Former Boxing Star Johnny Nelson Predicts Controversy in Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk Fight

Former boxing star Johnny Nelson has made a bold prediction ahead of the highly anticipated fight between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk, set to take place in Saudi Arabia on May 18. Nelson, speaking to Sky Sports, revealed that he had a dream about the fight ending in controversy.

In his dream, Nelson saw Tyson Fury looking unhappy, hinting at a controversial decision in the bout. He couldn’t decipher whether Fury won or lost controversially, but he was certain that controversy would surround the fight.

Nelson also pointed out that Fury may struggle to get into Usyk’s head, unlike his previous opponents. Usyk’s calm demeanor and ability to stay unfazed by Fury’s antics could pose a challenge for the Gypsy King.

Despite Fury’s plans for multiple fights after facing Usyk, Nelson believes that a knockout could change everything for the British boxer. If Fury were to suffer a knockout defeat like Francis Ngannou, Nelson speculates that Fury’s pride as a fighter may lead him to consider retirement.

With both fighters capable of delivering knockout blows, the outcome of the Fury-Usyk fight remains uncertain. Nelson emphasized the importance of speed over power in the heavyweight division, suggesting that either fighter could be knocked out in the ring.

As the boxing world eagerly awaits the showdown between Fury and Usyk, Nelson’s prediction of controversy adds an extra layer of intrigue to what promises to be a thrilling encounter between two of the sport’s top talents.
