Agreed, but he went to Germany and beat a champ who couldn’t be beaten for a decade quite easily. Joshua won a British, think it was actually vacant. Then got a world title shot straight after. He was then cleverly matched for years, was found out against a 41 year old with major ring rust and got lucky. Cleverly matched conning more people, then found out against a fat midget. Against the only worthwhile person he fought in his prime he showed his level twice. Fury has walked the walk in shedding the weight and battering an extremely limited yet extremely dangerous puncher 3 times. I know who deserves more respect in my opinion.
Lets play... A) Tyson won it in one of the most boring fights of recent history. B) Why any other heavy never madr their promoter go for that i will never know!!! It was like a free lotto ticket. C) Tyson popped dirty and bottled the rematch. D) aj beat ruiz in the rematch. E) Tyson fought the most overrrated heavyweight since Michael Grant. Hes that ovverated that tyson stopped going to greggs for 6 months, hired a boxercise instructor and beat Wilder. And Wilder had somwthing like NINETY MINUTES to park tyson up. And failed. Hardest puncher ever, apparently.
Not interested in playing mate. I can’t stand either of them. Nobody fancied Fury in that. The odds were stupid I won hundreds by putting little on. Nobody believed he could do so much so that in about round 6/7/8 when he was dominating I checked the odds and he was still huge underdog so I lunped more on. That is why no promoter did it because nobody thought anybody could beat him yet. I really thought Fury would win because he was no 6 foot Chagaev or Povetkin who he loved jabbing, holding with the odd 1,2. For the first time in a long time he’d be in with someone bigger the wasn’t a waste of space. You know better than to use the manner of a victory against someone. Wlad stunk the place out in every fight to blame Fury for that is wrong. Also he boxes and moved well, name of the game. Joshua did the same to redeem himself slightly after being beaten up by a fat midget. I’m sure Koshua wishes he just stunk the place out that first fight. I’m sure the rematch was signed for Manchester then Wlad got injured or something then Wlad decided he couldn’t be bothered and retired. Agree, AJ won, so what. He should never have lost, trading short bent arm shots with a shorter stocky man when you’re 6 foot 6 and have a big reach advantage is stupid. He lost because he allowed it to happen. No way he loses that if he boxes properly like he did second fight. In terms of being found out I mean found out by spewing it spitting gum shields out not wanting to be there. Found out by the gullible public that this indestructible warrior built like an Adonis was a complete fabrication. Mate, I have slated Wilder for years and years on here you don’t need to tel me that. He’s terrible and incredibly lucky. You don’t need to tell me how bad he is. He is extremely dangerous though. One trick pony but he’s been losing handily many times and landed. I stand by my opinion.
Genuine question, and I'm not trying to start an argument.. but it seems like you're actually pretty happy the Usyk fight fell through because it vindicates your longstanding dislike of Fury. Is this the case?
I used to go to his early fights. Rogan and Pajkic and such. I assumed when he beat Klitschko we'd have a worthy long lasting champion who would clean up the division. What we really got is a lot of horse **** and smoke and mirrors. The Klitschko fight was nearly a decade ago. Fury has been in his psychical prime all that time and the only top 10 fighters he fought were Wilder and Whyte. His cv the last decade has been atrocious. Take Wilder and Whyte out and he's faced nothing but fighters at the same standard as Rogan and Pajkic. These are fights you expect from regional fighters attempting a step up. I give up on the whole Fury train completely when Chisora 3 was made. I still haven't seen a second of that. Tommy Fury vs that Paul fella was more appealing for christ sake. Joe joyce is no World beater. A good honest pro though getting the max out of what he has. In only 15 fights he has about a 3rd of them that would easily be Fury top 10 wins.
The biggest lie is that the WK who AJ faced is somehow much worse than Fury version. He looked poor against Fury aswell. We dont need to put down AJ to say Fury is the better boxer thats evidently clear.
Agreed but he was terrified of Fury. The one against Joshua was the best Klitschko I’d seen in a long time because he went for it. Light in his feet, in and out I thought he was incredible. Facts are though, he had been out the ring for 18 months that can’t have helped. Had he tried that against Joshua 6 months after the Fury fight it would have been better.
Waldo showed major signs of slipping against Jennings nevermind Fury or Joshua. He didn't just get old over night. He was in his 40's. It's still a good win for both men though. He was still clearly a major threat who could KO anyone who let their guard down.
fury was masterclass werent it watched it with family we were in aw of fury that night i did predict him to win not like that though he was amazing showed his skills it was so easy he made the fella look daft when klitcshko was in with joshua he was out ring to long he was 41 was retiring he was knackered after 10 minute never seen before in fight with him he was finished great entertainment credit both men but fury toyed with champion in germany big difference he was marvelous joshua was nearly out he was proven not as good as fury when he lost to wee ruiz in america he was wnting out the pain was to much
I wish the fight was happenjng because it's a fascimating fight on many levels. But i am over the moon that those two greedy people who are not from the ukraine lost two mega mega mega pay days. That is the only way to hurt greedy people. Now Tiresome has to come up with a few new flavours for his poundland energy drink. I suggest duck & cover. I saw through Tiresome many many years ago when he ducked Pricey and kicked up a huge fuss coz Daddy Ustinov was match fit. Then came the pointless fights, lies about charity, then Bore Chisora 3. He has been dishonest for years but most of this forum (i really question your judgment when it comes to character) always, for some insane reason backed him and gave him the benefit of the doubt. I would love it if AJ got sparked out and Usyk injured himself. Coz Tiresome would be fighting for tuppence full stop.
I'd imagine Peter Fury took the blue print for toppling Waldo from the Jennings fight. Can we do what Jennings did constantly working on the back foot against an aging champ but do it better with a more talented fighter? Yes we'll shock him with that. Everybody else was expecting Fury to just go in there and try and rough him up and get the KO. Like Wilder 2. The complete opposite is what happened of course.
I agree I thought WK looked good against AJ but I think that’s because AJ was/is even more robotic than WK. I had a good bit of cash on WK winning by KO, still pains me to this day that he took it easy and didn’t finish AJ off.
Took it easy? Rewatch it. Wlad kept trying to end it with a left leaping hook. Tried it like 40 times. Had he threw a actual combonation he could have done so.
