"It'll be the end of his career": former world champion tells how Fury can beat Usyk in a rematch

Former world middleweight champion Carl Froch expressed confidence that the second defeat of Tyson Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs) by Oleksandr Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs) will force the Gypsy King to end his career. At the same time, the British fighter will have a chance to win in a rematch with the Ukrainian, as it is a super-heavyweight fight.

Froch expressed this opinion in an interview with talkSport. According to the former boxer, his compatriot should be heavier in the rematch with Usyk than he was in the first fight, when Tyson outweighed him by almost 119 kg. At the same time, Carl doubts that Fury will be ready for 12 rounds of active work.

"If he loses this fight, it will probably be the end of his professional boxing career, unless he's interested in fighting Anthony Joshua in 2025. This is heavyweight boxing, so Tyson will always have a chance. Maybe he could weigh a little more. Fury needs to be in top shape. He needs to throw more punches, more consistently, round after round. The problem is that if he starts well, he may run out of steam in the second half of the fight. I don't think he's physically up to 12 rounds," Froch said.

On October 23, Usyk and Fury had their first duel of looks before the second fight. The Ukrainian appeared in an unusual way, changing his image. In addition, he forced his opponent to take an unusual step to help the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

Earlier it became known that Tyson wants to organize a trilogy with Oleksandr to go down in boxing history. The Briton also accused the Ukrainian of disrupting the timing of the rematch.

In the first fight, Oleksandr defeated Tyson by split decision - 114:113, 113:114, 115:112 - and became the absolute world champion.

Our compatriot also shared his expectations for the second fight with Fury and responded to accusations of cheating during the May 18 fight. In addition, the Ukrainian told what he learned from this fight.

The legendary Volodymyr Klychko shared his expectations for the rematch between Usyk and Fury. And ex-champion Amir Khan disagreed with the forecasts for the fighters' second fight.

In turn, Russian boxing coach Andrei Ivichuk called Tyson the winner of the upcoming rematch with Oleksandr. And the Ukrainian named the only boxer he is interested in fighting after the second fight with the Briton.

In addition, Anthony Joshua answered the question of who he would like to see win the rematch between Usyk and Fury. After that, he named the winner of the rematch. Tyson himself voiced his motivation for the second fight against our compatriot.

Fury also responded to Usyk's team members' comparisons to dictator Vladimir Putin.

As reported by OBOZ.UA, the former coach of the Ukrainian boxing team Mykhailo Zavyalov said that Tyson Fury will put his career on the line in a rematch with Oleksandr Usyk. The Briton himself noted that he does not believe in his victory on points in the second fight with the Ukrainian. In turn, Usyk revealed the details of his preparation for the fight.

In addition, it became known who Oleksandr plans to fight after the fight with Tyson. The legendary Mike Tyson gave his prediction for the fight.
