[Boxing] Tyson Fury Vs Oleksandr Usyk 21 December 2024

[Kemarit]

Less than 2 months to go to the epic rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury.
The first bout ended with Usyk winning by a split decision.

How do you think the fight will go down this time?

Bookies are favouring Usyk with odds of x1.52 while paying x2.40 for Fury.

I think Fury might have learn several things from his first lost. And it looks like he will go heavy again in this fight. And with that, he could used his old strategy of using his weight and putting it all on his opponents, like what he did against Wilder. With that if you have to carry his weight in clinches it will sap all your energy.

Not sure though how can he do that to Usyk as it didn't work the first time. Because Usyk is agile and was able to get away from those clinches and has bigger IQ, he can smell from afar what Fury wanted to do. But if Fury execute it perfectly in the rematch, he might have a good chance to win by decision as it might lead to Usyk reading tired and gassing out in the round.

I honestly don't know who should be the favourite here and I consider it a 50/50 fight. On one hand, Usyk did win the first one fair and square, but it was a really close one, and if it wasn't for that knockdown (or standing count) who knows what the result would be.
Tyson seems to have his mind in the right place before the rematch. He's more collected and composed than before the first fight when he was acting a bit off at times.

Given that I give each 50% to win, if I had to bet, I'd bet on Fury, simply because the odds are better.
But instead of betting on the winner, I might be tempted to bet that the fight won't go the distance:


I think Fury will be keen on taking more risk, which will either pay off or he will get punished.

A new face-off video got published today and it was quite ridiculous 
They were staring each other down for like 11 minutes straight. This must be some sort of a record. The friendly vibes ended around 9th minute when Fury started talking shit, allegedly that he's going to smash Usyk to pieces.
That's a lot of contrast from their first fight when Fury refused to look at Usyk at all. Since that approach didn't bring him the expected result, he decided to do it differently this time around and overcompensated by taking it a bit too far.
Luckily they got separated eventually, otherwise they would still be standing there trying to win the staredown.

  Tomorrow's heavy weight championship Match between Usyk and Fury will be a cracker as both boxers will be coming into this match knowing what is at stake to they have an image to protect but for fury he already he already has his back again the wall so he has nothing to loss coming into tomorrow's game he just has to come and and gives his best as he is still one of the biggest fighters currently in the world he will be going into the match hoping to reclaim his title that he lost to usyk later early this year, for usyk he will be going into this game with pressure as everyone is expecting him to retain his title I think this will be one of the best boxing matches that will have to see in recent time as both fighters are out to give out there best as they are the two best pound to pound fighter in the world now, the saudi fans will be trailed with the best of boxing as soudi is now fast becoming the home of boxing matches as they are hosting almost all boxing matches this year

Its the longest I've seen so far. I noticed Fury blinking three times on the staredown. Usyk is very steady. It was Lewis who says you have to impose yourself and win the staredown to have an advantage in the fight. Usyk is very calm compared to Fury, who is very tense and angry.
I have Usyk winning this time by a knockout here, and I think this time he has figured out how to finally know out Fury, Winning is in Usyk's DNA; he always finds a way, and skill-based, he has what it takes.

Then promotion wasn't hyped much unlike the first encounter so if the are not making money for this rematchy the result will be the same and Usyk will win.

Are tickets sold out? They are not revealing information yet as far as I know and if this is a flop there will be no trilogy to be fought. We shall see whether Turki will be interested.

There's not much noise, but Fury is taking a different approach to the fight. That's because Usyk proves to be a real challenge for him. Another loss, and he will be relegated to a B fighter, and maybe he will end fighting Joshua to prove who is a better British fighter between the two.
It depends on the result of how Fury will win the match, but its going to be interesting if he wins via knockout; the trilogy may not be that appealing, but if its close, then the third match will be attractive. We'll see the ticket sales and the PPV after the match.

By KO or by UD, whichever as long as Fury wins there will be a trilogy. They only depend on whether they can make money out of it and whether Turkish still be interested because if the sale isn't doing it, then most probably the fans out grown the rivalry of this two. I don't even see mainstream media covering this rematch. 

People knows Usyk will win this again.

How do you think the fight will go down this time?

I entirely just want an entertaining fight worthy of being called a boxing fight. Fury will be working hard to make sure not to be a loser again in a boxing fight because the last time, it took a while for him to accept his loss. From the last image he posted about his physique for the fight, the responses he received were mostly not positive.

see here: https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/boxing/new-picture-tyson-furys-physique-30536413

It still does not mean he cannot win the fight.

The dice is cast and the world is currently waiting for the Match to kickstart as there are few hours to the start of this much waited fight checking at their records this match will be intimidating as usyk has a clean record of 21 wins with no lose of which he has 14 knockout while Tyson has  34 win win only one lose out of which he he's 24 knockout so it's a tricky one for anyone to predict as both boxers has what it takes to win the match I wil really like to see this match end in a knockout

I like Fury to win so we'll have a trilogy, but from many indications, Usyk has the edge; he wins in their staredown because Fury blinks a number of times, and it seems Usyk is going on Fury's head based on how he behaves. There is fear in Fury's eyes and movement; he has tasted Usyk's fist and have seen how fast Usyk is, and his defense is very good. If he does not have an answer to Usyk's style in the early rounds of the fight, Usyk will win by decision or by knockout.

Not sure if there will be trilogy, as somewhere I have seen that Usyk plans to return to cruiserweight. I will be logical for Usyk to fight Daniel Dubois for two reasons. First, Daniel Dubois hold IBF heavyweight title, and Usyk only needs this title to be an absolute heavyweight champion. Second reason is that their first fight was a little bit controversial. Some say that Dubois landed a low blow, some say that it was was a clean punch and Usyk was in knockdown. Only money could motivate for a rematch, but I think they will earn for those two fights so many, that it will be enough to retire.

I don't think Usyk will ever return to the cruiserweight, it wouldn't make much sense for him to do it. He'll be 28 in January, and it's not a secret that you can last longer in higher weight classes where fights are usually not so fast-paced as in lower divisions. Also, he would not be able to earn as much in  the cruiserweight as he is in the heavyweight.
And yes, if he is to win the rematch with Fury, a rematch with Dubois would most likely be his next option, provided the money is right. At this stage of his career, he's probably looking to milk as much as possible out of it, given he doesn't have that many fights left in him.

After seeing how much they earn from their first fight and how much they have earned now (btw this this time Usyk received more than Fury), it isnt clear if they should continue boxing. Usyk was always a modest person, and with amount of money he has won, it is enough to live 2-3 lifes without economizing on things. A rematch against Dubois is needed. Dubois was in the ring and challenged Usyk, but I did not understand what Usyk replied, it did not sound as a confirmation for a fight. Why I thought he should return to cruiserweight - because there is now much challenge for him. Fights are more easy than in heavyweights.

Speaking of low blow, I just watched a video on Facebook regarding their fight, and based on what I saw, it seems like Dubois really punched him below the waist which is clearly a low blow. I mean it's just me because there are some saying that it was a low blow, and some saying that it isn't.

Anyway, we might see a Dubois-Usyk fight possible next year after Dubois defend his title against Parker (if he successfully defends it). I hope he will not return to cruiserweight still until he unifies all of the belts in heavyweight. That would be a better statement and might cement himself as one of the greatest heavyweight boxers of all time.

It was a nice Match to watch yesterday but this match was below expectations with the kind of media coverage that was given it I was actually expecting a knockout from this game but congratulations to fury for reclaiming his title that he lost to usyk and nice seeing him back as the world heavyweight champion
