After the top two heavy matches between Anthony Joshua – Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury – Deontay Wilder had results, the audience must have begun to have his speculation about the match of all heavy champions between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury.
So does Oleksandr Usyk have the opportunity to defeat Tyson Fury? Andrre Ward, absolute champion in the weight of Middleweight and Light Heavyweight, said that the winning door for Oleksandr Usyk is not too high.
“Tyson Fury is not only bigger, but also a very good technique,” Ward commented.
“Perhaps we will not see Usyk against Fury, because USYK needs to be rematched with Anthony Joshua.
However, compared to what was shown in the Fury vs. Wilder 2, the performance of Tyson Fury over the weekend was not really appreciated.
Fury was fierable, slower, perhaps due to the influence of 20 months sitting outside the fighting floor as well as positive for Covid-19. But fortunately for him that even though Fury was worse, Deontay Wilder's physical drawback still helped Fury win – Wilder showed signs of shortness from the third half, the fourth half of the match.
Oleksandr usyk is clearly not leaving this drawback to Tyson Fury. USYK has the ability to move flexibly, Cardio is very good, and Boxing technique is also excellent.
Anyway, USYK needs to surpass Anthony Joshua in the rematch scheduled to take place in 2022. Andre Ward believes that in this match, Joshua's ability to “flip” to win Usyk is not low.
“Joshua has proven that he can change very thoroughly to serve a certain match, a certain opponent. For example, the rematch against Andy Ruiz,” Ward said.
“Therefore, although in the last match, Joshua lost very thoroughly, there was no guarantee that he would not” flip “in the rematch.”
“I think Joshua's big problem is that he has not been able to hold the exact” script “to defeat Usyk. He will have to think about how to stop attacking continuously from a smaller puncher. But Joshua still has a physical advantage – he can take advantage of it, can launch heavy blow while lure and keep distance from Jab.”
