    That cringe moment wasn't Dubois' fault. The guy is legitimately stupid. He does what Frank tells him to do for promo. It went like this:

    Dubois: you've gotta give me that rematch! robbery!
    Usyk: (mocking turkey calling him 'Mr. Excellency') make a fight with this guy
    Dubois grins like a f***ing goofball doing a skit and says "thank you"

    I can’t stand Fury but I think those last 2 performances have been the best of his career. He’s just in with an absolute genius. No shame in it.

    Can't be too mad about 8-4 x3, but that's really as generous as you can be to Fury. It was realistically more like 10-2 or even 11-1.

    it seemed like fury spent too much time trying to find the perfect counter. thats a terrible gameplan against someone like usyk. I really thought hed put on the pressure more in the 2nd fight but he still kept going backwards for the majority of the fight.

    That's the surprising thing about Turki - he is NOT a casual. A righteous boxing purist in fact. He wants the right man to win, no matter what.

    I'm American so I'm used to absolute corruption by wealthy people. Refreshing to see Turki do right. Helluva an event organizer/promoter he is

    For me a split decision either way or a draw was the right result.

    Fury and Joshua finally have something in common!

    They thought they'd best Usyk in a rematch only to find out that their heavier weight advantage means even less when Usyk gets better too.

    Dubois is the next fight to be made, there’s no arguments.

    Frank Warren wanting to shed tears but purposely sending Dubois in the ring to challenge Usyk after he just defeated Fury for a second time in a row, then complaining about the decision and how people front row were shocked. Usyk won by at least 2, so on one round switch and having it by 4 I have no issues with it as right man got the decision.

    Usyk wouldnt mock Turki. It's just his lack of English.

    We don’t need to see Usyk v Dubois. There’s always an excuse and a what if. Joshua just needed to put it on him in the rematch. Fury needed to stop showboating in the rematch.

    Let Usyk get on with things instead of having to beat every Brit twice.
