Tyson Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs) has no major changes planned for his style ahead of his rematch with Oleksandr Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs).
"The thing is, I'm a very well-trained heavyweight boxer. I know it all from the inside out. It seemed so easy to beat Usyk by moving forward behind the double guard like Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois did. These are big, strong guys who attack from behind the double block and knockout. However, it didn't work out for them with Usyk."
"My style - slippery, straight punches, lots of movement, in and out from the middle distance - why should I give that up to do what Joshua and Dubois did? It doesn't make sense, I'm not doing it. All I need to do before the rematch to win is small, tiny tweaks, meaning less clowning around, less hands behind my back and having fun. More focus, just a more serious version of who I was in the first fight."
"Usyk asked me what my plan was for the rematch and I said, 'No change, man.' It was an even fight, they gave you the win, great. I'm going to do the same thing, box from a distance with a nice, long straight left, I'm going to outbox him, outwork him as much as I can, throw punches to the body, to the head, duck and feint. But instead of showing off, I'm going to focus a little bit more. I know Usyk can shock me, and I'll just be more focused. That should be enough to get the job done. It's simple," "Gypsy King" concluded.
