๐Ÿšจ Roy Jones Jr makes prediction for Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk rematch

Posted by

Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk are set to collide again on December 21st.

Last month Usyk defeated Fury to add the last remaining heavyweight belt to his collection and cement his place as the undisputed heavyweight champion.

It is unclear whether the rematch will be for undisputed status again but the pair will battle it out in Saudi Arabia once more just before Christmas.

Looking ahead to the clash Roy Jones Jr. gave his assessment on the fight and believes it will be a tough nightโ€™s work at the office again for โ€˜The Gypsy Kingโ€™.

Speaking to Betway the boxing legend said: โ€œI donโ€™t really think that [Fury can win the rematch]. It could happen but right now for me there are two things that happened in that fight. Oleksandr Usyk has found out that he can hurt Tyson Fury.

โ€œHe knew that coming into it, but heโ€™s found out now that he can hurt Fury. The smaller man now knows he can hurt the bigger man. Usyk is favourite for the rematch and now here is the thing โ€“ Tyson Fury is a very smart guy and is really good at making adjustments but Usyk in my humble opinion comes through him again.

โ€œBut now that Usyk knows he can hurt and beat Tyson Fury, he could now underestimate him in the rematch. But we all know Fury has been knocked down seven times [in his career].โ€
