    ****...imagine how Ustinov feels today. Just a few more hours and he would have been a KO or TKO winner over an overrated top contender. Ustinov's life would have changed.

    For Ustinov, the chance of a life time -- like taking candy from a baby -- disappeared just as it was about to happen.

    Yes.

    He would have been regarded as a top 5 HW because that's where Fury is.

    This wouldn't have been an easy win for him. Rather a 60/40 fight in favour of Fury.

    Ustinov was just too big, too strong, too durable, and too gritty for Fury. Fury never had a chance.

    I think the ratings should be adjusted to show Ustinov above Fury.

    Ustinov is garbage. 37 and his biggest wins are against a shot , 40 year old fat david tua and handing 42 year old monte barrett his 9th loss.

    the guy is pathetic and has almost now power for a guy his size :rofl

    This. Who pulls out after a staredown for any other reason than a blatant duck?

    Has Fury apologized to Ustinov at all?

    You don't know **** about it :patsch

    Tyson Fury ducked garbage in your opinion? Then he is utterly ****.

    Ustinov was going to destroy this guy and you know it.

    I cannot argue with your assessment of Ustinov, or his poor resume (though I would not go so far at to call him pathetic, the man is durable and game).

    But, then, if Ustinov is so pathetic, what does that say about Fury, who clearly bottled out of the fight?

    Ignoring for a moment his blatant duck, Fury is young, but his resume is nothing special! Chisora is his best win, and that was three years ago!! The biggest name on Fury's resume is Kingpin Johnson, but Kingpin has lost 5 out of the last 6 and his only decent win was over Seldon in 2005!! Cunningham would be the next biggest name, but he is basically a cruiserweight who endured a run of 4 losses out of 5 when Fury fought him (not to mention that USS put Tyson on his back). Yet on the back of his resume, Fury insists that he is worthy of a world title shot!!

    Tyson Fury is quite possibly one of the most overrated "fighters" to ever be mentioned on this site...and his duck of Ustinov (and Price before him) is just embarrassing for British boxing!!
