As NBN reports with reference to TalkSport's material, according to the former European champion, in the super heavyweight division, and now a sports analyst in the field of boxing, Spencer Oliver, Tyson Fury will lose a fight to Alexander Usyk under certain conditions.

Based on Oliver's words, the “Gypsy King” should not gain weight ahead of the rematch, since in this situation, Fury will not be able to return to the same punches that he “punched” in the fight with Vladimir Klitschko in 2015.

In particular, a lot of rumors have been circulating lately – in the upcoming fight, the Briton intends to become much heavier, however, such a decision “will only ruin” him, since he will not be able to intimidate his opponent with his size, – “and all this will only play “to Usyk's advantage.”

The boxing analyst summed it up:

Tyson needs to do what he's good at, like setting traps. Throw that uppercut he used to get his opponent in the 6th round, but first he needs to lure Usyk in. That's what you need to do, not try to intimidate Usyk with more weight.
