    It seems Fury was able to continue fighting well enough in the following rounds, so empirically it seems it was the right decision not to stop it.

    Now, the one card for Fury... not so defendable.

    That would be fair enough.

    But, it was closer than a lot of people are stating on here and the pivotal moment was the KD.

    Had he done that Usyk would have walked him into a KO.

    Over 36 rounds AJ not Fury could walk through Usyk.

    It baffles me how people still think this is how to beat him.

    Usyk did what far bigger men couldn't,( officially) do.


    He rodgered the arse of Tyson Fury...

    Usyk the back garden globe trotting gypsy king slayer...

    Home or away, he does it in professional style..

    What a fight. Usyk sharp in the first two rounds. Fury then started to gain control. Had a hard time seeing Usyk coming back after the 6th and 7th round with Fury hurting him along the way. The broken nose and the brutal KD in the 9th really changed the fight in favor of Usyk. Usyk won the fight, no doubt.

    For me either of these guys can win the rematch.

    Say what you like about both men especially Fury it was a good fight Usyk was the deserved winner but Fury showed up and was the first man to legit hurt Usyk and win clear rounds from him. Congratulations to Usyk he is an all time great.

    :lol:


    He hurt AJ, Chisora, Dubois, and now Belly with combinations and he hurt all of them bar Chisora with single shots. Not bad for a guy who ''can't punch,'' eh?
