Who is going to win this rematch? The bout, brimming with animosity, is ready to sway the fans when Oleksandr Usyk takes on Tyson Fury to hang on to his gold straps and secure his legacy. But who is going to win it? The pros already have taken their sides, and let’s have a look at who is backing up whom.
When Fury, 36, and Usyk, 37, met in May, the Ukrainian fighter emerged the victor with his technical prowess after decoding the British boxer’s boxing style. This resulted in him bagging a split decision win and clinching the undisputed heavyweight crown. While the IBF title landed in Daniel Dubois‘ hands after the IBF’s stripping spree, Usyk is ready to defend the rest of the gold marbles. Can he do it?
Ryan Garcia is banking his faith in the ‘Gypsy King’ and expects the former champion to come back stronger and set up a trilogy fight in 2025. He said, “My prediction is that FURY TAKES THE VICTORY AND they set up for a HUGE TRILOGY.”

Joseph Parker, whose friendship with Fury is very well-known, also expects similar results. The New Zealander explained his decision based on Fury’s newer, more aggressive mindset. He also pointed out how Usyk’s foot movement and feints would force the fight to go to the distance.
Parker declared, “Tough one to call but I’m team Fury all day. Hes been working hard and minset different coming into this rematch… Let’s go Tyson.” The same sentiment prevailed among Fury’s compatriots, such as Ricky Hatton and Leigh Wood, and both went with a points win for Fury.

Meanwhile, the other heavyweights, such as Zhilei Zhang and Dillian Whyte, picked up Usyk to defend his crown and continue the winning streak. Canelo Alvarez found himself in the same group, as he declared, “Usyk.” However, Gervonta Davis had a peculiar response.
What’s your perspective on:
Can Usyk outsmart Fury again, or will the 'Gypsy King' reclaim his throne this time?
