    Also, I don't see Fury leaning & using his weight so much - I see him picking Usyk apart with clean, mid-long range exchanges.

    You're the kind of boxing fan who claims that everyone below the top 5 (or even some inside the top 5) is a "bum" and a "tomato can", aka a complete moron.

    Wilder fought the same guys that many other prominent fighters fought and usually did a better job than those who fought them before or after.

    Is Ruiz a tomato can? Because he demolished Joshua who went on to give Usyk (who you apparently rate highly) two of his toughest fights and went 50-50 with Parker in New Zealand. Ruiz couldn't stop Morales, Liakhovich, Arreola or Ortiz, all of whom were older and more worn (maybe a lot more) than they were when Wilder stopped them. Ruiz also lost rounds against all four of them (Wilder only lost rounds against Ortiz), absorbed a lot more punches and got dropped.

    Wallin was a nobody but so was Mavrovic. Being unknown doesn't make you easy to stop but it often lulls the favourite into a sense of security.

    Usyk's not been stopped in 376 career fights so not stopping Usyk would be no disgrace. But then again, Fury has objectively shown more KO ability at a high level than Cunningham and Wilder's 82 other opponents, so "no chance" is absurd hyperbole.

    You can't be known as a durable guy but have been stopped by someone twice, and say they have no power

    Don’t disagree with that. He’d be pretty much unbeatable if he had savage power.

    I agree with most of what you say here but AJ did not give Usyk two of his toughest fights. The rematch was tougher for sure, but they were both comfortable nights for Usyk.

    Usyk's toughest and most competitive fights:

    Briedis
    Joshua 2
    Chisora
    Joshua 1
    Hunter

    Usyk winning both Joshua fights by a clear margin doesn't mean they weren't among his toughest. Gassiev didn't win a round and had one moment, Glowacki got schooled, Bellew's success was illusory and Usyk sparked him in 8 etc.

    I don't know what point you are trying to make here. Toughest on paper vs toughest in the ring?

    "I don't know what point you are trying to make here."

    Read back through the dialogue, there's no mystery.

    Joshua was Usyk's toughest opponent on paper but his 2nd toughest opponent (at least in the rematch) in practice.

    Fury has power & the punches Chisora was taking there were hard to watch towards the end,

    Ref should have ended it sooner, they don't need to be harder to cause brain damage or death.

    There's no 270lb man in fighting shape in the world that has 'no power'. Laughable.

    Those fights were before Whyte's chin was cracked by an ancient Povetkin

    You have to remember Chisora is down to the bare bones in the brain cells department.
