“Usyk is a good fighter however he’s a cruiserweight. I feel with respect, he’s too small for Tyson and he’s an important fighter however I don’t see how he has the facility to harm Tyson Fury,” mentioned Capetillo. “I feel Tyson is a robust fighter, very large and has an important ring IQ for boxing. Let’s keep in mind, Tyson Fury is the man who can swap, field in southpaw stance, the orthodox method and that’s a fighter who has plenty of expertise and abilities within the IQ. I don’t assume Usyk has something to do with Fury within the ring.”
On Fury vs Ngannou, Capetillo added:
“That’s a giant battle, an enormous battle and could be very entertaining. Similar to Tyson was saying, he was tipping his hat off to Francis Ngannou as a result of he conquered the UFC heavyweight crown and is a tough punching man. He’s not taking it evenly and like he was saying, ‘If I lose to an MMA man, everyone goes to be laughing at me’ and it’s true.
“For me Fury is one of the best heavyweight on the earth and needs to be primary Pound for Pound with what he executed towards Wilder in his comeback. On his resume, he’s defeated Wladimir Klitschko, he has a giant resume Tyson Fury. It’s a superb battle and followers prefer to see fights like that – one of the best combating one of the best. We will’t sleep on Francis Ngannou, he has plenty of energy.
“He’s not received the vary or the space, it’s a special timing and distance in boxing in comparison with MMA however on the identical time it’s the heavyweight division and we’re a punch away from chaos. For this reason Tyson just isn’t taking the battle evenly, he’s coaching laborious in camp and can placed on a giant present – I feel Tyson will cease him with a late KO.”
