“It's going to get worse”. Malik Scott made a prediction on the rematch of Usyk and Fury

Malik Scott, the trainer of former heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder, shared his expectations for the rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury, scheduled for December 21st this year.

"In the first fight between Usyk and Fury, it was very, very difficult to notice their difference in size. You can't just tell Tyson to 'impose yourself on your opponent' – boxing doesn't work like that. The average viewer might say that the bigger boxer should just move forward. But he can fall into a trap – he’s facing Usyk, one of the best at this in boxing.

But Fury can do certain things in the rematch. There was a moment in the first fight when I thought: If Tyson continues like this for another round or two, he will win by stoppage. But Usyk has a gift – finding ways to win no matter what. It's the Mayweather effect: whatever you do at an incredible level, he will make your skill look mediocre.

The rematch will be tougher for Fury. Because Tyson can only do two things. He can box and move, but he will have to fight Usyk, who puts pressure on you with his footwork. And if he moves forward, he can fall into traps, like Dubois and Joshua did.

Usyk has a good punch, and he is very, very sharp. He might be one of the most complete boxers along with Crawford. He is not just good at something, but very skilled. He can move forward without taking hits. He knows how to work with his lead hand to set up good punches. He moves excellently. I think the rematch will be tougher for Tyson," said Scott.

By the way, the holder of the WBA, WBC, WBO, and IBO heavyweight titles, Oleksandr Usyk, has named the strongest skills of British boxers he has faced in the ring.
