Breaking the law is still immoral. It was meant to be light hearted anyway.

I don't think the mind games will work with Usyk

I'd hope so! Went to the first AJ fight at the Spurs stadium and he's an absolute master of his craft, he's definitely got the tools to win

Chopping people up is immoral, executing children is fucking immoral, trying to put those in the same bracket as breaking any law, well that makes you look like a tool.

Some laws are immoral themselves.

Stinging people for £200 a month then making them pay £25 or £30 on top to watch a fight is more immoral in my view than paying someone £60 a year to watch TV.

The internet is a very serious business.

No room for light heartedness here thank you very much.

As I'm finding out, I'm sure I'll adjust to getting outraged over absolutely nothing in time

That's a 2/1 shot versus 5/1.  ;D

Usyk doesn't have huge HW power really and Fury has a solid chin and great recovery. I'm going to have a bet on a draw or Usyk to win by DQ.

Fury coming in so light is an interesting one, hard to know who that benefits more.
I'd be rather surprised if Usyk won by stoppage (unless Fury gets cut) as it's the least likely outcome IMO. That being said, there's a danger that Fury will be weaker and have less punch resistance than expected if he is indeed light on the scale.

Though it's a toss up on paper, I suspect one fighter will win easily, I just don't know who 🤣

Great analysis William btw.

Opetiaa v Breidis was a bit of a war the first time round wasn't it?  I didn't see it but saw Opetiaa won it with a broken jaw.

When I grow up I want to be Usyk. I don't think anybody would want to emulate a Fury. Unless you are a twat.

What do you mean you dosser? You're a right sausage.

I agree by the way, the Fury family are all helmets.

Fury is a weird case, he had such a poor showing against Ngannou when he should've blasted him out of there like AJ did, even without training. Going for Usyk majority decision.

Fury being a dick at weigh in by putting his head into Usyk. Really hope Usyk knocks him out, if it goes the distance then I think Fury wins, whether he deserves it or not. Fury will just turn it into a bore fest by trying to hold onto Usyk and wear him down with his weight.

Surprise with Usyks weight!

Wouldn’t be surprised if Usyk had some weights in his jeans when he was weighed!
