The ‘Gypsy King’ was knocked down against Steve Cunningham in his US debut in 2013, before brutally knocking out his opponent in the seventh round.
Fury also tasted the canvas in the first and third fight of his trilogy against hard-hitting American Deontay Wilder. He would go on to draw the first fight despite being knocked down twice, before winning their third fight by eleventh round knockout after being dropped twice in the fourth round.
While those knockdowns added to the mystique of Fury – it was the knock down he experienced in his most recent bout that has some concerned the 35-year-old could be past his best.
He was dropped when he took on professional boxing debutant and former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou in Ocotber of last year.
Fury would ultimately go on to win that fight by split decision – but it was a far from convincing performance.
Meanwhile, if the 66/1 RequestABet piques your interest – which requires Usyk to win by KO/TKO and Fury to be knocked down in round 8 – let’s take a look at the Ukrainian’s career to date and why that bet could prove good value.
Of Usyk’s 14 career knockout victories – five have come in either round 8 or 9. His most recent bout against Daniel Dubois ended in a round 9 knockout, with the Brit also having been knocked down in round 8.
Meanwhile, if you’re after RequestABets that are fancied by the bookies, a price of 5/4 is available for both fighters to land 125+ punches each, and 2/1 odds for Fury to land 10+ punches in both rounds 1 and 2.
