Makhmudov is not a world beater

Why would Fury 16 months out fight Kabayel, Kabayel said he'd never fight Fury also because Fury helped him get to where he is.

Madmudov is a good ring rust fight ready for a real fight against Usyk or AJ end of summer.

Meanwhile AJ isn't fighting....straight into Fury or maybe even Wilder.

 

Parker was the second best heavyweight in the world for a short stretch.

 

This buddy-buddy culture needs to stop. Now Fury ain't fighting both Kabayel and Parker, cause they are mates, lol.

 

What "people" laughed?

 

Well they don't know much then

 

Only because Fury wouldn't entertain it

 

Young Fury decimates Kabayel...but Kabayel is the fresher man now. Definitely a much closer fight.

Boxing is still about business. I feel like Fury AJ is a bluff and we're getting Fury Usyk 3 with an AJ Wilder co main.

 

I have to agree with the sentiment (not so much the insult). Kabayel is one of the top 3 or so HWs in the world right now. Might even be #2.

Kabayel is what people THOUGHT Bakole might be after the Anderson fight — a legitimate boogeyman. Real solid skills, great engine, durable, can recover when hurt, solid power to the head, top tier power to the body. Mean pressure fighter.

There’s a reason he focuses on those body attacks so much. It’s that he’s got some weird biomechanics going on where he’s in the top tier power class when throwing body shots, but a rung down when throwing head shots. This was clearly noticed by a trainer real early on, so he’s built his style around it.
