The rematch between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk is just a few weeks away.
Fury and Usyk first did battle in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia back in May to crown the first undisputed heavyweight champion in over 20 years.
It was a close contest, but a dominant round nine from Usyk which saw the referee administer a count to Fury was enough to make the difference, as the Ukrainian picked up a split decision win and walked away with all four world title belts.
Usyk has since had to vacate the IBF title in order to fulfil the rematch against Fury, which once again takes place in Saudi Arabia on December 21.
Ahead of the bout, boxing legend Roy Jones Jr has been talking about where it could be won and lost, telling Boxing Unleashed about the one thing that now concerns him for the Brit.
“It’s a tough fight. I really like both fighters. I think Tyson is good at making adjustments and I’m hoping he can make the right adjustments this time so we can get a third fight.
“At the same time I do worry because Usyk learned that he can hurt Fury and that’s a bad thing for him to learn as now it can work for him or against him.
“If he’s just trying to knock him out, Tyson will beat him for sure, whereas if he takes his time and methodically sets him up, it could be very problematic for Fury. I do like Fury in rematches so we’ll see.”
Jones Jr isn’t the only big name to offer their thoughts for the rematch, with Tony Bellew making a U-turn and changing his prediction.
