    Fury lost to McDermott and Wallin and you know it too. Heck, when even John Fury goes over to McDermott and says "congratulations, you won the fight" then you can put up all the fake bravado act here you want, Fury actually having two solid losses on his record remains a fact.

    Not Froch's greatest admirer here but that doesn't matter, neither does it matter whether what he's aledging is born of jealousy or some other negative feeling if what he's aledging is in-fact true and as I'm yet to see anyone refute a single claim made by Froch, undoubtedly due to being reduced to petty name calling in the face of obvious facts, well this speaks for itself really.

    I could understand why Fury had a go at Bellew, because that goes back a long way to the rivalry with Price when Fury found out Bellew was David's gay lover and make some heated remarks about what he was going to do to both of them, some of it requiring professional plumbing work afterwards.

    However, going after Froch and insulting him was low. So it's good Carl gave him a bit of a talking to there and set him straight. But it'll probably never be quite the same between them again. And if Fury's not careful he'll lose not only his fans but all the boxers who support him, many of who work as pundits.

    Fury hurt Frochy's feelings lol.

    I know Carl made £8.5 Million in the rematch against Groves (Is that after tax or before?)

    Personally don't think Froch was appreciated - and he's become bitter.

    Beep happens lol.

    Never dropped by bums, never stunk the joint out, never ducked anyone & fought a who's who back to back in classic after classic.. great fkin champion, the best of what boxing is.. cant compare really. Fury has a legit dance partner (Usyk) that could stamp his legacy forever & he chose a guy from MMA ffs.. I used to be a fan of Fury but I'd **** myself if he got knocked out here

    Fury should change his name to Tyson Duckworth and show up in Coronation Street as the long lost grandson of the late Jack and Vera. Manc legend already has the accent sorted btw.

    One has to be seriously crippled mentally to not see that one's favourite fighter:
    - hasn't fought anyone with a pulse in almost one and a half years
    - did what even his most devoted fans thought was just a grotesque joke at first: fought a trilogy against Chisora on PPV
    - keeps talking about Usyk, Joshua and others, claiming how easily he would beat them, yet never backs it up
    - in eight years he only fought two top guys (and even calling a limited KO artist Wilder and a washed-up Whyte as top guys is a bit of a stretch)
    - never was this Spartan warrior facing anyone and everyone as he claimed
    - keeps lying and gaslighting
    - never even came close to clean the division up which is the bare minimum requirement for an ATG
    - is about to fight a pointless exhibition fight against a non-boxer
    - declares he has no interest in boxing and wants to do movies
    - but all the while still claims to be lineal champion and still holds the WBC strap hostage

    Nobody in their right mind can genuinely say that "yeah, I'm pretty proud on and satisfied with how my guy manages his career, carries himself as champion and what legacy he builds". But we have around 10-12 cult members here who would never admit that.

    I won't name names but you know who you are.

    Well maybe Froch lost twice, but you still overlook fact that Fury has P4P smaller willy to satisfy his wife than Froch. And Its not a good too see third best HW of today Fury not as masculine as should be.

    Yep all very true. Great fights/wars with Pascal, Kessler, Taylor, and Groves.

    Coincidentally, I predicted Froch to become a world champion after watching his pro debut and I said to myself at the time (as early as his second pro fight IIRC) that Belly could make a lot of noise in the division if he actually took training seriously and whipped himself into shape. So I've been a fan of both right back since the start of their careers or rather a former fan of Belly now because of his shameless ducking of Usyk :facepalm:
