    And Fury has fought Sefin, got bust up by a nobody in Wallin, and fought Boxings most overrated and limited puncher three times in a row. And now he's gonna fight another nobody.

    See, that doesn't look good at all.

    Wilder, out of the top 4, is the hypejob. 98% of his career was against cans.

    I agree. The difference of opinions is what makes the forum go round. If everyone agreed it would be boring.
    Some posters are more predictable than others though.
    The likes of @Mitch87 and @lordlosh and @Ty is That Guy are comical in their criticisms of Fury, but even they sometimes highlight something valid.

    Yes, but no, actually.
    He's an incredibly dangerous puncher.
    You thought he'd KO Fury twice, right?
    So who's been overrating him? You did?
    And he proved to be dangerous in the third fight too.
    Wilder is a danger to anyone.

    Otto Wallin fight was tough. Not a good performance from Fury at all.

    I'm not saying Fury's performances were all great. I'm not saying he didn't fight bums. But I am saying his comeback has been impressive, and he has the best record during that period.
    That's all.

    What I don't understand is why Fury critics are pretending Dillian Whyte will be a good win?
    It's a decent fight in the sense that Whyte will help build the fight up and will probably give a good effort in the ring, he's a reasonable choice for a filler fight. But that's all he is. He adds nothing to Fury's résumé. He is British level. He was old cold two fights ago against an ancient Povetkin. He struggles with Chisora, he was lucky to survive against Parker nevermind the dubious officiating.
    If Fury beats Whyte, it means virtually nothing.

    I still believe he might well be fighting Whyte, and it should be a one-sided fight. I won't be calling it a great win if it happens.

    Impressive in what way? He hasn't cleaned out the division and has no intention in fighting another dangerous guy, hence him fighting a nobody next.

    Take Wilder off that list and it's disgraceful.

    thats one way of looking at it.another is he got busted for peds went on a 2 and a half year bender came back with very(convienient) mental health issues imo considering he's a pathological liar.done a complete 360 in character to change public perceptions of himself again(convienient) and beat a very dangerous deontay wilderx3 yes well done but sheer epicness?..doo me a favah.the way he gets his baws drained by some on here you would think he's the second coming of Christ.

    Fought bums. Took PEDs. Avoided the best. Faked Covid. Faked depression. faked mental illness to make you look away from Nandrolone. And is currently trying to avoid his mandatory. The only thing impressive about Furys "comeback" is the fact that he has conned you all into believing that he is an all time great...with one title defense against a guy he already beat.

    Also. I will ask you just like I have asked everyone else. Can you name Fury's top 5 opponents? Even better. Take an old Klitschko and an overrated Wilder off the list, and what do you have?

    Impressive in the sense that he was completely finished, done, written off, no hope, "Bellew beats him now", physically and mentally wrecked, comes along and beats Wilder twice, 3 times really, destroys him in the 2nd and 3rd fights.

    Obviously if you take the 3 Wilder fights off, it's crap. But why would we ignore the 3 Wilder fights? We don't.

    I don't care about his character. The whole public image thing, I couldn't care less about.

    The fact is, for whatever reason, he looked done, finished, fat and mentally confused, but he came back to beat a very dangerous puncher 3 times, in my opinion. Getting off the floor to beat him down too.
    Just acknowledge that as quite impressive, that's all.
    And yes it's pretty much an epic comeback. Like it or not.

    Explain to me how Fury gets props for beating a guy that he already beat? Also give me a good reason why he shouldn't jump at he chance to fight Whyte in the UK in front of a packed arena? Even with the Wilder fights, Fury still fought Seferi, Pianeta and Schwarz and none of them even box any more. And that was part of his last 7 fights in the last 6 years. Add the fact that he has had to be taken to arbitration twice in the last 6 months to make him fight. If Fury came back and beat everybody lie Ali did, I'd be the first one to give him props. But when he fought Seferi, Seferi was ranked 183rd in the world. Ali came back and fought Quarry who was at the time ranked number 2. Night and day difference. Also Ali fought everybody at heavyweight for two decades. A lot of them he fought 2 and 3 times. Fury has been fighting for 13 years and we struggle to put together 5 good opponents on his resume. The moment they made Whyte the mandatory I knew he would duck him just like Wilder did for all those years because both Wilder and Fury are frauds, not real champions. And a real champion would jump at the chance to prove he is better than Whyte and anybody else. But a fraud with one title defense in 6 years would try to duck that fight. Like Fury is doing right now

    Joshua has been in two fifty-fifity. bouts in his career, losing one of them and going life and death in the other, to a man Fury schooled when he wasn't inactive, in his own stadium, 2 years younger and as a reigning champion full of confidence.

    On top of that, he has been beaten by a morbidly obese Mexican in Rice Pudding Jr.

    I can't think of any Fury supporter who says that he has an incredible record - just that his record is obviously and easily better than Joshua's.

    1) Fury has never lost. Joshua has lost twice and once to an absolute pudding.
    2) Fury fights and wins away from home. Joshua can only fight in UK.
    3) He has won 4 top level fights as opposed to Joshua's 1, which was in Wembley against Fury's old, inactive sloppy seconds.
    4) He is the lineal champion. Joshua never has been.
    5) He has held every single belt possible. Joshua hasn't.
    6) He has been in 50-50 bouts since near the start of his career, while Joshua has been in carefully selected knockover jobs despite being a (fake) Olympic champion.

    There are probably many more reasons that others can fill in.

    Bro you are bias as hell for Fury. People were slamming AJ cause of Hearn saying AJ may drop the belt if he was forced by the WBO for Usyk, and people were all over him that he is ducking Usyk.
    AJ at least had the ball to fight his mandatory.

    People are now criticize him for fighting Povetkin and Pulev, cause they were old - they were MANDATORY !!! And they had only 1 loses and still top 5 in the division at the time he faced them.

    Fury is chicken out of Whyte fight, and his blinded fangirls are defending him with all they've got.

    I asked a simple question, but you couldn't answer it, cause you know i'm 100% correct.

    Both Wilder and Fury are 5 years before AJ in the division yet they fought absolutely nobody and totally miss 99% of the top dogs, cause they were only looking for an easy fights.

    Wow. You are so deluded that it is not even worth responding to you. You go ahead and enjoy your ducking idol. And try to keep a straight face when he gets stripped of the WBC belt just to keep his imaginary lineal belt and the ring magazine (who cares) belt. Also, you should go ahead and come up with some good excuses when Fury picks another gatekeeper or a straight up bum to fight next instead of his mandatory. It seems like it would get tiresome trying to defend a coke sniffing, nandrlone taking, covid faking, mandatory ducking, 1 title defense fraud. But hey, whatever works for you idiot
