Why are people saying he looked bad against Chisora and Witherspoon? What did they expect from Usyk in those fights? They expect him to knock them out in a couple rounds like AJ or Wilder? That’s not the kind of fighter he is. Once the ref stopped Chisora from holding and hitting, Usyk was literally boxing circles around him. Even had him hurt at the end of the 7th round, but he was saved by the bell. Chisora even went on to have a close fight with Parker after that.
Usyk did a great job in IMPOSING his stature from the opening bell to mitigate the size difference. Look at the size difference during the weigh-in face-off versus in the ring; he stood his ground and completely outboxed AJ.
We must get Fury vs Usyk and AJ vs. Wilder and Ruiz vs. Whyte and Parker vs. Wallin.
Usyk claimed he didn't look bad on purpose. He claimed that he just wasn't in the best of shape, having just recovered from C19. I believe him. He's smart, and I'm sure he could do that if he wanted, but I don't think he would ever fight at a lower level on purpose than which he is capable.
I think Tyson Fury knows a slick, smart boxer when he sees one, it'd take one to know one after all. Not surprised he made such a prediction, probably pegged Usyk as a potential threat the moment he started making waves in the heavyweight division. Smart for a boxer even of Fury's calibre to respect the skill of one such as Usyk.
100% spot on. Casuals don't have the ability to comprehend this. Sometimes there are fighters who look bad against mediocre opposition and then look incredible against top notch elite fighters, It happens all the time.

As usual Fury is leaps and bounds ahead of everyone else with his Insight & knowledge.
Get ur mask on properly idiot it's,all over the place
I've been telling people ! The hitman of heavyweight boxing. Alexander Usyk!
He is think. He is very think.
Imagine being so good at something you can pretend you’re not that good at it while still winning.
I totally thought this, he does just enough to win. But he can bring a lot more. That's why I bet on Usyk 😎
No maybe
Fury right on the money as usual.
Thought I heard Fury saying Usyk fought at a Weatherspoon 🤣
Chisora gave Usyk a hard fight

I was saying this since last week. Usyk played the fight game brilliantly!
Take that fkin' mask off ffs
The psychology of fighting.
I thought the exact same thing, uysk could easly destroy chisora
mASK MAKES NO SENSE

Spot on he was barely throwing his punches.
Maybe he didn’t show AJ everything he can do to convince him to trigger the rematch clause, and this time he’ll go for the 3rd round knockout

Tyson knew
Why is Fury wearing a mask and the intervoewer not wearing one? Seems a bit pointless.
It’s called stalling!
I have been saying the same thing, usyk kept loads in the tank, and loads of tricks in the bag. He was thinking about the rematch.
I honestly thought the same thing. Crazy.

This is how you know wilder is a bum cos Tyson didn't turn up with his best, still gave him a beating
This interview Aged perfectly
Totally agree with Tyson, USYK was cruising against Chisora and could have stopped him in the mid rounds.
