    He's a spent force.
    If he was not much of a force to begin with, that compounds the problems for him.

    Fury’s 2nd Best win potentially is a dead set hype train.. fact is Wilder has never beat anyone of note

    Yes he is.

    If you drink like that, and regularly, it's just impossible to stay 'prime' or close to that no matter if you are 35 or even 30.

    In fact, it's a miracle how Fury still performs on that level (I mean Usyk fight) with that lifestyle. Most would be a long-retired alcoholics on his place

    To me his legacy is a steroid cheat we will never know how much of his run was due to PED's and how much was him naturally

    Doesn't mean much. Chisora is probably the 4th best heavyweight Usyk ever beat too. Chisora is crap but I seen boxers with 1 losses who are crapper. Maybe everyone is crap though.

    Usyk has a pretty strong CW resume though and AJ probably trumps Fury’s resume as well

    I’m not a hater end of the day if he went from Wilder onto testing opposition he would have kept most his fan base but he didn’t

    A bit weak though, that is.
    You are implying Fury has a crap resume but only main thing can be said for Usyk is he beat good ones who weigh 199 .... and AJ only "probably" trumps Fury on resume. I'm open to possibilities that they are all a bit crap then. It can't be a fact that Fury is a hyped bum with no resume without the others being a bit **** too.

    Anyway. The thread is about how Fury is finished, done. Not whether he was also crap 5 or 10 years.

    The belts don’t mean anything when you have an undisputed lineal champion like Usyk. Usyk could be stripped of all his belts today and he is still THE Champion. The belts at this point are meaningless trinkets. They don’t mean a thing. To be THE Champion you have to beat Usyk. Winning the IBF or WBA makes you a paper champion.

    Of course. But THE Champion has a duty to defend against credible opposition too, if he is to be considered a good champion.

    The Fury we saw last month was the best he could possibly be at this stage. He's not going to get better for rematch. He's going to get worse. Unless Usyk's physical decline accelerates at a far faster rate than Fury's in the next few months, Fury has no chance.
    I would not pick Fury to defeat anyone in top 10 right now. He's through.

    He's an average champion or less.
