Chisora on Fury and Usyk`s Power Dynamics

Chisora on Fury and Usyk`s Power Dynamics


Derek Chisora has provided his perspective on the punching power of heavyweight champions Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk, having faced both fighters in the ring. As he prepares for his 49th professional fight against Otto Wallin on February 8 at Co-Op Live in Manchester, Chisora remarked that neither Fury nor Usyk possesses significant knockout power. His experience includes three bouts with Fury, all resulting in losses, and a points defeat to Usyk in 2020. Chisora's insights come at a time when Fury is contemplating a return to the ring to face Anthony Joshua after suffering two defeats to Usyk in 2024. Notably, Usyk came closest to knocking out Fury in their first encounter, underscoring the technical nature of their fights.

In other boxing news, Roy Jones Jr. has weighed in on a potential matchup between Terence Crawford and Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez. Despite the weight disparity, with Canelo fighting at super-middleweight and Crawford at super-welterweight, Jones believes Crawford could have a chance if he can withstand Canelo's power. Canelo is currently exploring options for a May return, with IBF Super-middleweight champion William Scull as a possible opponent.

Deontay Wilder is set to make his comeback in April on a BLK Prime card after a challenging period following back-to-back losses. His coach, Malik Scott, emphasized the importance of this fight for Wilder's career, indicating that it will serve as a tune-up to help him regain his knockout form. Scott noted that every fight now holds significant weight in the latter half of Wilder's career.

Oleksandr Usyk has also shared his thoughts on a hypothetical fight between Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua, suggesting that Wilder would have a 60% chance of victory if both fighters were at their best. Usyk praised Wilder's unique punching ability, which could pose a threat to Joshua. However, a matchup between Wilder and Joshua seems unlikely, as Joshua is more inclined to pursue a fight with Tyson Fury.

Vasiliy Lomachenko's future remains uncertain, with fellow lightweight champion Shakur Stevenson urging him to consider retirement. Stevenson expressed disappointment in Lomachenko's recent actions, suggesting he is not interested in high-profile fights. Lomachenko, the current IBF lightweight champion, has not announced any plans since his victory over George Kambosos Jr. in May. Stevenson is focused on defending his title against Floyd Schofield in February and is eyeing a potential clash with Gervonta Davis.
