a struggle for fame and honor

"I will add a lot of pain to him. I will really take this guy in the shortage!" Said Fury at the last press conference. The otherwise sociable “Gypsy King” has put his humor and is determined to seriously fight this time. The atmosphere is tense, the two boxers face each other in an intense opaque duel that lasted over eleven minutes. A truly bizarre moment that only increases the anticipation for the fight!

USYK, which is slightly smaller with 190 cm and a range of 197 cm than Fury (206 cm, 216 cm range), remains calm and relaxed. "Now only the performance counts. The conversations are over," says the Ukrainian and shows that he is ready to give everything to defend his title.

The decisive factors

The fight is not only a duel between the giants, but also a race for the future of both fighters. Fury, who has been unbeaten in his five rematches so far, has to prove that he has learned from his mistakes. Experts agree: "Fury has to act more aggressively and put Usyk under pressure," explains martial art analyst Luke Thomas. "He has to use his body's pests more precisely, because Usyk has his weaknesses."

The meaning of this struggle could not be greater. A victory for Fury could catapult him into the elite of heavyweight boxers, while Usyk could consolidate his place in the history books with another triumph. "It is a fight that is infinitely profitable for both," said commentator Sean Wheelock. "Anyone who takes control of the fight will probably emerge as the winner."

The WBC and WBO titles are at stake while the IBF USYK withdrawn the title because he did not want to compete against his compulsory opponent. The tension increases and the boxing fans can hardly wait until the first blows fall!
