Via Charles Brun: Deontay Wilder views the fight still being negotiated between famed British WBC belt holder Tyson Fury and the smaller, faster IBF, WBA & WBO heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk as a “The 50-50 war,“could lead to which of them do the most”cheat.“
To be fair, if Fury had knocked Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) with the rabbit punches he killed Wilder in their second fight, he wouldn’t have lasted long, no matter what. how much better he is as a technician. .
It hurts me to say this, but talent and technical skills go away when you are getting brain repeatedly with blows to the back of the head, leaned incessantly without the referee lifting a finger to warn, and was roughly pushed against the canvas by a giant weighing more than 270 lb.
Naturally, Fury’s loyal boxing fans don’t believe their hero would stoop to the point of circumventing the rules for an advantage, and they’ll turn a blind eye to that fight. punch rabbit, soft gloveshold and hit, push to canvas and tilt.
Alas, 6’9″ Fury sometimes has a rough play habit, and he got away with it without multiple penalties and/or disqualification for tactics.
“I don’t know. It’s a 50/50 fight. Depends on who will cheat the most. That’s what it is; it depends on who will cheat the most,” Deontay Wilder told NEWS when asked who would win the undisputed heavyweight title fight between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk in April.
Usyk doesn’t know how to cheat, so if he starts breaking the rules of left and right, it will be the first. Obviously, the 6’3″ tall Usyk will be nearly inaccessible to the back of the 6’9″ tall Fury’s head with bunny punches, so that’s not an option if he’s going to be in the mud with him. me the next night outside the rules of the Marquis of Queensbury to win.
Being a much lighter person at 220 lbs, Usyk is too small to use his weight to rely on Fury in clinches to tire his legs, meaning that’s not an option either.
Using low shots is one thing Usyk can do to get around the law to get some air out of Fury’s tires, but by the way, the refs watch out for that while seemingly ignoring the dangerous rabbit punches. much more, that’s not an option.
