Question to those who claim Tyson Fury is still lineal champ. Would he still be if Lennox returned?

unfortunately uk sports stars have little integrity, they are not warriors. uk football team no guts. uk boxing is one big scam that taps into the desperation of the public that wants to to see anyone finally win at something.

 

uk does business differently then the us everything goes through the Queen. Home cooking for uk

 

Lennox Lewis retired 15 years ago and never returned. There have been a couple Lineal champs since he retired.

Tyson Fury was stripped of the Lineal title by RING in February 2018 because of inactivity.

They stripped him weeks before he announced his comeback.

Fury is going to end up having three fights in 2018, one for the WBC title.

Tyson Fury will have more fights this year than any other heavyweight in the top 10.

Clearly, RING jumped the gun, AGAIN.

Fans years from now will look back and see that RING stripped the Lineal champ of his title for inactivity the same year he was the most active heavyweight in boxing.

They are idiots.

 

The Ring heavyweight championship & the lineal heavyweight championship are two different things.

Agree that the ding-a-lings at The Ring fluffed it completely by "stripping" Fury for inactivity after he had announced he was intending to resume. But that's another story.

The answer to the original post is that yes, Lennox Lewis could come out of retirement, declare himself the one true lineal champion and his earlier claim to the lineal championship would take precedence over a later claim (although would not extinguish the later claim in its entirety b/c a new lineage was formed during Klitschko's championship reign).

But I take the view that a legitimate earlier claim to the crown takes precedence over a later claim - that's what title lineage is all about.

So if AJ & Fast Eddie want to pull a swifty on Fury & Wilder, all they need to do is come up with $100 odd million, lure Lennox out of retirement, have him assert his claim to the lineal championship (b/c a person with a claim to the crown actually has to assert it) and then fight & defeat him in the ring instead of the Fury v Wilder winner.

Let us know when that happens.

 

The Lion would knock The Bobbleheaded Clown's head off with a gentle swipe of its paw

 

To repeat what I've already said:

 

Tyson Fury tested positive for PED's

 

Joshua fans have become obsessed with the lineal championship.

Do yourselves a favour & take your own advice.

Come up with $100 odd million, make Lennox an offer he can't refuse, get him to assert his claim to the lineal championship & then get Joshua to face him in the ring & beat him.

Then you won't need to worry about what Fury & Wilder are doing.

 

AJ's nothing but a chemically engineered bodybuilder. He should be fighting in a yellow thong. Even at 52 the Lion mauls him

 

Yes Fury would still be the champ after he challenges Lewis, easily avoids his wide punches and turns his face into a 'Chisora II' bloodied balloon, forcing the stoppage. Then he would call out Vitali and easily outbox him. Wlad would be too busy kissing AJ's ass and submitting to his conqueror for social approval, while complaining about microaggressions on Twitter because Fury called him boring and keeps highlighting loyal Paris' pregnancies while Wlad's investment in a degenerate actress has strangely failed to work out.

 

Or better yet, how about a PPV seance held at Wembley stadium where the ghosts of Louis, Dempsey, Johnson, Marciano, Ali and Frazier can be summoned to defend their belts.
