    As a Charlo fan (one of the few on here), he definitely should also be stripped. Mental health issues or not. Actually that excuse is all the more reason that they both be stripped (he and Fury)

    Usyk is the lineal champion, not Fury.

    Fury surrendered the lineal when he shat himself and ran away from "the middleweight" in March.

    He should already be stripped at this point.................but a hard line should be 30 days after this clown shoes of a fight, if Fury isn't in "firm" negotiations he should be stripped with extreme prejudice.

    Remember fury said he was retiring after the chisora fight. The mma guy he is fighting is an exhibition. Unless he gets offered silly money to fight usyk or AJ then I don’t think we’ll see him defend that wbc title

    For all the stupid **** that comes out of his mouth, I think Fury is very clear eyed about what difficulties other fighters might pose.

    It was very obvious to him that the only threat Wilder posed with his lack of skill was the home run punch. A risk, but the smallest risk if he wanted a title and any type of platform for lucrative fights.

    But Joshua with his size, speed and accuracy had a much better chance to exploit Fury's lax guard and defensive lapses. Remember that Wilder put Fury down four times in three fights. Joshua is slightly smaller than Wilder in terms of height and reach and doesn't quite have the power that Wilder has in his right, but is levels above him in terms of skill and finishing.

    Usyk is a southpaw and much superior version of Cunningham, Fury's most difficult opponent by his own admission.

    It's no coincident that he managed to make two fights with Wilder, the third being automatic, but not a single one against AJ and Usyk combined, despite more titles and money being at stake.

    No mate, you educate yourself. Fury claimed his lineage went all the way back to John L. Sullivan. Sullivan retired over 130 years ago.

    Since then, Marciano and Lewis retired as champions. Care to explain how it is possible then this so-called lineage is unbroken between Sullivan and Fury as saggy tits claims?

    In any case, the whole lineal thing is just a gimmick. But @UmarIFLUmar is right of course. If there is a lineal today, it’s Usyk since even if Fury had the lineage, he broke it when he went AWOL due to his PED ban. Even if his claim to the lineal title was legit back in 2015, it would only have gone to Lewis as Wlad was the start of a new lineage. But it’s a meaningless thing altogether. This lineal thing is just for casuals and trolls like you.

    He was never a real deal. Never.


    His career was very selective chose of opponents.

    No matter how many crying paragraphs you write you can't rewrite factual objective history and objectively with precedent Fury is the lineal champion. Unless Fury retires or drops that belt or loses then Usyk cannot take claim to it. Usyk could form a new lineage but that is still to be determined.
