    Remember how adamant Eddie was that all other boxers should step aside to allow the Fury/Joshua undisputed fight happen.

    USyk has a move for every Joshua's move. USyk has his number.

    Citing Holmes over Ali is comical. Really. Ali was a zombie, showing sings of Parkinson's, and on a thyroid medication that rendered him unfit for any athletic competition.

    Klitschko may not hav been at his best, but it was light years head.

    Also, both Holmes and Ali were no longer champion at the time, so neither works.

    You missed the point. Wlad is not in Furys era, just like Ali wasnt in Holmes.or Holmes in Tysons.

    No, you missed MY point. Fury beting Wlad is qualitatively different than your similar examples. He gets a lot more historical status from beating a long-reigning champion TO END HIS REIGN.

    His strategy is to go kamikadze on Usyk

    So does Wlad also get more historical status than Ali or Holmes for being able to do what they could not, that is being a long-reigning champion?

    Ali and Holmes were not long-reigning? Not sure I get your meaning.

    I'm 100% sure this is another terrible translation and this isnt close to what Usyk really said. Give us a source.

    AJ was confident he'd win the first fight, so was Hearn and so were all the AJ fans.

    AJs confidence was short lived, it lasted about 10 seconds then a straight left hand knocked his head back and his eyes widened.. at that point he knew he'd f'ed up.

    AJ won't say anything else but he is confident in a rematch, what do you think he would say?

    Has there ever been a beaten fighter going in to a rematch saying "I'm going to get beat again"?


    It's heavyweight boxing, anything can happen but most AJ fans I've spoken to are now saying Usyk is just a terrible style for him, every fighter has a bogey man, AJ still beats Wilder and Fury blah blah blah

    Deep down They don't believe AJ beats Usyk in a rematch and right now neither does AJ, that's why he is running around looking for a new trainer, if it was as simple as strategy then he'd be in the gym with McCracken getting everything in place.

    He's not wrong.he's more than skilled enough to give a lumbering giant like fury serious problems.

    Usyk's humility and sheer dedication will take him to the greatest of heights I feel. If any man is going to beat Fury, it'll be him.

    I want to see Ushock beat the bodybuilder again first.
