    He just wasn't good enough, no excuses
    Usyk is better and will beat him again

    Aj vs Fury is for the silver medal of the era
    I know there is a rematch clause, but why? Usyk will win again

    Long time no see, buddy. I see you are still a class above of those who picked Fury. I had no doubts you'd acknowledge he won fair and square.

    It’s an insult to Sugar Hill to allow John Fury in the corner he’s a babbling idiot.

    I was fully with you until the final part. But he was relying on Usyk getting old, and that is his only hope now.

    Usyk is amazing. It seemed in those middle rounds that Fury figured him out and was on his way to win. Usyk turned it around starting winning again and nearly knocked Fury out. No tragedy. Usyk was simply the better man.

    Yeh, I actually have more respect for Fury after this fight despite the loss. No shame in losing in 12 to Usyk, and being in the ascendency at times.

    I can’t see Fury retiring without having another go with Usyk and the main thing he needs to address is having his father in his corner giving instructions that were complete BS. If there is a rematch Sugar needs to INSIST that the father is nowhere near the ring never mind in the corner !

    Muhahhahahah.
    Your girlfriend won exactly 3 rounds clean. 4, 5 and 6. Nothing else. Everything else was Usyk rounds. And your girlfriend was KOed into oblivion and saved by the corrupt ref.

    Talk now you little trolly.

    And you hero did what crybaby?
    Did what exactly?
    Who controls the ring? Usyk ! Who won the ring generalship ? Usyk ! Who dictate the pace ? Usyk ! Who was the aggressor and put pressure on ? Usyk ! Who landed the cleaner harder shots? Usyk !!!

    Punches on the gloves don't count. Usyk clearly outland him by quite a lot in the last 2 rounds. And he won the 11 in the last few seconds with huge left hand.
    And first 2 rounds were clear Usyk's one. You can swing the third. 4,5,6 clear Fury, and he didn't won a single one after that.
    7,8,9,10,11,12 clear Usyk rounds.
    Now go wipe your tears kid.

    Fury has 100% broken nose, and plenty of injury to handle. He is done for it. He won't be ever be the same, after all the insult he throw on Usyk.
    Your hero is truly done, accept it.

    Also if there is even a rematch, it won't be for Undisputed, so that's mean nothing. This was the important fight.
    This was what sealed the deal who the man is in the division, and Usyk is the man.

    Between rounds 4-7 fury looked awesome, but that’s all it lasted for.

    Hardly a tragedy, he just made an outrageous sum of money and was in one of the best heavyweight title fights in years. I think Fury's legacy is pretty damn secure even if he loses the rematch, fight fans remember great fights and that was one hell of a fight and Fury has been in a lot of great fights. He's been in the odd stinker too, but these type of fights are the ones fans will remember later on down the line, the tension, the changes in momentum, the drama, this is how boxing history is made and lasting legacies secured.
