When Tyson Fury said Oleksandr Usyk didn’t surprise him or particularly trouble him to fight back in May. It doesn’t matter whether you believe him or not. What really matters is that Tyson Fury decided to say it more than once. And in speaking he would believe it
Whatever the rest of us can do is neither here nor there. We only watched the fight, all we saw was Usyk hurting and nearly stopping Fury in the ninth round before settling for a reasonably comfortable points victory. Here is our view of events. And of course it is agreed upon and almost universal. But that doesn’t mean Fury said or believed what he said was wrong either. That person is him. feeling fight; Don’t just watch it. He has an understanding unmatched by those of us outside the ropes. An insight into even Oleksandr Usyk, the man he shares the ring with. There will be no information before the match on December 21st.
When asked yesterday, Was there anything that surprised him about Usyk in May? Speaking on TNT Sports, Fury said: “To be honest. As I have always been It was actually easier than I thought. I listened to Tony Bellew and I listened to AJ (Anthony Joshua) and they said this guy was hard to get to. He’s The Matrix, so I thought this guy was going to hit hard. I expect to miss him terribly. But in reality He hit it much easier than I expected. And it gave me a little satisfaction. Because every time I throw an uppercut to the body or head Or pretend, I will hit him.”
Among the things said at Wednesday’s launch press conference This is one interesting thing. If only because you can feel the confidence. It is also entirely possible that both of these things could be true. That is, it may be true that Fury was badly beaten by Usyk in May. But he emerged from his defeat that night with faith, or at least some knowledge, which he had not previously had. That alone could be the deciding factor when the two heavyweights meet again, because Usyk is no longer a surprise or a mythical creature in Fury’s mind, he’s turned out to be easier to hit than he expected. hold And he was the one who could only gain the advantage and defeat Fury in the end. Because Fury uses his own theory. Too much satisfaction and fun
If that actually happens, any element of it, Fury should be fine as far as confidence goes on Dec. 21. Ironically, he might have even more confidence going into the rematch with more setbacks. which he had first entered Fighting back when he was unbeaten but his opponent Usyk. It represents the unknown and creates a lot of uncertainty within him.
It is worth noting how the first battle changed. And how does the momentum change? You will remember that it suddenly changed. After a period of time, Fury seemed to calm down. Working on Usyk’s body and looking for routes to take over and back off. It changed as he began to relax, feeling better about himself. Perhaps it started as he was moving forward with a slight satisfaction.
In other words If you heard the story of Fury’s fight and believed what he said. There was enough evidence to convince yourself that neither you nor Fury were mad at each other. In the same way There’s enough proof, both in how Usyk turned the fight around and how Usyk turned it around. all The fight goes around suggesting that the way the fight is less about anger and more about the opponent, meaning, although it might be true that Fury found Usyk easier to hit than expected. And while it may be true that he found the battle easier than expected, But what might ultimately surprise him is how Oleksandr Usyk is still able to do it. Something he did with every opponent he faced in his 22-0 career, not knowing what to do. Without seeing it coming Without even knowing
