The highly anticipated rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury is set to go down this weekend. Fury is heading into the fight looking to avenge the first loss of his professional career.
When the pair met earlier this year, with Usyk's three heavyweight titles on the line, it was the Ukrainian who emerged on top with a split decision.
It is a fight that has split sporting opinions on who will come out as the victor on Saturday. That said, let’s take a look at predictions from Roy Jones Jr. and Mike Tyson below (via DAZN):
Roy Jones Jr, multi-time champion
“Well it’s a very tough predicament for both of them. You never really can tell how things are going to shape out. But to me, Fury is one of the best guys at coming back and making adjustments.If he goes out there and is methodical and does everything Usyk does, he’ll beat him again.”
Mike Tyson, boxing heavyweight legend
“Usyk is the best heavyweight in the world at the moment. But I’m going for Fury to beat him.
"Why? Because I’m a fan. Because his father gave him my name. I’m not abandoning him now.”
