Surprised no thread yet?

Must be the most under-hyped AJ fight ever. I guess because Eddie Hearn has walked away from Sky over to DAZN. Usually he would be promoting like mad in fight week.

So, what are your predictions? I'm backing it to go the distance and Usyk on points.

He is one hell of a boxer. I can only see one winner, especially if it goes the distance.

USyk struggled with Chisora, he's super talented but not at heavyweight. AJ will wipe the floor with him within 4 rounds.

Will usyk handle the size and power? I guess we will soon see. If he can elude AJ he will box his ears off for 12 rounds but if AJ can get to him it will be lights out for usyk

I think back to the klitschko fight.
AJ was struggling in the middle rounds. Then at the start of the 11th he stood up and just annihilated klit. He threw him around the ring like a teddy bear.
AJ has that in his locker, at any given moment.
So I can’t see how usyk beats him.
I hope I’m wrong, as I’d like Usyk to be champion (then AJ to win the rematch).

I love AJ by the way.

In this division, other than Fury imho, every fighter is vulnerable to one perfect punch on the button. We saw an under prepared AJ suffer this fate to Fat Ruiz. It changes the course of heavyweight fights.

To me that Usyk’s only chance.

Hes talented, quick and unbeaten so cant take him too casually. As Fury said he's bigger than Ali and Mike Tyson.

But I do agree, AJ's power should be too much. I watched the Chisora fight and still not sure how Usyk won :shrug:

As Del Boy said in interview, AJ should just walk him down and pile into him, dont let Uysk, bob, move and hit.

AJ in 6

I love that AJ is a classy and polite gentleman, I do also love Fury though for all the opposite reasons of being a lairy showman.

Fury is the more natural boxer with more ring craft imho, and I want him to smash Wilder more than I want AJ to beat Uysk.
Wilder is rubbish, just a one punch KO wonder who cant actually box, he bottled the AJ fight and tried to pretend it was the other way around, he handpicked bums and gimmes for his title defences and then made a million excuses when Fury beat him up.

I do believe Fury and AJ would genuinely fight anyone and not bottle, Wilder is a mouthy show pony.

Hopefully AJ tonight, then Fury to knock Wilder sparko and then on to the big one!
