The "Usyk is small" myth

Still hurts that I wasn't there for your graduation, huh? Shake it off, son, I was just trying to teach you life wasn't all sunshine and rainbows.

 

There's a difference between "Usyk is smaller than Fury" and "Usyk is small/just a cruiserweight/middleweight".

Also, lol at the Fury remarks. When Fury wants a fight, he makes that fight. That's it. He is petrified of Usyk and duly outpriced himself at the Saudis, the biggest money bags in all of sports today, even though what the Saudis offered him in the first place would have been by far his biggest pay day ever - roughly three times as much as Fury got for the Whyte fight, his biggest payday to date.

Answer me a simple question, mate (or your fellow Fury fan @Rumsfeld can answer it too). Let's say that there's a job you keep saying you want to land. You get the job interview with the biggest and most reputable company in the field. They offer you a salary that is the biggest in the market and actually three times as much as your biggest salary of your life up to that point. But you demand that they need to pay you double that amount still. When they say no, you leave the interview, you don't take the job and you claim the deal was not good enough for you to take, despite the fact that you and everyone else knows that you won't get anywhere near an offer like that for that job at any other company out there.

In a scenario like that, do you actually believe you can honestly say you wanted that job for real?

 

Who cares about Wilder? A talented boxer like Fury with those skills will beat a one-trick-pony ten times out of ten. Szpilka easily outboxed Wilder, for crying out loud. There’s a reason why Wilder has absolutely nobody on his resume worthy of note bar an ancient Ortiz (who doesn’t have anyone on his resume either).

Fury is scared stiff of Usyk as Usyk is the worst stylistic matchup for him. He is like a combination of Cunningham and Wallin - only ten times as good as those guys put together. Fury is in sharp decline since 2020 but it was not apparent because he fought plodders who didn’t expose how he has been losing speed. Usyk would dance rings around him and Fury knows it. Even his own camp knows it. Heck, his own uncle, Peter admitted that Usyk is the toughest possible fight out there for Fury and “he could be too much even for Tyson to be honest - he’s that good”.

Fury is not petrified of Usyk in a physical sense. He is petrified of the possibility what losing to Usyk means to his paper thin legacy. He knows Usyk is too much for him. I repeat: there was never a fight Fury actually wanted but didn’t make it. When he wants a fight, he makes it. When he doesn’t want it, he doesn’t make it. That’s what he did when he ducked Price, Ustinov or a still unbeaten Whyte or a still unbeaten Joshua.

Nice attempt at ducking to answer my question btw - Fury would be proud

 

Lol. It’s a thing around here when you are out of arguments you come with the weak sauce “calm down” or “emotionally invested” nonsense.

It’s okay, mate. I just expected more form you.

 

So let me get this straight. I was “obviously invested emotionally” because I saw it completely differently and I argued for it, explaining my reasons?

Lol. This place and the members here are something else.

Usyk UD against Fury, 117-111 or 116-112. Team Fury knows this, that’s why they didn’t take the fight. Usyk is faster, slicker, more skilled, more agile, more mobile and will dance around the fat blob. If you think Fury is good movement and speed, you’ll be shocked how Usyk will make him look like Bambi on ice and you’ll be thinking “what’s wrong with Fury, I don’t get it”. Lol at your reasons when Fury said about Cunningham: “He was a slick, talented boxer and I tried to walk him down, use my size and power, but he was just outboxing me. What I’m good at - boxing, moving, slipping and sliding – I couldn’t do against Steve Cunningham because he was quicker than me. It was like he was a better boxer all round than me, and he’d knocked me over even though he was a light puncher.”

He said these things about Steve trucking’ Cunningham, mate, who has always been 10% of the level of Usyk at best. He called Cunningham his hardest fight - and since then, he is literally a decade older, 40 lbs heavier, slower. Usyk will murder him, he knows this, that’s why he ducked Usyk twice in twelve months. And don’t worry, I’m not going anywhere. I’ll be here, laughing at those who bought into this narrative how Fury is going to defeat someone who is basically Cunningham + Walling, Fury’s two toughest fights ever, combined only faster, more skilled, more agile and a better boxer.
