    Even if he still has good powers of recovery.

    AJ stood up to Usyk for 24 rounds and was never hurt. I know people like to claim that he was but he was just overwhelmed. He was never wobbly.

    Fury has always had a bit of question mark regarding his chin Pajkic who only had 4 stoppages put him down, as the did Cunningham who only weighed 210 pounds and wasn't a noted Heavyweight puncher.

    Usyk isn't a big punching Heavyweight but he's accurate and he's hurt big Super Heavyweights like Dubois, Joshua, i seem to recall Usyk being on the verge of stopping Joshua in the 12th round of their 1st fight.

    Usyk hurt AJ in round 3 of their first fight, although not badly.

    That's a massive exaggeration. Joshua was nowhere near the verge of getting stopped. He wasn't even hurt there.

    Usyk didn't have Joshua hurt? Lol. Joshua was 20 seconds away from being knocked out in the 12th round of the first fight.

    I'm pretty sure i remember Joshua was against the ropes and was in considerable trouble when the bell rung to end the fight, i haven't seen the fight since i watched it live but that's how i remember it.

    Please point out where we has hurt? Because he was taking punches? That doesn't mean he's hurt. He's just being overwhelmed by a better fighter with better conditioning. That might have LED to him eventually hurting AJ if it went on, but it never happened.

    He took some big shots in that 9th round, I'm surprised he didn't go down and take a knee.

    Some people on here seem to have forgotten than 10 more seconds at the end of their first fight and Usyk would have TKO'ed or KO'ed AJ.

    Usyk landed a massive right hand directly on Furys jaw. That punch would have hurt anyone.

    Fury can be knocked down but he has great recuparitive powers. It's why he came out the round after being all over the place against Usyk and a stoppage loss thereafter was never gonna happen.

    Watch the first fight when the bell is rang early in the final round to save Joshua ! Then can’t get off his stool after the bell is rang to end it. However yes you are correct Fury just can not take or absorb punishment like he used to,certainly looks like the Wilder trilogy put paid to both of them !

    Fury's chin has always been a question mark.

    Decent yes, but he gets put down too easily (and by guys who aren't murderous punchers) to ever think it was granite.

    He rolls with punches well, and his recovery is top notch and always has been.
