Usyk became the first undisputed heavyweight champion in over 20 years when he beat Fury by split decision in May. The fight was close, but Usyk sealed the deal with a ninth-round knockdown. He walked away with the WBC, WBA, and WBO belts.
Now, as the rematch gets closer, Usyk has shown off his impressive build on social media. Fans quickly noticed and shared their thoughts.
"Damn, the neck on Usyk. That's why he's got such a great chin."
Another fan commented:
"He looks huge. That left hand is going to maul Fury."
Some fans poked fun at Fury, who Usyk calls "greedy belly":
"No greedy belly here!"
Usyk's weight has been a topic of interest. He hit a career-high 223.5lbs for the last Fury fight, up from his usual 221lbs. One fan thinks he might go lighter this time:
"Looks closer to 230 here. Hopefully he sheds about 5 more pounds. No need to change anything."
Boxing legend Roy Jones Jr. has weighed in with his thoughts on the rematch. With two weeks to go, both fighters will be fine-tuning their strategies for what's sure to be another close contest.
