Rumored Usyk vs Fury III - April 2026 - Riyadh

Why does Tyson Fury deserve another crack at Usyk? There is no unfinished business in this fight as Usyk won two clear decisions. I am personally not that interested. If Usyk beats DDD and wants to fight another, there are more worthy contenders.

If Fury is serious about fighting then maybe fight Zhang, Hrgovic.
 
Great. If there is one thing boxing needs, it's more pointless fights.
 
November 2026 - Usyk vs. Joshua III
June 2027 - Usyk vs. Dubois III

He'll fight them all 9x combined before GTA 6 comes out.
 
After Dubois, Usyk will have fought 3x in 14 months.
And he'll be 39.
No need for a trilogy when he won 2, the 2nd one even more convincingly.
Let the dude take a rest before fighting Kabayel or re-capture the CW vs Opetaia.
And then ride into the sunset.
 
One of the reasons I loathe Fury out of the ring...this attention whore can't stand it that Usyk-Dubois 2 is going down and no one gives a shit about him after going 0-2 vs the champion. The timing of him coming out of retirement is obvious.
 
What’s up with the whole Jai vs Benavidez situation thought. Seems like Benavidez just wants anything to fight him doesn’t matter who. But Jai may be a fish too big, that guy is a monster. Obviously Jai trashes Zurdo. The Benavidez fight would be fun but Jai is too strong.


Jai vs Usyk at a catch weight would indeed be legendary. Usyk vs Fury 3 is simply not that interesting to me.

I'm interested to see if Zurdo's chin can take Jai's power...if he can, I still haven't forgotten how vulnerable (Jai) he looked late in that Breidis rematch, he lost the last 3 rounds and got his nose busted. Zurdo has shown he can grind down stronger, more athletic opponents. Bivol can box and move for 12 rounds with no decline, but outside of that from Joe Smith Jr. to Dorticos he has been in with bigger stronger opponents who couldn't stand up to him in his cruiserweight run.

That said Jai is the obvious favorite here based on being the puncher, being faster on the feet and youth , but I wouldn't discount Ramirez completely, his career opposition overall has been tougher than Opetaia imo. Outside of Breidis who knows how he matches up with another top fighter? I want t see it though and for the WBC to get the whole , interim, in recess BS cleared up so there can be another undisputed champ soon.
 
Turki lost his mind if he's spending crazy money again on that fight. It doesn't get more odd than this.

I don't want to see a third... but the first fight was a toss up (split decision).... the 2nd fight was somewhat close.
 
Pointless really, what can Fury do differently he didn't do in 24 rounds. Fury's had a top career, and done so much better than I ever thought, and I watched his pro debut and subsequent fights. My money is that this doesn't happen, and should DDD flatline him, then this fight absolutely doesn't happen. Tyson just keeping himself relevant, but had he not acted the clown in the first fight, he could have won it, all on him to be fair.
 
Timestamped something from Usyk.
Usyk does NOT like Fury.

(7:30 if stamp isn't working).

Given Usyk's demeanour, I shan't call it bad blood but it seems Tyson has made a shitty choice.

Who is the guy in question?

Sounds like:

I didn't know that Fury supported Kremlev. The latter is a convicted criminal that's been the IBA's (formerly AIBA) president for the last 5 years. He's one of the main reasons why the IOC (Olympics) don't recognize the IBA anymore.

Glad to hear that Usyk thinks Fury is crazy for announcing a trilogy between the two next year. Usyk doesn't sound like he's that supportive of the idea. That's good because it doesn't need to happen. Lastly, the Krassyuk situation isn't as bad as some thought. Usyk says he still works with him in other capacities just not in boxing anymore. Interesting.
