge how much he struggled in the first fight.
