    Fury would talk about how the ten boxes of donuts were midget in size and how he could easily do it. Then he'd ask for ten million per box and go on to eat a thirty-nine year old Donut hole with a 33-12 record.

    Usyk is actually very well known and respected in UK. Fans in UK generally like Usyk and want to see him fight against Fury and Joyce.

    Uh dude…. If AJ is an irrelevant “fake champion” bum…. Then what exactly are Usyks accomplishments as a heavyweight?

    I disagree with you about everyone you mentioned, yet I do think Usyk is great….but there’s clearly a gaping hole in your logic here.

    Usyk isn`t that well known in the UK aside from hardcore boxing fans, the first time he got real exposure to fans in the UK was his first fight v AJ, nobody in the UK knew much about him before that, his fight v Belew didn`t draw big viewing figures.

    I only heard the version that Usyk came to punish the heavy category, because it is weak.

    Usyk Bellew did between 500,000 and 600,000 PPV buys in the UK.

    "dethroning the most fake ass champion ever"
    :lol: Ya´ll are some daft mother ****ers.
    Joshua always aimed to compete at the highest levels. He went to the Olympics. Took a fight with Whyte, who had beaten him in the amateurs.
    He got a title as soon as possible. He fought Wlad who just lost his titles. Fought Parker to unify. Tried to make a fight with Wilder, who later admitted to picking Fury of Joshua.
    Had an immediate rematch with Ruiz, after many claimed he quit that night. Heck, I still remember how a lot of people here were adamant that Joshua would not take the rematch and that how he was forced to take it.
    Then he fought Usyk. And had an immediate rematch. Again, a lot of people said Joshua was scared to take the rematch. And when it was finally signed, others claimed that Joshua was forced into it.

    Why is it that boxing fans hate boxers who truly compete at the highest levels? Whats the ****ing deal? I get his personality is trash, but so what? At least he fights the fights that matter. At least he tried to get to the very top.

    AJ fights are the most watched fights in UK. The fact he fought AJ twice means a lot of British fans know who he is.

    OP clearly has a massive chip on his shoulder. Usyk is plenty liked globally.

    That doesn`t mean Usyk was known to casuals, Bellew was popular in the UK and that`s why that fight did those numbers.

    You said it he beat a fake champion at HW. So he hasn't done anything at the weight.

    - Boring fight with never was Witherspoon
    - Draw vs Chisora
    - Beats fake champion twice

    I'm waiting for something like the ludicrous " loaded gloves' deal ,that ruined Margarito's career, to pop up against Usyk. A similar situation has arisen. He is a champion with 3 belts & no top HW wants to fight him, because they know they cannot beat him. but he's got to be removed. See if I'm not right !!!!!!!!!!!
