    Sorry man, you have to excuse us we are used to seeing a champion who shows up to destroy guys, not run, dance, and hold. We got spoiled but congrats on this warrior performance by your “champion”. Lol

    Safe to say Fury would clown AJ. AJ against Wilder could be interesting.

    How does me giving him his dues make him my hero.

    I picked AJ to win but was rooting for Ruiz.

    I'm a fan of all four of the top dudes.

    Been a fan of AJ since he stopped Wlad (and I was rooting for Wlad in that bout).

    Been a fan of my fellow Irish Gypsy King since I saw him interview after his fifth pro bout. Personality !!!!!

    And I have slowly warmed to the big guy from Alabama who seems at least somewhat better than I first took him to be.



    And when my guy loses, I don't go ape-s**t with venom, disparaging his conqueror.

    He always "ran".
    He had brilliant footwork and he used it to overwhelm his opponents before "taking their head off".

    I gave him credit for it in my final scorecard. And no the division isn't better for it, it's still a worthless shitheap. It remains status quo.

    Fury>Joshua>Usyk>all the others.
    (Arslanbek Makhmudov and Filip Hrgovic can beat(and get beaten) all, but they need to prove themselves)

    Who's going ape**** you senile old ****? I gave my opinion and every Brit on the thread got triggered and started quoting me asking me to say an act of contrition because I insult their false God. Newsflash numbnuts, you aren't going to make me a fan, so what's the point of any of this? You will get nowhere.

    No. He just lazily collected a check by not training. I wonder if he ever gets a Championship fight again. I mean, he made a lot of money and though very skilled, is obviously not someone who leads a healthy lifestyle.

    Yes but these kind of tactics will nullify any short fighter. Shorter fighters can only win if the taller fighter engages a lot and leaves themselves open.

    You don't think a Joshua Wilder Fury triangle makes for a more interesting set of fights?
