JAKARTA There are only about a month left from day H of the fight against Oleksandr Usyk, Tyson Fury, talking about his chances. The Usyk vs Fury duel, which is a fight for the true heavyweight title, will be held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on May 18, 2024.
Fury (35) emphasized that the difference in his posture with Usyk (37) will be a determining factor. Fury's 206 cm posture is indeed much more towering than Usyk, 191. On paper, this physical advantage is definitely very profitable for Fury.
Usyk was unable to do much against older Derek Chisora. I think the game was a draw. But if Derek were two or three years younger, the results would definitely be different. The posture factor will be the determinant in the fight later," Fury said as quoted by Fightnews.
Fury also did not consider the presence of a former true heavyweight world champion from Ukraine, Wladimir Klitschko in the Usyk camp. Klitschko, who became an advisor to Usyk as a fellow Ukrainian boxer, was defeated by Fury in 2015.

"How is it possible for my old friend, Wlad will provide direction and advice to Usyk? He himself lost when you competed. Wlad's advice won't be much use to Usyk," Fury said again.
Olekasandr Usyk vs Tyson Fury will be the duel for the first true heavyweight world title since 1999. At that time Lennox Lewis won points over Evander Holyfield, in a duel in Las Vegas on November 13, 1999.
