It’s absurd to have Fury behind Joshua now, surely even you can recognise this. I’d probably go for Fury over Usyk on account of his heavyweight record although I believe if they fight it’s a real toss up. Silly to have Whyte as 4th, last night showed how limited he is.
I don't think Fury has star quality, no matter what he does, he's not got that aura, he's a great boxer but everything else, no, he's just a big man with a big mouth.
I'd say Fury is the biggest star in boxing. It depends on the criteria you use to define "biggest" but I think Fury is more well known worldwide and had more strings to his bow in regards to being famous. He's appeared in the WWE, brung a book out, energy drinks etc. and seen as a role model for mental health awareness to lots of people. Maybe Canelo has energy drinks and a book out too, I'm not sure, but I'm still saying Fury is boxing's biggest star today.
The role model for Mental Health Awareness status that he has is disgusting in my opinion, he's jumped on a bandwagon and used it to his advantage, it's really, really wrong.
Firstly, Hunter was not robbed against Povetkin. Povetkin was robbed against Hunter. It was Povetkin whose knockdown of Hunter was not counted! Hunter gassed after 5 rounds. This is bollocks. Based on your "resume" algorithm, how can you choose Takam as a name on anybody's record? I thought your "resume" algorithm was based on "resumes". Who has Takam beaten? Here is some context (although I know you don't do context): 39 year old Pulev whose best wins are Hughie Fury and Chisora = crap. He was absolutely crap. Paint Dry = hopeless. In one of the most boring fights I have ever seen. People bang on about Fury beating Klitschko in a borefest. Well, Joshua Parker was a hell of a lot worse than that. It was so bad and the referee was dodgy. Povetkin = old and had just been dropped by David Price. A good heavyweight but nothing more. Looked good in the early 2010's because it was a crap era. Ruiz = morbidly obese and hadn't trained properly. Hadn't beaten anybody except Joshua. It shows Joshua's level, more than anything. Takam = old and crap. Whyte = in crap shape, gassed, inexperienced and injured. Still had Joshua do a funny dance. Joshua would have his head blown off by Wilder. Joshua's had two 50/50's in his entire career. Went life and death in one and got schooled in the other. Took him over 4 years to have another 50/50. Carefully managed, manufactured product. He would lose to quite a few heavyweights these days. Funny also how you still refuse to factor in losses.
You don't like the man fair enough. But to suggest that he isn't a star is just plain wrong. 94k were there to see Fury fight in the flesh not Dillian Whyte.
Weird agenda. When did Price knockdown povetkin ? Fury is the best in division by far, focus on his achievements as opposse to letting someone who doesnt know you exist live rent free in your head. Weird guy.
The crowd would be 50-50 for that fight. Joshua has a whole different segment of the market than Fury, backed by his array of sponsors.
