    Few have criticized Aj more than me. I think he's fake, manufactured, etc. However, when he is beat, he keeps it real. Watch below

    Why can't Fury do the same? Watch the fights back with usyk and admit he lost both. He is just lying to himself, creating a fantasy and was robbed

    He wasn't robbed, just lost to a better boxer

    He was beaten and deep down he knows it he just has a massive ego.
    With AJ his ego was brought down a peg as he has been soundly beaten and knocked out so there is not much he can really say unless you go full ****** like Wilder. AJ has been humbled Fury still has not.

    Winners find it hard to accept losing.

    AJ is probably TBE at accepting defeat, but that doesn’t make him TBE as a fighter.

    Still have to watch the fight back but I didn’t think he lost the 2nd fight.

    Michael Buffer didn’t think he lost the fight. Ngannou and Okolie both thought the fight was ‘closer than that’. Basically saying he could have gotten the win.

    He's a narcissist like AJ and Wilder of course he can't. That being said he gave Usyk his toughest fights at HW, and toughest fights in general alongside Briedis.

    A poll on ESB here had 160 votes and only 12 thought Fury won.

    All three judges had it for Usyk by multiple rounds. The AI judge had it wide.

    Bellew, AJ, Shawn Porter, Kambosos, CBS sports, Pugmire, and plenty other public scores by boxers and journalists had it for Usyk.

    On top of the fact Usyk landed more punches in the fight and connected at the higher percentage.

    Pretty sure the ones scoring it a draw are a small minority and ones scoring it for Fury an even smaller one.

    Fury did the Mayweather thing and built his whole legacy on being undefeated. Silly move. If you keep bragging about being unbeaten, eventually you will lose and since you built your identity on the undefeated record, you can't even admit to yourself that you lost fair and square.

    Just embarrassing when boxers can't take a loss. Its part of life, you use losses to be better.

    I agree it is due to his lifestyle, but still

    Isn’t that a totally bogus excuse? Who has responsibility for his lifestyle? It’s like someone saying I lost because I didn’t throw a punch

    And you know what makes me laugh about Fury aswell.

    He complains about being robbed but forgets he himself benefitted from some very controversial decisions vs McDermott, Ngannou.

    The McDermott one was considered so bad they changed the rules on how British title fights were scored.
