Briton Tyson Fury has promised that the upcoming rematch against Oleksandr Usyk will see him step into destroy mode, with a knockout victory firmly in his sights. Fury who will be facing the heavyweight champion for the second time following a closely contested May bout feels that the pressure is off and that this is the perfect time for him to let loose and showcase the full extent of his capabilities in the ring.
In their first encounter Fury, dubbed the Gypsy King had several moments where he dominated the Ukrainian-born boxer but ultimately failed to seal a decisive victory, leaving fans and pundits alike wondering what the outcome might have been had he adopted a more aggressive approach. The narrow margin between the two fighters has undoubtedly created an air of anticipation around the rematch, and Fury is determined to put on a show.
Usyk on the other hand will be looking to build on his last performance where his slick movement and pinpoint accuracy seemed to ruffle the normally composed Fury, exploiting defensive lapses that his detractors had frequently highlighted. He now holds the unique distinction of having simultaneously held world championships in the cruiserweight and heavyweight divisions, with his sights firmly set on reigning supreme at the pinnacle of world boxing.
One thing is for sure - only one fighter will be able to claim victory when Fury and Usyk meet again. Will Fury finally live up to the promise he has shown throughout his illustrious career by dominating Usyk and landing the knockout blow he has been craving? Or will Usyk be able to outmaneuver and outsmart his rival once again, further solidifying his position as the world's top heavyweight? Only time will tell.
