    :lol:

    Fury fouled and mauled his way to victory over Steve Cunningham for christ sake. Think about that.

    And they refer to it as a KO even. How do they know, had it been ruled a KD, that Usyk wouldn't have forced himself to beat the count? Knowing him, he would have done it. He would have been very hurt and on very shaky legs but he would have stood up.

    I mean, talk about grasping at straws. Usyk had close to 400 amateur fights and lost only 15 of them, giving him a winning percentage of over 95%. Fury only had 25 amateur fights but still managed to lose 20% of those. Among the guys who beat him was Babanin, who is half the size of Fury and fatter than Andy Ruiz and still dominated Fury to a wide 24-11 win. But sure, Usyk losing to Porter as a 19-year-old is the damning evidence of how bad a fighter he is. Dear Lord, the match can't come soon enough. The Fury fans get crazier by the minute.

    According to a lot of casuals and trolls, Chisora may have won 3 rounds, and even that's generous. He was on the brink of being stopped in the 7th, leaning against the ropes and saved by the bell, without ever hurting Usyk once. But he 'arguably won'. You're not disguising your trolling very convincingly, mate.

    When Fury makes easy work of Usyk tonight there will be a lot of people with egg on their faces. Remember you heard it here from the horse's mouth. Size amongst other attributes MATTER

    Nice try, and should we also forget that this was a fully illegal KO shot? Fury should have been DQ for it.
    In any sport where there is clear rules and integrity, that would result in a DQ loss for Fury.
    And should we also forget that Fury needed to hang on for dear life in previous rounds, as he was hurt badly, and need to recover via another illegal tactics, which clearly tired Cunningham.

    Put any other nationality onto Fury, and he already would have +3 more loses to his record.

    You can't really use the "This fighter got knocked down by this boxer and this other boxer didn't" To prove which fighter has a better chin. Foreman was knocked down by Ali. Ali didn't knock down Floyd Patterson. So Patterson has a better chin than Foreman right? Holyfield knocked down Ray Mercer yet Holfyield couldn't knock down Alex Stewart in the 2 fights they fought. So Stewart has a better chin than Mercer?

    Usyk runs a lot. He runs and slaps with his punches. It is harder to hit a boxer clean if they constantly runs. What is known is Usyk is a better fighter than Steve Cunnigham, which isn't really saing much though.

    He was already way past prime by the time he fought Fury, much like every single one of Fury's title defences.

    The only thing that changes around here after tonight is a lot of trolls like you will disappear when Usyk knocks Fury out.
