Fury vs Usyk 2 Boxing Predictions & Best Bets

With just over 24 hours to go until his highly anticipated rematch, oddsmakers are hinting that we won’t see a new heavyweight champion. After all, Usyk’s -145 moneyline odds on BetOnline carry an implied win probability of 59.2%, highlighting how Fury likely has an uphill battle on the horizon.

It isn’t surprising that Usyk is the favorite, though, based on the pair’s first encounter. They went the full distance at Kingdom Arena on that May night, resulting in a split-decision win for Usyk as he handed Fury his first-ever professional boxing loss.

Usyk had a slow start during the first encounter between these heavyweight icons, however, he improved as time went on. Once the bout kicked into full gear, the champion had Fury reeling and looking outmatched at moments. Time to tell if Usyk will experience a stronger start this time around.

Usyk is now a perfect 22-0 to begin his boxing career, which includes four victories via some form of decision in his last five fights.

Conversely, it remains to be seen how Fury will respond to his first loss. He’s never been in this position before and it wouldn’t be shocking if his age (36) prevented him from making a full recovery. He couldn’t finish the job when Usyk was vulnerable in the first encounter, so why would this time be any different?

Spoiler alert: it won’t be. Usyk will look even more well-prepared on Saturday, eventually leaving Saudi Arabia with another victory over Fury.

With that being said, back Usyk to win via decision (+185 on SportsBetting) this weekend. Again, the majority of his recent wins came via decision and I see that happening again tomorrow. Even though I’m predicting a loss for Fury, he isn’t a slouch in the ring and should be able to survive the distance.
