    He can get Fury to do the heavy lifting for this entire era then try and steal all the glory and belts off shot to pieces Fury who will beat Usyk by a slither?

    No chance.

    Close fight. Usyk takes the rematch might lose might even win. Both retire into the sunset together as the two exceptional fighters of this era. Forget about silly names like Crawfish and Canelo.

    AJ pounds sand and Eddie Hearn buys him his 3rd belt to pretend like he was ever a real champion despite never having beaten a reigning champion or 2nd even 3rd best man

    I mean I'd love to be wrong and Fury boxes up a storm and looks like he's been born again but I know, he knows and everyone who knows, knows that he is well over that hill with unrecoverable issues and so does Usyk.

    Plenty of old boys on this forum who understand what a worn out joint means...it means straight into the care home, not high level physically brutal sports.

    This seems like you’re now having a bit each way old mate.

    What happened to Fury being unbeatable and embarrassing Usyk?

    Depends what mood I'm in. I'm in a serious mood here. You can't have two shot elbows and decimate someone. He was in limp mode against Francis & 3rd Wilder bout. Was holding back against Whyte & Chisora. Usyk himself has a naff shoulder and I'm sure his elbows aren't too pretty either or his knees. Fury's jab has never been so poor and minimal, he even throws it differently trying to preserve his elbow. He now goes for a long lead hook rather than a jab that will lock out his elbow.

    Heavy lifting for the entire era?

    Really?


    AJ wasn’t even the 3rd best HW?

    Really?

    Who has Fury beaten really?

    The overrated can crusher a couple of times, a washed champ and Derek Chisora on repeat when both guys were looking for a paycheque.

    He’s not fit to be mentioned in the same sentence at Usyk. Or AJ for that matter.

    Imagine actually ranking Fury above AJ.

    Usyk as a cruiserweight was exceptional, but as a HW his resume is less than stellar in historical terms.

    That’s true but there’s not one current heavyweight with a better than average resume.

    Sounds like someone is making excuses before the fight happens? I thought Fury was unbeatable?

    Well, and on top of that...

    Heavy lifting?

    Like it wasn't AJ that unified twice already to bunch together 3 of the 4 belts... The 3 that Fury will be hoping to spoil and/or fluke off Usyk to claim he was always the best.

    Like AJ didn't have to beat guys who would've annihilated the paper champion that Fury fought for his single belt.


    If anyone did the heavy lifting for someone else to (potentially) take the credit, it's AJ that did it for Usyk/Fury.

    Remember before the Usyk-AJ rematch when Hearn was desperate for for Fury to step in and fight Usyk then AJ fight the winner however the deal fell through

    Eddie knew AJ had no chance against Usyk and still believes it that’s why you never see him go on about a third fight between them regardless of what Ben Davison says
