Joshua's already been exposed in ducking Fury (and Ortiz, and Wilder) by his promoter: https://www.boxingforum24.com/threa...ucking-of-fury-in-bombshell-interview.694541/ Joshua would have found a way out in Fury's position, just as he did against the morbidly obese Mexican middleweight. Usyk ducked the heavyweight division for almost 8 years after winning his gold medal. He was 33 when he fought Chisora in late 2020.
It would be extremely embarrassing for boxing as a sport if someone who hasn't competed in it before instantly takes it over.
it's not just a KD. Calzaghe got KDed vs RJJ, but he put on a clinic that night. A one sided win. Saturday night was much more than a KD. Ngannou dominated the clinch, controlled the center, landed the clean and meaningful shots, clowned him with a superman punch AND raggdolled him into the suck d**k position ala Wlad vs Haye. Sadly the script didn't allow for Francis to take his rightful W, but at least he made a ton of money. There is no bounce back for Fury. 100% done and clearly WAY passed it
Lol the brain rot in the Fury fan base is real "Usyk ducked the HW division for 8 years" Lol you mean being in another weight division is ducking? So I guess Pacquiao and Mayweather ducking the Heavyweights too? Is that how you rationalize your hype train derailing in front of your eyes, after ducking AJ and Usyk for years? Tyson Fury was exposed no one else... because no one else ever cherrypicked so pathetically and performed so miserably in the history of the sport.... what a disgrace!!
Most of Fury's highlight reel consists of him arising from the canvas. See how good I am despite the fine China.
Yet Ngannou, the boxing novice, performed 10x better against Fury than the experienced pro boxer Chisora did.
Ngannou had the range on Fury despite the height difference and didn't need to press him inside. 83 inch wingspan - 9 inches more than Chisora and same as Fury. It nullified most of Fury's outside dominance.
Well no ****? I mean what do you expect? It was the guys first ever boxing match lol. You can't expect him to have the skill/experience of people who've been pros for years.
"So I guess Pacquiao and Mayweather ducking the Heavyweights too?" What a low IQ argument. Usyk was cutting weight to make cruiser, he'd been competing at SHW in the amateurs since he was 25. He was 207-213 lbs in the 2013 WSB, aka a heavyweight. But for whatever reason he ducked the heavyweight division until 2020. And because he was chasing Joshua ever since moving up via the WBO mandatory route, a Fury fight was only possible in 2023 at the earliest (especially as Usyk "wasn't ready" for the December 2022 date due to having "injuries" and "needing to recover and spend time with my family"). It's not speculation that Joshua ducked Fury. Read what Hearn was saying: "AJ shouldn't accept the fight, I'm not devastated that it's fallen though" etc. "because no one else ever cherrypicked so pathetically and performed so miserably in the history of the sport" https://images.daznservices.com/di/...5o8mv533v14bxx8d1f15uw.jpg?t=1104976108&w=800 I was saying before the fight that Ngannou was more dangerous than most contenders. It wasn't rocket science: "I told Ngannou after the spar: 'You can come to boxing no problem, this is easy for you'. Ngannou is one of the strongest men you will ever see in any combat sport." - Joe Joyce, 2020 "Francis can bang, he is very strong, I mean, who knows, he could knock Dillian Whyte out man." - Joe Joyce, 2021
It was your low IQ argument, that anyone in a different division is ducking Heavyweights... I just pointed out how stupid it was. Fury has been exposed , just take our "we told you so " as a man and go rebuild your dilapidated brain. Fury just ducked Usyk again, what happened to the 23rd? Absolute bum Also we know from the Netflix show he ducked AJ, he was caught on camera going all giddy when he was forcing his management to break off negotiations. So you can keep quoting out of context quotes all you want , whatever keeps you from jumping off a bridge pal.
"that anyone in a different division is ducking Heavyweights" I didn't say "anyone", I said Usyk, who was 213 lbs before he even fought at cruiser. I don't know why he ducked the more lucrative and prestigious heavyweight division for as long as he did but that's what he did. "Fury has been exposed" By this logic Usyk was exposed by Chisora, who according to this forum isn't as good as Ngannou. Joshua was badly exposed by Tony Galento 2.0 Andy Ruiz. "what happened to the 23rd?" That was contingent on the Ngannou fight going without a hitch. "Also we know from the Netflix show he ducked AJ" LOL. Typical Fury hater, watching his 10 episode Netflix series. "So you can keep quoting out of context quotes" Is that the best you can do? "Out of context"? Hearn saying "AJ shouldn't have accepted the fight, I'm happy it didn't happen" is cast iron evidence that they were never putting Joshua in with Fury last year. "whatever keeps you from jumping off a bridge pal" You assume I'm depressed. I'm happy it went the way it did, Fury badly needed humbling if he's going to continue.
Was Usyk the champ when he fought Chisora? did he claim to be the best ever, or was he still moving up with his second fight in the division? Did anyone outside of the Fury brainmelts thought Usyk lost that fight, he clearly won 8 rounds. Fury got dropped and barely won any rounds clean against a gassed out debutant with 0 wins and a 0 %ko ratio. Yes you quoting Hearns saying he's glad it didnt happen because it was a crappy deal is out of context obviously... Fury's terms where rubbish as they always are when he's ducking. I didnt watch his crap series, I heard the video clip of him forcing his managers to pull out at the last minute and him celebrating like he won the lottery, because he was scared sh**less So you just admitted Fury ducked again on the 23rd, nice excuse, keep buying them chump. It was signed for the 23rd and Fury will sue if it wont happen... will he sue himself just like he punches himself? I'm glad your delusions are keeping you off the bridge is all I am saying, God Bless all the best brainmelt
