Turki’s wild dream: Klitschko-Fury II, but only if…

His Excellency Turki Alalshikh says he has a “dream” to rematch Wladimir Klitschko and Tyson Fury from 2015. However, the rematch would only happen if Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs) defeats the champion unified Oleksandr Usyk. December 21.

Turki wants Wladimir, 48, to have a chance to break George Foreman’s record from Nov. 5, 1994, when he knocked out Michael Moorer in the 10th round to become champion at 45. Wladimir turns 49 on Nov. 25 March. It would be great if Klitschko gets a chance to avenge his loss because Fury never gave him the rematch.

The decline of the Gipsy King?

He should give Wlad a rematch, but his mental health deteriorated after his victory. He celebrated too much and stayed out of the ring until 2018. Not surprisingly, Wladimir gave up and retired. Rematch does not seem realistic. Fury will NOT beat Usyk this month. If not, a round robin on December 21 will save Tyson this time with a meaningless eight; He will probably be beaten by Usyk.

The chances of Fury defeating Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs) in their rematch this month are not good. While many boxing fans believe Fury can win, wiser minds see him as a mismatch. The Gypsy King is very old, he looks 36 years old, he looks even older than Wladimir. Fury seems closer, around 50, and that’s kind.

The food that Fury did, and obviously a lot of it, is just genetics. Some people age faster than others. His father, John Fury, looks much older than 59 years, and Tyson is the spitting image of him. It sounds like Pope, and that means he doesn’t have a prayer against Usyk in their rematch on December 21 at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh.

“I dream of seeing this fight to give him a chance if he agrees to give Klitschko back to be the oldest heavyweight champion ever. To give him the chance. This is perfect,” said Turki Alalshkikh to Ariel Helwani channel.

“Of course he (Wladimir) will not fight Usyk if he wins (against Fury on December 21) because they are two heroes of Ukraine will not fight.

Punch Stats & Scores

– Rage: 86 of 371 for 23%
– Wladimir: 52 of 231 for 23%

Fury was 27 when he fought the 39-year-old Wladimir, but the punch statistics show that he was barely better than him. If you watched the fight, as I did, there wasn’t much action from either man. Fury was doing a lot of kicks and leaning on the ropes.

It wasn’t much different from the way he fought Oleksandr Usyk, but in that fight, he was pressured by the Ukrainian. Wladimir just seemed afraid to throw. You have to remember that he was old, he had lost his trainer Emanuel Steward, who died in 2012.

Steward had always been able to motivate Klitschko to throw punches, but once he died, that motivating force wasn’t there. He wasn’t following the instructions of his trainer, Johnathan Banks, in the corner and seemed rudderless.
