    We all know weight means a **** ton in boxing, its why boxers at the lower weights cut a ton of weight to get advantages over there opponents, for Usyk to come up and beat the two best heavyweights of this era who both have 40+ pounds on him is a remarkable feat, even if you don't rate AJ or Fury as all time greats its still remarkable.

    I think he belongs with Ali, Louis, Greb, Robinson, Armstrong, Duran, Leonard....the true uber elite.

    Why, because he beat an MMA fighter and also lost to Usyk?
    Get a grip.
    If AJ is higher ranked than Fury, then why does he keep avoiding Wilder?
    Fury fought Wilder x3 and AJ has yet to sign the contract.
    Let that sink in.

    Your reasoning is very poor. It's possible AJ does beat Fury, but it wouldn't be because both lost to Usyk.

    Fury would give AJ fits in the ring. He gave Usyk arguably the hardest fight of his career and could very well win the rematch. AJ got schooled from start to finish.

    There's levels to this sport son.

    "He just needs one and Fury's gone"... Sure I've heard that before ;)

    I think AJ does KO Fury now but prime v prime Fury probably does outbox AJ to a clear UD.

    What happen bro? You see what happen? If you don't think AJ stops Fury, you are just a blatant AJ hater, sorry.

    You were picking Fury to win against Usyk lately, just out of hate to AJ,
    Fury had nothing on AJ, he is getting stop in 3 rounds.

    Yeah and AJ is miles above Fury. Fury has nothing on AJ.
    Be objective once in your life.

    This Usyk is way past his prime, this is 37,5 years old Usyk.
    AJ fought Usyk when he was 34 and then 35 in the rematch, which is a HUGE difference. If you don't admit that you don't know a thing.

    And Fury should have lost via KO, simple as that. Refs saved him, and AJ saved himself in the 12th round.

    No one can take that away from him.
    37.5 years old and old of his prime for so many years. For me his last really true prime was against Gassiev and he start losing his quality after that fight or around that time.
    AJ 1 was great showing, and that was. He id declining steadily since that.
    It's quite obvious. He needs to retire.

    He probably should retire but he has beaten the best in the division, so part of me says why not stay around and run up the score?

    More like beating Canelo, while being 40+ pounds down, also 16cm. in height, and 19 in reach.
    Good luck with that.

    Usyk doesn't give Fury the rematch and vacates the belts. Then Fury and AJ can fight for the belts. That is what you hope for right?
