    This Fury vs Usyk fight reminded me of how many fans said that Fury would beat all the heavyweights pre 1990 because of size

    The thing they may have been overlooking is the new era of giant heavyweights that have a huge deficiency in gas tank..

    Does Fury beat Ali, Fraizer, Foreman, Holyfield, Holmes Bowe Tyson etc

    Casuals do. Lol because casuals don't realize that in the 1970's alone there were 100s of boxers who were at least 6'5 up to 6'9 like James J Beattie and nobody ever said these guys were super heavyweights.
