    Are you gunning for irritating troll poster of the month? :facepalm: You do have lots of competition.

    How many of these top HWs face 3-4 top fighters in even TWO, THREE years? Some hardly fight 4X in two years.
    Try to keep it real :sisi1

    Heart?

    Fury was the one who had suidical thoughts for years, right? Didnt he have a wife and children to take care of?

    Suicide would have been a coward's way out because he couldnt take the mean words of the media.

    You would expect Fury to have more sympathy really.

    Joyce's ceiling is higher than we think. People think he is a dumb lumbering oaf.

    Look at his amateur pedigree and his professional record. It is stellar. Whatever he has done has been working so far.

    What about Joe Gans who quit because of an eye injury, then went on to win a brutal 42 round fight against Nelson at an unfavourable weight?

    You almost make it sound as if you were there back in 1906 when he fought Oscar Nelson. Your profile picture backs that illusion up.

    No one is seriously suggesting that every fighter who quits doesnt have heart. Or cannot show heart at a later date.

    I think the fact that so few high level professional boxers are prepared to quit, and do go out on their swords. It gives boxing fans the impression that those who do quit are somehow of a lesser standard or weak. That is not the case. I jest when I called Daniel by the name "Daniel Quitois Dubois"

    Plus the fact he isn't very good at numerous things.
    The way some fans hype fighters sometimes is a proper head scratcher.

    Both AJ and Whyte have fought or attempted to fight the best guys out there for years now. Imagine if AJ fought Wallin, and Sefari within the last couple of years and if he was trying to make a fight with Kabayel right now hahahhaa. People would fry him. But Nandrolone Fury does it and he is called the best out there??? Nah

    Fury at least had balls to fight vs Wilder in Wilder's backyard.
    Did your idol Wilder had balls to fight vs U.K boxer in U.K with U.K ref and judges? :D
    Wilder is hometown fighter.

    I'm equally critical of nearly all the top HWs. None of them fight as often as they should. They're doing most of their fighting on social media.
    I'd like to see them average a whopping ONE more fight per year. And nobody blame this on the COVID hysteria. The low fights per year trend has been in place for years. Focusing on Fury makes it look like you have an agenda.

    As for AJ, who I like, he's recently gone 1-1 with an obese Mex-American, tough and underrated mutha that he is :sisi2:
    And Whyte, who I find an entertaining BSer, was recently KTFO by a 40+ yr old super CW :dunno
