    Still think Fury beats both Usyk and AJ. I dislike Fury so it pains be to say this.

    At this point, he probably does yeah.

    A few years ago? who ****ing knows.

    Sadly this fight is like 5 years past the point where it should have happened.

    He might, but he clearly didn't think so when offered the title shot Chisora took. He had the chance and decided to 'rebuild'.

    Fury and Parker should fight, but I do think Fury is more talented regardless of Parker’s accomplishments. I just overall appreciate Parker kept competing against the next best competition available. I am not sure if he could beat Fury at his best. I give him a live chance against an underperforming Fury.

    Usyk is going to destroy any plans for a Joshua fight.

    Many (most?) here criticize the so called "triangle theory" in comparing boxing outcomes. It's not that if A beats B & B beats C that A beats C doesn't happen often. It does - but not as frequent as you might think it will. There are more than a few exceptions, some well known.

    So what's happened recently. AJ performed better vs. Wallin & Ngannou than Fury did (although both 2-0). Also, Parker easily UD Wilder.
    Now all of a sudden AJ easily beats Fury :thinking: Maybe he does, however too many posters are front runners on BF24 with short term memories.

    It's as if a sizeable number of posters are forgetting AJs three losses. I'll make it look bad as that's how posters make their points here. AJ was stopped vs. a shortish, tub of lard HW (with fast hands) and 2X to a (blown up) CW older than him. AJ has been a top HW for many years. I also think he's a great front runner. Dealing with adversity is not his strong suit. The last time he came back to win after some adversity was vs. a 41 y/o Wlad... seven years ago.

    Don't think so.

    The possible results on May 8th...

    Usyk on points
    Usyk by KO
    Draw
    Fury on points


    I don't\ think Fury by KO is a possibility.

    Don't even go there. Joshua just flattened two guys who beat Fury (I don't care about the official results). He's clearly, clearly, a superior fighter to Fury right now, no matter how much damage control you try to do. And calling Usyk a blown up old cruiserweight? Get banned for that comment. Complete disrespect.

    Always thought Fury was a bit smoke and mirrors. Vastly overrated. Wouldn’t be surprised in the slightest if Joshua smoked him.

    I've always thought that AJ is a harder matchup for Fury than Usyk is. Close fight.

    I expect Fury to beat Usyk convincingly and then we'll hopefully finally see Fury vs AJ.

    I've always felt this as well. AJ would splatter him. Wilder is useless, always has been and fury made a right meal of beating him 3 times.

    Why do you think this though? There's very little to support it now.

    This is looking more and more like the crowd who was convinced Hatton would beat Mayweather.
