    Usyk is without doubt the best now.
    He has destroyed AJ and Dubois twice.
    I can’t say I’d be too excited to see him fight anyone other than Fury again. He’d easily beat anyone else.

    He’d likely beat Fury again, but at least it would be worth watching. Fury has the size, technical ability and heart to at least give him a fight

    You'd actually be excited to see him fight Fury again? First fight was epic, second fight they'd both figured out each others tricks and wasn't that great. Key thing is that Usyk won decisively twice.

    I'm just not interested in seeing it again. Fury will remain Usyk's best win but at this point I'm way more excited about different style matchups against contenders more deserving of a shot than someone who lost his last two, is well on the decline, and retired in a strop.

    Bring on Parker or Kabayel, or just retire and let th next generation take over.

    Fury did well in the first fight but I reckon Usyk would knock him out if they fought again.

    Don't want to see it again. He had his chance and lost clearly twice. Almost got KTFO too.

    Bring on Parker then retirement.

    John, we all know how proud you are of your son, and you have every right. But NO ONE wants to see Tyson lose to Usyk again.

    Fury not getting out of shape since his loss which was 7 months ago is a clear indicator of his intentions. If Fury has some fire left to burn then i'm interested. Whether he can perform or not....eh. The whole "I won both fights" mental space is poor though. Asking to get KO'd.

    Why?!

    We have a few fights left from a historic figure and we should 'use one up' for a threepeat?

    This time usyk knocks fury out. How could fury get any better please? Lost twice. All the drugs in the world would not help him win the third time when fury is certainly getting old quicker than usyk with his perfect living...

    Let's see meaningful fights. Kabayel would be most interesting, but parker is fine, too. Opetaia or I don't care Itauma. At least something new.

    Otherwise in 10 years we will look back and say 'it's only sad we didn't see him against more different heavies'

    And fury should find his pen and sign a fight with aj or dubois, but he is afraid to actually compare himself with another brit so if he lost he might not even be considered the best british fighter of his generation. Stop fighting the same fight over and over. Enough rematches!

    3 fights against wilder (ok the third was actually worth it, but allegedly it robbed us of the aj fight if that was not actually intended even then) ALL WINS
    3 fights against chisora (how useless was the last of them??) ALL WINS
    And now 3 against usyk???

    ALL LOSSES

    It would be very bad for the sport if they were to have a third fight but Fury had the best chance to beat Usyk though.
