TYSON FURY has been brutally told how to avoid a “12-round disaster” against Oleksandr Usyk.
The Gypsy King has not stepped in the ring since defeating Derek Chisora on December 3 last year.
Tyson Fury has been told he could be in for a nightmare versus Oleksandr Usyk
Oleksandr Usyk could face Tyson Fury in a super-fight
Fury could return in a super-fight for four belts against Usyk at the end of this year.
There are also rumours he could be involved in a bout over the summer.
Carl Froch thinks Fury is setting himself up for defeat if he isn’t maintaining a high standard of training.
Froch told talkSPORT: “If he gets too out of shape and he’s out of the ring for too long, it gets past the point of no return.
“All of a sudden he’s gonna find himself in a hard fight against somebody who’s bang average.
“I think Fury would be too big for Usyk, but it’s gotta be an on-point Fury, it’s gotta be a Fury that’s 100 per cent on his game and fit for 12 rounds.
“If Usyk decides to stay out of range and box and not engage, just jab his stomach and jab his arms and jab his chest, then take what he can when he’s in range – that could be a 12-round disaster for Fury.
“I’m not so sure he jumps straight with him and that may be the reason why he priced himself out of it, because I think he did price himself out.”
There has been speculation that the delay in the proposed bout is due to a financial disagreement over a rematch.
Usyk last fought versus Anthony Joshua in August last year.
