GOAT == Usyk

Calls Fury so much crap but says Usyk is the greatest to ever live after this performance. Funny stuff

 

I think you guys are all forgetting that he could take the middle position and move back down to cruiser. And he's talked about it.

 

You know, imo, this is a reasonable take and could be picked to death any way that might suit one. Also will add that there are likely some heads in Classic that might add one decade or another to the comparison. Fair is fair. I can't work up much admiration for Wlad. That said, Fury ain't much.

 

mmmmm...the whole thing is based on Fury beating Wlad in maybe the worst showing of notable heavies in history. That "Championship" was a disgrace. So then other than that Fury beat Wilder who is universally regarded as a one trick pony with a guided tour of a career. It's probably better than the era Wlad was allowed to rule over, but that ain't sayin' much.

 

No, Usyk is not a shell of his former self. His style necessarily changed at HW and he is undisputed. There’s no one who would be favored against him in the HW division. Of course he doesn’t need to fight again, but he may very well have another go with Fury. It will be interesting to see his decision in the coming weeks.

 

I think in fairness though, that has to do with the strain of out-maneuvering a truly massive man.

 

And Fury's.

 

Him being able to maximise what's left of his abilities makes him closer to his prime by definition no?

 

Fair assessment

 

lmao.

 

Yes and he will have to deal with that same massive man in a rematch, and then another massive man in Hrgovic.

 

I had it 8-4 for Usyk...wasn't as close as Fury fanboys like to claim...Their guy got schooled by a "middleweight"...and it should've been a TKO R9 win for Usyk actually, since Fury was out on his feet...
