    I can totally see the resemblance and know that this statement is in no way a shameless double name dropping pandering act on his part.

    I mean one guy floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee with numerous title defenses while the other is giant gypsy that has never defended a title and once punched himself in the face, they’re practically twins.

    If you've ever boxed yourself and never punched yourself accidently you ain't trying hard enough.

    Not really.

    Ali's stand out quality was his toughness mentally and physically, you'd have to kill him to stop him. Fury holds that same rare quality.

    Maybe he would say something like that about Usyk. same height, same reach, same birthday date, similar speed, movements...

    I can remember being routinely laughed at for drawing this parallel a decade or so back. Now it's commonplace. That's a prophecy.

    Fury absolutely exhibits similar qualities to Ali.

    The Ali cultists believe there can never be anyone who embodies the same qualities to as high a level but realistically that's nonsense.

    In a H2H Fury would probably spark out Ali tbqhwy.

    also Fury seems to have brushed his homophobic rant and cocaine use under the carpet
