    Spence...really? I would put Gonzales (choclotito) over Spence. I've never considered Spence as a good defensive fighter tbh

    Before people say Fury just remembered a guy ranked outside the top 40 hit him 127 times over 12 rounds and arguably should have got a TKO stoppage due to the severity of the cut.

    Ah so a man who is having a bad flat night gets cut early and switches his gameplan to bowl forward offence gets hit = must have no defence

    Cool story bro.

    I'd like to see you fight with a vagina above your eye whilst you're on your period.

    Never said he had no defence just said his defence is ridiculously overrated and in my opinion certainly doesn’t deserve a place over guys like Bivol, Canelo, Loma, Haney, Shakur or Usyk(at cruiserweight).

    Tete suffers from having a bad chin in a stacked division full of very skilled power punchers, not a lack of defense

    Shout out for Hughie Shades of Ali Fury.

    Hughie is difficult to catch clean which is why he's never really been hurt. He got great movement and distance control.

    Shame my nan punches better than him.

    He didn't show much defense in the first round of the WBSS, he couldn't avoid the right hand if his life depended on it. Then against Casimiro he gets clobbered again.
