Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk

Let's be clear. This is a tuneup fight for Fury.

Makhmudov has earned this shot. He has 19 knockouts in 23 fights and his impressive unanimous decision win over David Allen. The 36-year-old is ranked fifth among heavyweights by the WBA, but isn't ranked in the top 10 by any other governing body.

Of course, Makhmudov is saying that he will win, but even he admits that he doesn't know how that is going to happen.

"I don't know how I will beat [Fury], but of course I believe I will win," he told media. "This guy, he is a legend, one of the best heavyweights in history."

He's right about Fury. He has already cemented his legacy as one of the all-time greats in the division's history. His reputation is not on the line in this fight. His ability to still contend for a title, however, is.

Fury announced his retirement after back-to-back losses to Oleksandr Usyk. There's certainly no shame in losing to the champion. However, a competitive fight against Makhmudov would not build momentum toward another crack at the title.

Makhmudov does have power. However, there's not a lot of nuance to his game. He's a straightforward power puncher who has won fights where his opponent doesn't know how to deal with that.

That's not Fury. He's made his career from combining his size and power with exceptional movement and defense for a heavyweight.

Ultimately, it's Fury's adaptability and defensive acumen that should carry him in this fight. A frustrated Makhmudov is more likely to make mistakes as the fight wears on and Fury should capitalize with a late-fight knockout.
