Three time’s heavyweight champion Michael Moorer who is a guest at the WBC’s Convention in Hamburg, is giving his expert and insightful view about the Usyk Vs Fury rematch.
Michael who was the first ever southpaw heavyweight champion and prior to this was light heavyweight champion said:
“It should be interesting because of the height and reach plus the offensive skills they have.
“Mistakes will be corrected. Sugar Hill
who was tutored by Emanuel Steward at Kronk Gym is Fury’s trainer, so they are going to be ready, but Usyk is an overall better fighter. He puts in the time and the work. Not to say that Fury doesn’t do this. It’s just my perception, of how things go.
“I just hope it’s an exciting fight that everyone can be all geeked about it, like they were with the Nike Tyson Vs Jake Paul.”
Viz Fury’s four knockdown in the three fights with Deontay Wikder, Michael Moorer says it happens:
“I don’t know if it’s affected him. Anyone can get hit and anyone can go down. If takes a complete fighter to get up and win the fight, so you never know how it goes.
“Every fight is different. Oleksandr has the boxing tutorledge under him. He’s a puncher and a crafty guy.
“Tyson Fury uses his height and reach to his advantage. But he also has skills and he’s a powerful puncher. They are both excellent fighters and hopefully they give the fans what they deserve.”
Towards the end of their first fight Usyk was forcing the pace. Michael explains:
“Oleksandr was forcing the fight because he felt something. As a fighter you feel something in the ring which gives you a little edge. He landed a shot, hurt him and he knew it.
“People talk about it and say things about so many other fights, but it never turns out to be the fight that everybody expects it to be.
“Tyson Fury doesn’t like to lose and if he loses he comes back and wins. On the other hand, you have a guy who wins and hasn’t lost yet. He doesn’t know how to lose. He has the mentality of being a winner and always being the smart and complete fighter.”’
