    Who do you think i'm a fan of ? Usyk and AJ, exactly.

    But you still have to clean the best of the division, at least 90% of your generation to claim you are the best of the bunch.

    Usyk clean the division fully, but in CW. Fury hasn't done anything, not even close.
    He is picking his fights. Aging out fighters, and being inactive for years and after a year out layout, he faced Ngannou ....
    He is the only one to be blamed for his resume, no one else.

    AJ - Fury, Fury - Sanchez, Fury - Kabayel, Fury - Hrgovic, Fury - Zhang, Fury - Joyce, Fury - Dubois, Fury - Anderson, Fury - Bakole even.

    Could be. I'm looking forward to Agit's next fight. He's fun to watch.

    Dubois was mandatory.

    Joshua regained his title and was the legit #1 guy. Are we really suggesting that taking on Joshua was an easy fight? Even if Joshua being mentally damaged was true, how many other heavies aside from Fury could beat Joshua?

    The only guys Usyk could have fought were Zhang or Hrgovic. I think he will likely fight one of those guys soon.

    Yea, I don´t see someone with a knee injury sitting in a deep squat after getting knocked down via a liver shot. He just squatted there and tried his best to recover.
    How the hell could anyone with any sort of knee injury do that?

    I think this goes the distance. Most Irish fighters like Mexican and Japanese fighters have crazy heart (except Spike).

    Okay but now he has sacrificed his unbeaten record. It’s not like people were queuing up to fight him.

    This is why I got up at 4am to watch Kabayel v Sanchez. These Saudi cards are too long.

    Middle age is real

    Kabayel, Hrgovic, Parker.

    That's 3 fighters in the top 6 all under the age of 35.

    Lewis looks 2 inches taller than Parker. Are we sure Parker is 6'4?

    Going back to the weigh in, look at the anguish in Fury's face as he tries to push Usyk almost off stage and he can barely push him back a step.
