Fury very slight favorite now?
..
He threatened to pull out of the Klit fight as he thought the canvas was too padded. It was either the day before or the day of the fight.
you can still get 14/1 and it’s the only bet with real value so people listening to gareth Davis and a few others will jump on it
I'll just drop this here for anyone interested in the sentimental side of things……
I was more on about the fight getting made etc. Many many people believe he never wanted the Usyk fight and was ducking it. So, if he was to come out with this trip hazard, only natural folks then wondering about pull outs and excuses (not to fight).
I’m still not 100 percent the fight happens till ring walks.
remind me, not saying he hasn't but I don't recall him complaining about stuff before any fight?
It's silly and pointless mind-games, if so. Questioning the canvas due to a trip hazard. Seems to have 0 relevance to Fury and mind-games. Why would Fury even give a fiddlers.
Of course we would because he has history. Only natural. If Usyk had history, we'd be getting at him for this one
Usyk mind games , Doing what Fury did to Vlad,
Draw gone from 16/1 to 12/1
If that was Furys team complaining we'd have "the excuses are coming out already"
Usyk and his team apparently not happy with the canvas
I think he is a bit weirded out by Usyk. Knows he can't get in his head so a bit subdued.
We may not take anything from it but if your a fighter & your last fight you feel you could have lost against a walk in the park trust me it'll stay with you until you get your next win ,
All fighters will always questions themselves even if they don't say it publicly , You no human if you don't fell doubt at some point ,
Id read absolutely nothing into the Ngannou fight.
If that was the case Usyk can take it easy.
Yes, said same. AJ happy just to compete. Didn’t show that real aggressive “kill” attitude.
Fury : I don't want to be compared to anyone else.
Also Fury : I'm Achilles and he is Hector.
After the Francis fight of course he'll be doubting himself,
Although that may not be a bad thing, One thing we can all agree with is that Fury has grit, He will put it all on the line ,
I honestly think if AJ was willing to go out on his shield he'd have beat Usyk the second time, You have to push your self right to the brink in these super fights, To me AJ got to a point where he was happy to lose as long as he didn't get knocked out , I thiink Fury in a similar position would put the foot down & just go for it,
Yup. They can fook off with rematch. Get us Fury/AJ as soon as
Aj next fight sorted
lots of talk about fury sweating and it’s a sign he’s on peds, the heat out there is insane it’s 33* at night and very humid, it’s vital to keep hydrated obviously so he’s bound to sweat even sugar was sweating in his interview after the mess about
I hope fury and Usyk don’t have too many media commitments because that won’t help either man
Yes. I was never really one these who looks too much into words and body-language, but sometimes it strikes me. He just comes across not assured. Usyk his usual steely concentrated self. He comes across as someone truly in control of what he can do.
Intriguing match. So difficult to call.
I’ve been thinking similarly. He seems to swing a bit between chirpy and confident and then a bit withdrawn. Usyk staring at him with laser focus and confidence. Nothing will be clear until Saturday but all these little tells are interesting
Anyone think Fury looks as if he’s doubting himself? Just a vibe. After his workout yesterday profusely sweating. He spoke for a bit. Doesn’t seem really on it!!!!!
Funny you say this i seen Shane Fury tlaking baout how Chisora, Aj & Dubious are all lean forward heavy weights,
AJ tried to stand back & box which isn't natural for him , Its natural for Fury ,
Not being funny but that Atmosphere in the middle east is more like the East than the West
In the East they sit quietly & clap, in the West you get a crazy atmosphere, The middle east leans more East ,
Usyk’s big issue is scoring punches to head, which judges will rate higher than hitting arms, shoulders, belly etc. If Fury makes himself as tall as can be, Usyk will find it difficult to land head shots. Fury should find it more easy and comfortable to land head shots.
Haye usually TNT. Bellew is Sky, and Froch is Sky I think.
Just wondering what channel to go for in terms of coverage, production, pundits & commentary? Rare that same fight is covered by all 3 major networks/platforms this side of the pond. I guess whichever one that means I won't have to suffer David Haye or Carl Froch might be a good place to start....
