The Boxing thread

[MCFC Wirral]

Looks like I can stream it on TNT through Discovery also. Any ideas whether it’ll be better commentary than DAZN?

Really hope usyk wins and if it’s down to boxing skill then he would win hands down but I think fury will use his strength to wear usyk down and. Tire him .

Usyk is the better boxer by a distance but doesnt have the power to hurt fury

Fury is a Great boxer and a lot better than people give him credit for, I am not his biggest fan because of the show that's follows him around, Tyson mouth does him no credit, but the only thing is he backs it up.
Usyk got one thing going for him and its his speed, Tyson does not like chasing a boxer around the ring and will want to use his weight on Usyk,

its not going to be one of this out of this world fight, The referee will have a major say in the fight and control what Tyson can get away with in holding and body shots. But like I have already said Tyson cut over the eye could be the key and any close calls with a clash of heads will be used in defence of Tyson being stopped

I dont deny that fury is a great boxer, just my opinion that usyk is more technically skilled, im with you in that the show and the drama that follows fury around is to his detriment, i just hope its a clean fight and not controversial but i have a feeling it will be.

Still time for Fury to get a paper cut and withdraw again.

Do you think Fury's cut above the eye has fully healed, The scar will open up if a clash of heads or a good punch lands sweetly on it, Everybody is dodging asking the Question in the media, So it must be a close call that all the reporters have been asked to not bring it up

Controversial doesn't matter really considering there is going to be a rematch anyway, I hope Fury gets absolutely battered.

im not sure there will be i think if fury gets comprehensively beaten or knocked out he might retire.

if it was as deep as suggested then i cant see how it would have healed sufficiently, i can only think that because usyk is giving up 6 inches to him that they think a clash of heads around that area is unlikely but its definitely susceptible to even a glancing blow but then he has the easy out of saying he wasnt really healed, the loss doesnt count blah blah blah

This is one of the fights he has dodged, this is his nemesis and he'll lose everything to USYK, there hasn't even been a coming together of Joshua and Fury which is a bit weird, the battle of Britain hasn't happened.

Zhang would beat Fry
Usyk will beat him
Joshua would dislodge his face given the opportunity.

Imagine what Mike Tyson or Lenox would have done to this boxing landscape?
