J OPP attire leaves Tyson Fury’s training camp after reportedly sparring just five rounds [Applause] Together welcome back to pro boxing fans now today we’re going to talk about a fight that is coming up the biggest heavyweight fight arguably in 25 years that is Tyson Fury against Alexander usk February 17th in Saudi Arabia that fight is just 3 weeks away on Saturday that is

That is coming up quick and fury of course has been trying to get some good sparring partners in to replicate the tricky Southpaw star of Alexander usyk now one guy who was in training camp was the ibf Cruiserweight Champion J payre who I believe is on the undercard of

Fury usyk and he’s going to rematch Maris bradus now there was a lot of intrigue and ex excitement online when it was announced that Opti would be helping Fury in Camp he’s seen as potentially the closest replica to that of usyk style he’s a powerful Southpaw

He’s got angles and as he’s proven in the last few fights that he is a big problem in the cruiserweight Division and potentially one day might move up to heavyweight now it was reported on Sunday that opati had left Fury’s training camp now Australian media reported on Sunday that Opti had flown

Back to Australia after spending some time Furious training camp in Saudi Arabia and apparently they’d only sparred five rounds together the reason given was the Opti couldn’t get enough Orthodox sparring for this fight with bradus obviously bradus is orthodox Fury can switch stances but you know he doesn’t have the dimensions that bradis

Has obviously and Fury’s only got southp sparring in there from from what we understand and then there was some rumors on social media that the reason Opti was leaving early was because he dropped Fury in sparring now this is not unheard of these rumors going around close to big fights about what’s

Happened in sparring but it caused a bit of a stir online because people expected him to be there for longer he’s like I said potentially the closest replica to to usk so people did expect him to be there a bit longer so those rumors were flying about let’s not forget Fury was

Dropped against France’s in ganu in his last fight in October but this was swiftly denied by optiz coomo Tasman fighters of course Opti with Eddie hn match from boxing and he’s co-promoted by Tasman and they said in a statement g p has recently returned from Saudi Arabia where he sparred and

Trained with Tyson Fury they were fantastic competitive rounds and an incredible experience for Jo however any talk of either boxer being dropped is not true Dr is now back in Australia finalizing his preparation to defend his world title and cannot wait to do so in Saudi Arabia so that is the statement

From Tasman Fighters completely denying these suggestions that Fury was dropped by otire in sparring now even if he was dropped how how much of that is relevant we have to believe them at face value they’re the guys who have been in the camp presumably and they’re saying not

True but even if there is some truth to these rumors how much of that really matters heading into the fight I mean sparring like they always say is completely different to being in the ring with someone upper Tire as much as he is similar to usk they’re not the

Same fighs and how much would that really affect the fight performance you know it’s completely different sparring when you’re when you’re you know behind closed doors there’s only a couple people watching to when you’re fighting for the Undisputed Heavyweight Championship the pressures a completely different level you’re in front of a

Full house and millions watching on TV and and the whole world will be watching that fight casual fans will be watching that another thing you’ve got to take into consideration as well is that a lot of Fighters will Spar each other before fights you know they might have sparred

Done several training camps together and then fought each other years later I mean even in the amateur game you remember when dillian white dropped Joshua in sparring when they fought in the professionals Joshua stopped him so not saying it’s completely irrelevant because you know Ricky hatton’s gone on

Record to say before the Manny Pacquiao fight he was dropped in sparring and at that point he knew that he wasn’t going to win the fight so mentally it can affect Fighters but for me it’s a completely different situation I think the main thing is you know Fury isn’t

Injured from you know there’s been no rumors about that and that’s that’s the main thing that matters but they are denying it there’s a picture of Titan and Fury’s training camp a bunch of people in the photo Like Sugar Hill his BR brother Shane Isaac low and what

Seems to be three sparring partners who are Moses atoma who is the rising heavyweight Prospect a lot of people see him as the future of of British boxing you’ve got Kevin Lena who’s a former World title Challenger he challenged Daniel du if you remember that was on

The fury chora card at Tottenham and there’s an undefeated Canadian heavyweight called Alexis barrier hopefully I’ve pronounced that right but these are all southpaws all in Camp and it’s as well is a is a great sparring partner for Fury so we don’t know like I say what what’s been happening in Camp

But it seems to be that Fury is getting the work in that he needs there was a lot of rumors going around that Fury didn’t prepare properly for for France Z ganu but he seems to have got his head down for this one and who knows what he

Took from sparring G atti maybe he’s taken a lot from that opper tire Spar and and that was all that was needed like we say Maris brus isn’t a Southport isn’t going to be you know Tyson Fury isn’t going to be great sparring for otire in terms of preparing him for for

Maris bradus but obviously that is brilliant experience for him so let me know what you think in the comments there’s been no comment from Tyson Fury himself or you know his promoters Frank Warren or Bob arum yet but I’m sure this will be a topic of debate and

Conversation as we lead up to February 17th in Saudi Arabia and also let me know in the comments who do you think is a more difficult task in preparing for each other Tyson Fury trying to get in the right sparring partners for a tricky awkward South like usyk who moves he he

Floats in and out he uses his angles really well or is it usyk who has to try and find sparring partners to replicate a 6’9 fighter who can move and switch who has power so let me know who who do you think has the more difficult job in

Preparing for this fight but stay tuned right here to pro boxing fans we have much more coverage on Fury against usk as we lead up to the Undisputed heavyweight title fight thanks for listening thanks for watching and we’ll see you on the next one
