Fury V Usyk 2 Tonight! Big fight prediction

Tonight brings us the highly anticipated rematch between the 2 best heavyweights on the planet in a fight that is too close to call, but I will analyze and give my opinion on how this could turn out…

If we go back to the first fight 7 months ago, Fury may have had the fight won in his head after 5 or 6 rounds as he cruised and a mixture of Fury’s display and Usyk’s ability to adjust in a fight was the demise of Fury on this occasion.

Ultimately, the key moment of that fight was the 9th round, which Usyk dominated, resulting in 10 – 8 rounds in favor of Usyk. If this round had been 10-9 to Usyk, the fight would have ended in a majority draw. It always comes down to the margins at the top of any sport and I think Fury can adjust and correct the mistakes to get the job done tonight.

Make no mistake, Usyk is a generational great and is the only fighter who hasn’t been fazed by any of Fury’s mind games, resulting in a more focused and cooler version of Fury this time around. All games are done and this is a very different Tyson Fury.

There is no doubt that Fury has a great boxing IQ, as does Usyk, but as far as rematches go, I strongly feel Fury making the necessary adjustments to come back and improve more than Usyk. 2 notable rematches that saw massive improvement, the first being in 2009 against John Mcdermott where Fury won a very slim decision, and many thought he might have lost.

In the rematch that was not immediate, but 3 fights and 9 months later, Fury won with a stunning stoppage in the 9th round. The most notable rematch was the second fight with Wilder. The first fight saw Fury’s vulnerable recovery from a 12th-round knockdown result in a draw, and like Mcdermott’s comeback, Fury would bounce back with Wilder 3 later. The second fight with Wilder ended with Fury obliterating him with a seventh-round stoppage.

This rematch is different for different reasons. Usyk is head and shoulders above Mcdermott and Wilder. This is an immediate rematch, and both fighters are undoubtedly past their prime and reaching the end of their careers. Make no mistake though, as many of the great heavyweight wars, such as The Thrilla in Manilla in 1975 between Ali v Frazier in their trilogy, both fighters were past their prime and reaching the end of their races, but this did not affect. making it one of the best matches in heavyweight history and I think this one can live up to expectations as well.

If Usyk were to win, then I think this may be the last time we see the two fighters back in the ring as the best they could do. Fury would be coming off back to back losses, Usyk has been a unified champion in 2 weight divisions and has already beaten 2 of the top contenders including current IBF World Champion Daniel Dubois and former World Champion Anthony Joshua.

A win for Fury would open up the division for a trilogy with Usyk, a massive fight with Anthony Joshua or another unification fight with the winner of Dubois V Parker, although if Parker wins that’s another story as Parker and Fury are very close, but the point remains that a Fury win will generate more money than a Usyk win and that’s a fact.

How to win this game is again very difficult to call and a very interesting statistic jumps out at me. Usyk has never been officially knocked out in his professional career so far, however, he was knocked out by unified lightweight world champion Artur Beterbiev with a vicious body shot to fans in 2011. That defeat was in the final round and the Another interesting stat is that Fury has won by KO in every round except round 12.

My prediction is a 12th round stoppage for Fury as that stat just screams at me and I’m thinking Fury will want to leave it all in the ring this time.

I can see it going to points but I want to make a bold prediction and I’ll put a few pounds on Fury for KO in the 12th round.
