The rematch between Usyk and Fury is almost here!
On May 18, 2024, at the Kingdom Arena football stadium in Riyadh, the heavyweight from Ukraine recorded a split decision victory. It was unclear until the very end whether there would be a rematch for many reasons - both because of the situation in Alexander's home country and because of disputes over fees for the fight.
Many experts believe that Usyk's school is much larger and more significant than that of the scandalous Gypsy King. However, Tyson has specific English training as a fighter, which should not be discounted either. Professional boxing is not always according to the rules, there are different tricks, and if Fury uses them, he may emerge victorious from the upcoming fight. Usyk is not ready to fight dirty, he is a classic boxer, but you need to be ready for this - victory is too important for Tyson to follow the letter of the boxing law. But it is obvious that the rematch will be a real super event in the world of sports. In addition, both fighters are motivated by huge fees.
In addition, many predict that if Fury manages to win for the last misfire, then the confrontation will definitely develop into a trilogy, which threatens to bring the organizers in Saudi Arabia the largest money in the history of professional boxing. Usyk will receive an incredible fee for the second meeting - $ 114 million. At the moment, this is the largest fee in the career of the Ukrainian heavyweight. Usyk will come out as charged as possible, since he does not intend to lose his undefeated status. Fury will clearly receive the most comfortable conditions, so that in case of victory, Usyk will demand a rematch from him. It is unlikely that any of the fans or organizers will refuse to take the confrontation to a new exciting circle. Even the second fight will provide the athletes with the rest, and the third, if it happens, will be golden. The public loves this couple too much.
In addition, Usyk, who refused the championship title, is inferior to Fury in weight. Due to the size and the difference of twenty kilograms, Tyson can feel more confident in the clinch and cover more space when trying to cut corners. And the weight affects the force of the blow. Usyk has already had 4 fights in the heavyweight division, but he does not have a single knockout victory, which also indicates that his blows are not powerful enough due to his weight being borderline for a heavyweight. This could become Usyk's weakness. During the preparation for the fight, Tyson returned to form, and now he will not yield to his opponent in speed. Despite his size, the Briton looks fresher and more agile than all his rivals. Fury has been fighting in the heavyweight division for almost 15 years, and Usyk spent most of his career in a different weight category. Switching to the first division is quite a difficult task. And, although most experts predict a victory for the Ukrainian, we should not forget that the Briton has recently outboxed such outstanding fighters as Klitschko, Chisora, Whyte and Wilder.
