He came up short and hit the fence.. USYK hit the homerun and showed the world Fury is a gypsy queen.
Lets see donkey ko a few fighters with a pulse first is it, cos lets face it he's KO'd nobody in the top tier his whole career, you can't become the best puncher in hostory by knocking out 5th tier tomato cans fight after fight for a whole career, nah, not having it. He could be if he does it to a few top ten guys like he has to lower end fighters, but let's see, when he actually starts fighting some! I say that, but I dont know who mind, there's not many top fighters around the division so he could well look good there too.
Ngannou, Thor and Hrgovic are all pretty worthless wins at this point. AJ was exposed by Ruiz, Joyce was exposed by Usyk, Usyk is a cruiserweight and Ruiz was exposed by bodybuilder AJ. Compare that to taking on number one challengers Michael Grant and David Tua and making beating them look like just another job for monday morning. Coming back from the ko vs Rahman. Koing Vitali who by the way would have beaten mr AJ. And then ofcourse you have to calculate in the fact that after LL was gone Vitaly his whipping boy came to rule the division. Then yes, doing what he did vs Boogeymen Golota and Morrison and beating a prime Holyfield and, koing reigning lineal champion and future belt holder Shannon Briggs, making Akinwande hug and Mccall cry.... sticking it to Bruno in a domestic brawl and last and least but still significant was sending Zelkjo into retirement. I don't however consider the Mike Tyson victory and achievement. Fury with his huge size advantage needs to do something more than just beat the lineup that I mentioned if he wants to surpass LL.
