“Hats off to Fury because he is special, six-nine that athletic. The way he thinks the way Fury thinks I’m gonna get this c**p done no matter what. He figures it out that’s the thing about Fury so that’s why I say I believe it’s gonna be a possible split decision win for Usyk it could be a disqualification.” He told the reporter.
Cunningham then went to explain the reason why Fury would get disqualified. He stated the officials would not allow Fury to use his dirty boxing to his advantage unlike many times in the past. “I don’t think they’re going to allow Fury to do what he does, you know, and that’s how you’re getting those wins. It’s like I said. It’s a good tactic, it’s rough fighting. It’s borderline illegal. You can get called on it.” He added.
This fight has the potential to be the biggest fight in boxing. It’s now only a matter of time before the two Titans collide in a super fight.
