    FURY fangirls always use 'could' and 'would'.

    AJ has better resume in REALITY, not Fury fantasy LA LA land.

    FURY has also been helped along by the ref / judges, something fishy.

    2 out of 3 were life and death.

    Chisora should've got the win over Parker and arguably Whyte. Chisora gave Usyk a tough fight. The first 2 Chisora wins are legit by Fury.

    It's just Fury matches up so well with Chisora stylistically that he doesn't get credit for it

    But yeah, Fury definitely needed to beat Chisora up 3 times though.

    Joshua beat the sh*t out of Whyte bar getting momentarily stunned in round 2.

    When people say "Joshua struggled against Whyte" you might as well just say you never actually watched the fight.

    Nah don't see it that way. Fury has the best win over a younger Wlad but there's a big question mark over that result due to Fury failing a doping test prior to that fight that wasn't revealed until afterwards.

    Wilder is Fury's next best win and Wilder's resume is paper thin and when he did step up against a proven fighter in Parker he was utterly schooled and made to look out of his depth.

    Joshua's wins over Povetkin, Parker are both better wins than Wilder. Joshua's resume simply has more depth.

    But only because Fury was so unfit in 1 & 3.

    This either means Fury was just so good he could beat a dangerous fighter without even needing to be fit... Or it means Wilder isn't really that good at all.

    I think the fact Fury won #3 whilst clearly unfit and under prepared (and should've won #1 despite being in even worse condition) devalues the dominant win in #2... No serious fighter should be able to be taken that lightly and still get beaten.

    Joshua was in big trouble vs Whyte. The momentarily stunned is a nice reduction of what happened haha. Thats like saying Fury dominated Wilder minus round 4 in their 3rd fight.

    Joshuas wins over Povetkin and Parker are not better than Furys over Wilder.

    Wilder losing to Parker all these years later is not an indication of how good the win was at the time.

    The same way Whyte and Chisora (first time unofficially) beat Parker. Joyce too.

    Wilder at the time was better/more dangerous than those 2.

    Joshua quit vs Ruiz after getting dropped
    Wilders corner threw in the towel while Wilder was standing on his feet. Wilder fired his trainer because of this.

    Whatever you want to say negatively about Wilder he is not a quitter

    Wilder has shown significantly more heart than Joshua

    To be fair we can make a case for Parker winning with the KD of Whyte, without it, no chance.
    The fight was completely different without it. Also Parker was winning that round, so you had to be mad to say Whyte would have won without the KD.
    But what this guy don't get is that Parker gassed terrible after the headbutt, and he needed quite a lot of time to recover from that headbutt as well.
    I definitely had to take break from the forum, as i gaslighting quite a lot lately, cause all of the poking some Fury fans were doing to us for awhile, but at least i'm never that delusional or totally biased and ignore obvious stuffs, just to fit my narrative.

    Fury has an L to McDermott, other notable wins being:

    Klitchko (after terrible training camp and going through split with his then partner). Technical win for Fury, notably bad performance from Vlad.
    WIlder x3. THis includes various KD's on both sides, at least one of which would have been waved off in, I would say, 50% of times it played out resulting in a Fury L. Wilder himself was considered technically very basic ("terrible") but with godly right hand.

    That's it. Other B level:

    Chisora
    Whyte (what happened to Whyte before this fight we just don't know)
    Wallin (which might have been stopped in other circumstances resulting in another Vit Klit style loss).
