    Fury 19lbs heavier he’s going to try to bully him, interesting if he can’t pin usyk down, bold move but probably the right tactic very few can outbox usyk

    Agree on this, have put a bet on Fury to have a point deducted at 10/1, not one I’d usually put on with him.

    Can’t see anything other than a Usyk win on unanimous points.

    Yeah I’m edging towards usyk movement and footworks unreal, has a solid chin too, suspect to the body mind so can see that being the target

    Not sure how to call it. If I had to put 50p on a bet this second, I would say fury by stoppage. Just had that look, this time round and if the weight is true, he might be able to just walk through him and land.

    Great fight though. Shame the undercard is absolutely garbage.

    I’m just hoping it’s a good fight.

    I like them both, I understand why Fury splits opinion and recently he has been a bit of a dickhead but over the years I have loved watching him and loved his character so I’ll always have that.

    Usyk you simply can’t help but respect, like you say the way he moves is something else just so skilled and so hard to clip.

    I don’t even know who I want to win, I just know I can’t see past Usyk.

    Aye the McCann fight looked a good one until he got pinged, was half interested in fisher Allen then I saw the clip of Allen at the weigh in, punching bag, genuine 50/50 the main even for a change should be a cracker won’t be tuning in until the ring walks now though

    Think I'll have to on throughout but won't be obsessed with any of the undercard fights. Allen is getting one last pay day. Hopefully he gets out of it without eating though a straw.

    Aye hard to blame him like he’s took some hidings and make solid money from being British level at best, can see an early stoppage on his stool though

    I think had Fury taken the 1st fight seriously then he would have won on points. I can't see him getting a decision now Usyk is the champion so he's going to have to stop him and do it early
    Usyk on points for me...

    Aye he some bloke Usyk. Went straight on frontline for Ukraine, always had a touch of class and a wealth or respect about him.

    Took the biggest and most dangerous fights, stepped up every time.

    You can’t not respect everything he is and has done.

    Think I've backed against Usyk many times so I should have learned by now. Fury to cause stoppage in round 9 after all of Usyks punches deflect off his beard.

    I love boxers. My youngest is an amateur. These lads are serious sportsmen.

    I think Usyk is cut from a different cloth. I love Fury as a boxer, but can he cope with Usyk? General opinion is no. Tonight I am going with the fighting heritage of Furys community. Pride is everything. Lets see how much these two legends can trade.
