Tyson Fury isn’t being given a lot of an opportunity by followers on social media for his rematch in opposition to WBA, WBC and WBO heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk on December twenty first.
The followers that Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs) will end the job that he started within the ninth spherical of the primary struggle in opposition to Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs) on Might 18th when he had the Gypsy King getting ready to a knockout.
If there isn’t a referee that steps in to avoid wasting Fury by giving him a fight-saving standing eight rely, Usyk will probably knock him out within the rematch on December twenty first. Usyk shall be planning to unload on Fury with an avalanche of punches within the rematch and overwhelm the growing old fighter with pictures.
Fury’s greatest fear is that he’s too gradual and large to struggle off Usyk if he unloads on him with 20+ consecutive headshots like he did within the ninth spherical of their first struggle.
In actuality, Fury is 0-2 in his final two fights and is heading towards his third consecutive defeat in opposition to Usyk. That’s not good, contemplating that His Excellency Turki Alalshikh has already stated that Fury and Anthony Joshua shall be combating whatever the outcomes of their subsequent fights. Francis Ngannou deserved a win over Fury final October in Riyadh however was given a uncooked therapy by the judges.
We already noticed a hapless-looking 34-year-old Joshua get blown out of the water by IBF champion Daniel Dubois on September twenty first. It’s Fury’s flip to get destroyed in his rematch with Usyk. The UK boxing public in all probability received’t care that Fury is overwhelmed by Usyk once more, however the remainder of the world shall be delay.
They received’t need to watch a few rich, washed up fighters backing right into a PPV struggle off the again of knockout losses. If Joshua takes the rematch with Dubois, he’ll probably get knocked out once more, establishing a scenario the place he and Fury will each have consecutive defeats once they meet in 2025.
What Occurred to Fury?
I have to agree with the followers. Fury appears like he’s heading for hassle within the second struggle, and there’s not a lot he can do about it with out discovering the Fountain of Youth earlier than December twenty first.
Fury appears like he’s aged badly in the previous few years and not resembles the fighter he as soon as was. It’s unclear if he’s been burning the candle on each ends in between fights, residing it up with wealthy meals and costly drink.
What Fury has been doing when not combating has carried out one thing to him. Sitting on a large fortune like Fury, why he’d need to eat properly is comprehensible. Who wouldn’t once they bought Fury’s cash? If I used to be as wealthy as Fury, I’d be consuming excessive on the hog, too, and be simply as washed as him at his age.
Fury must carry again the model of himself that beat the stuffing out of Deontay Wilder of their second conflict in 2020 as a result of he was his career-best for that struggle. Even the model of Fury that edged 39-year-old Wladimir Klitschko in 2015 wasn’t on the degree he was when he beat Wilder within the second struggle in 2020.
