Code:
if(usr.overlays== /obj/sword)
                            usr.overlays -= /obj/sword_control
                            usr.overlays += /obj/sword_control

User overlays are not going to equal one item, so you have to check if that item would be in your overlays. Like so:
if(locate(/obj/Sword/) in src.overlays)

Then, you wanted to delete an overlay and add a new one. This seems so useless because you check for a sword in your overlays and if it's there, you take another overlay away and add the same type of the overlay you have taken away. But, here goes.
    if(locate(/obj/Sword/) in src.overlays)
        src.overlays.Remove(locate(/obj/sword_control/) in src.overlays)
        sleep(10) //so you can see that it has removed it
        src.overlays.Add(new/obj/sword_control/)

Meaning, you gotta show us more code. Show us the entire porc and the weapons you are dealing with.

Okay, first off, you shouldn't be checking to see if fury is one, because it seems to be a boolean variable. Just use if(src.fury).

Now, you still haven't told me exactly why you're trying to remove sword_control, then add it if there is a sword. I think you might want to add it, then remove it.

mob/verb/Spririt_Control()
    switch(alert("Spirit Control on/off?","Spirit Control","On","Off"))
        if("On")
            if(src.fury) src<<"You are furious already!"
            else
                src.fury=TRUE
                view(6) << "[usr]:<FONT SIZE=-1><font color = teal>[usr.spirit]! Spirit Control!"
                flick("fuse",usr)
                usr.attack += (usr.spirit_attack+src.attack_up*2)
                usr.defense += usr.spirit_defense
                if(locate(/obj/sword/) in src.overlays)
                    var/obj/sword_control/T=new(src.overlays)
                    sleep(10) 
                    src.overlays.Remove(T)
