    It will grow back.

    It won’t happen overnight but it will happen.

    If Fury lets that beard grow long enough he could possibly manage a barely detectable comb over.

    Interesting that the likes of @Pimp C were rooting for Fury. Probably because they know Usyk has a greater legacy and want the ascension to be thwarted.

    thank you good sir. Not because I care who you voted for, but because, um, sanity is nice.

    Fury just doesn’t have any power to keep a fighter honest. Someone like Dubois would steam roll him.

    I don't even disagree with much of what you are saying about western politically motivated manipulation of sports, bans of inconvenient countries and pushing Ukrainians wherever they can etc etc. But this fight - this particular fight - was won clearly and cleanly by Usyk, and that's all there is to it. Perhaps without the prevailing political environment they would have robbed him ( actually they would have robbed him long ago against Joshua ), but that's not why he won. He won because he won more rounds, legit.

    Usyk has surpassed Mayweather in terms of greatness in my opinion.

    Just calling out your obvious bias that you're trying to justify per usual. It's embarrassing.

    Spot on. Anybody treating Jo like a stepping stone right now is an idiot.

    Parker ain’t there to pad Dubois’ resume. He’s a very live chance.

    eh, it’s boxing. If Dubois gets past Parker (big if), he absolutely deserves a shot at Usyk.

    I agree.
    Dubios would smash Fury up.

    Fury will just fight Joshua next for an easy touch x2

    Indeed. Usyk beat the second best HW of his era who clearly was a very bad style matchup for him twice now. And yet again did it while having to overcome some rough moments. Mayweather never did that. Always had the judges, refs, athletic commission in his pocket while fighting at home.

    I don't need to justify anything, I'm proud of it and bragging... and you're literally the only one bitching about it.

    I cannot believe the British bias, damage control is already working at full speed.
