Fury, 35, sat down with Charlie Parsons and had a candid response when asked about his prediction for the upcoming fight. Not only did Usyk have a little experience at heavyweight, but he also hadn’t impressed Fury with his outings to the square circle. Fury said, “He’s only had two or three fights at heavyweight. And to be honest, I haven’t been that impressed with him.”

“He [Oleksandr Usyk] does what he’s got to do; he has got his wins, been paid. He gets the job done, and he goes home. So that’s what it is about,” Fury continued.
The Manchester Native believes Usyk, at 21-0, didn’t have what it takes to defeat him. “Is he good enough to beat the Gypsy King? I don’t think so, but good luck to him. If he is, I’ll shake his hand. If he is not, again, I roll on to another one… I’ll take him out inside seven rounds,” he added.
But what happens when they do fight and produce a memorable night? Will they follow up with a rematch? Fury lifts veils from what awaits him.

“Listen, I only take one fight at a time. I could get brain damage and die in the first Usyk fight, so you can’t walk past any fights. You know what I mean. Might get run over by a train, who knows by that time. But one fight at a time,” Fury admitted. He also didn’t rule out hanging up his gloves for good.
“You say how you feel afterward. If you are good and fit and ready and healthy and injury free then you go again. If not, call it quits,” Fury declared. While it is rumored that Usyk and Fury have a rematch clause, it’s not sure whether either of them will trigger it. It all depends on the beating they will receive and how closely they lose a fight.
