    Fury was definitely good enough to win the fight but he Usyk was the better man on the night. This defeat takes nothing away from Fury, he lost to a great fighter.

    Not saying he has a glass jaw mate, just don't think it holds up to Wilder's right hand.

    Lol how is Tyson Fury a great fighter? Because he beat a 40 year old Wlad 8 years ago and didn't look impressive? Is that all it takes to be great now? Beating up a has been and barely doing it?

    You'd be a fool not to respect his performance in that fight. He fought extremely well and gave Usyk a really tough fight.

    Yeah Usyk is great at heavyweight because he beat a mentally damaged Anthony Joshua after Andy Ruiz beat him first. If you can't comprehend that doesnt make you great then who cares

    Lol dude I am sure more intelligent people here agree with me than you. If you can't grasp that beating one overrated hypb doesn't make you great then please stop watching boxing.

    I agree OP, it's fine margins at this level, though those at the peak consistently are on the right side of those margins.

    Yea I will hold what you say with a grain of salt cause you been hyping Fury and constantly undermined Usyk and Joshau. Wilder is not a good boxer AJ is way more versatile and capable of getting him out of there is 3 Rounds.

    Fury is a very good fighter. He is not an all-time great fighter but he is to be respected for what he has accomplished in the ring, which is considerable.

    However, as a human being I have no respect for him at all. I don't respect bigots.

    How because you been wrong most times you actually thought Francis would defeat an Olympic gold medalist and former unified champion just because he embarrassed an undertrained Fury who has a complete different style to AJ with far less power.

    Fury is only getting criticised cause of the way he has talked and belittled fighters in the past. If he was respectful then fans would have also been respectful to him now
