    Imagine if Fury's had AJ's physical fitness mindset?

    Honestly its the sort of fight Fury and the HW division has been badly missing. These are the sort of matchups that make boxing great. Unifiers are for basic simpletons who don't want to learn anything new.

    Of course he would, Fury didn't prepare for that fight, he underestimated Ngannou and almost lost, although in my opinion he lost, Makhmudov would have knocked out Ngannou anyway...

    But then...

    Would Fury without his blase and cavalier mentality actually be the same fighter, or would he lose something?

    If Fury had more discipline and, for want of a better word, cared more about himself and his performance levels... Would that potentially take away from the tendency to be unfazed by difficulties and be unaffected by the bad performances?

    Most of fury’s career has been pointless fights.
