Tyson Fury: "If I can’t beat Usyk, I’m no good, clearly"

At the end of the day, I think the talent and heart were there, but the character and drive were not. He's a walking contradiction, partly truth and partly fiction. And he finally ran into a guy that was all truth.

 

I cringed when he said that. Lol! I was thinking “Ohhh boy. That’s going to really come back to haunt you.”

Also that kind of diminishes a win if you’re acting like beating someone should be a walk in the park! Just a dumb thing to say ESPECIALLY about a fighter of Usyk’s caliber.

 

Fury found out today, that his best punch couldn't get it done.

That’s just pre fight trash talk
Not to be taken seriously

 

Yeah he shouldn’t have said that the same way a lot of members on here shouldn’t have been crapping on Fury all through the build up. Fury is clearly the second best heavyweight in the world and I wouldn’t count him out in a rematch.

 

Well in fairness, he wasn't that bad, it's just that no one is near Usyk's level, no shame in it.

 

Let's see if Fury goes down the Ronda Rousey route

 

So overrated it's not funny however the US Boxing media had no choice but to wrap ridiculous servitudes over the guy because they did worse for the Wilder hype job. Usyk is a living legend but Fury is and never was what the said and wrote about him. If he was, at his size, then he wouldn't be in the situation that he currently is.

 

I thought Fury fought a great fight, Usyk was just better.

 

You can't take anything Fury says seriously, lol.

 

He was very good, actually, but Usyk was just a tad better on the night. Fury was dazzling in the first 6 rounds. I found the showboating entertaining, and it wasn't just for show, he was very effective at frustrating Usyk while he was showboating. But then Usyk found his range starting at the end of round 7 and the rest is history. The momentum changed big time.

 

Fury both disparaged Usyk and praised him in high terms pre fight, it's typical Fury. Don't take it too seriously, he knew Usyk was going to be very tough and so it turned out - a bit too tough for him.

 

He fought well, Usyk is much smaller and he's older, goes to show how much better Usyk really is.

 

Fury always rated usyk. Theres an interview from fury before usyk went to heavyweight where he was saying usyk,s red hot.

I think they knew how good he was from way back in the amatuers.

Always feel this is how fury motivates himself. By saying he,d be no good if he cant beat usyk he puts pressure on himself to win and he responds to that to motivate himself a lot of the time.
