Shakur Stevenson will give Tyson Fury the chance to defeat one-time heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk on Saturday night in their rematch in Saudi Arabia.

Shakur's Prediction

WBC lightweight champion Stevenson says Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs) will win if he is "in shape" and stays "focused." Shakur gives Fury a 55-45 chance to defeat WBA, WBC, and WBO champion Usyk.

The bearded Fury looks a lot like him, but it's probably not that different. He looked like that the last time he fought Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs) on May 18, and lost the fight in a 12-round split decision.

Fury's problem is not his reassurance. By him glass jaw from his three fights against Deontay Wilder. Unable to throw back, Usyk showed that weakness on Saturday, just as he did in his previous fight when he was on his feet in the ninth round in Riyadh.

Usyk is awesome tho bro it's really hard to fight him in a 12 round fight.. I'm like 55-45 Fury on this one.. All Fury has to do is look good and focus for the whole fight! !

The Force of Destruction?

"I'm looking forward to the fight and I'm going to win, it's going to hurt, it's going to be bad," said Tyson Fury Queensberry promotionindicating a victory over Oleksandr Usyk. "I landed on my own terms. They said I couldn't come, and then SugarHill (Steward) and I got together, and I became a bad killer and started knocking everyone out.

Fury's opponents have slipped since partnering with SugarHill Steward in December 2019 and nothing special. Since then, Fury has knocked out two British heavyweight champions, and Deontay Wilder, an unbeaten fighter in the world, was able to win his WBC world title by defeating the rival.

– Derek Chisora: *Manuere
– Dillian Whyte: Same
– Deontay Wilder x 2

If Fury knocked out some of the best heavyweights, like Martin Bakole or Daniel Dubois, then you could say that SugarHill turned him into a "bad fight," but he threw three punches.

Decide the fall

"He won this fight by one point that time, by round," Fury said of Usyk. “If it was one of the other rounds, I would have received one of those rounds from one to twelve. If the rounds are the same as the rounds I won and lost, then there will be a draw,” said Fury, trying to make up his mind.

"If I would have had more rounds and I wouldn't have gotten 10-8, I would have won."
