    Fury is an easier style than AJ who literally just kept going to the middle of the ring and would stumble forward in straight lines with no purpose?

    Lol. I do like a drop of Whisky, AND Brandy but these days it's red wine for me for the most part.

    If it's good enough for him, it's good enough for me.

    Timed him coming in perfectly, great shot.

    Dillian didn’t do nearly enough to try and work to get inside, just tried to walk him down. Not enough head movement, not enough feints.

    If you’re happy to take a shot to get inside, there’s always a chance that’s gonna happen.

    Take nothing away from Fury though - took 1 round to figure him out and then was a shutout performance.

    True - Fury has the benefit of Whyte being overrated and in his prime compared to those other two.

    I was having some fun as my phone was still on the page with you comment when the KO came haha.

    I think he has more dignity than Chisora, who is just happy to act the clown and milk the paydays.

    Whyte will come back, but unless Fury retires or Joshua and Usyk are burnt out, he won't really have any chance at a title.

    Wilder, even now, could still one punch his way to a world title again. Whyte needs a complete reset stylistically to elevate himself.

    Whyte had the demeanour of a man who didn't really believe he could win, and so didn't really try to.

    If Usyk beats Joshua I honestly think Joshua will retire almost immediately and go into promotion.

    If Joshua wins then it depends on the manner of the win
    If he slaughters Usyk with too much power, Physicality and size then with all that Usyk contending with I’m not sure he’ll want another AJ fight

    Well I could go for Gold and crack open the Whiskey my brother got me for Christmas (Aberlour 14yr single) or the bottle of La Fée Parisienne Absinthe Supérieure. I suspect neither woild be a good idea as the beer is doing a solid job itself. I would prabably wet the bed which is something I've not done since the age of 3 so there is that to consider.

    This was bad. Whyte made Wilder look like an A Class boxer and that is something.

    Tyson looked a little off to me but did what needed to be done. Loved the uppercut and blatantly shoved ole boy down

    Literally looked like Whyte and Fury didn't even train for this fight. Utterly trash embarassing fight. Fat slobs

    I really thought Whyte would make a better fist of it pardon the pun. I think he just came in too heavy like Wilder did in the 3rd fight and just ran out of ideas unable to close that gap.

    He won every round against an (arguably) top-5 opponent, not even a mark on his face.
    And ended the fight with a beautiful uppercut.

    Not sure what else you can expect from an amazing performance.

    You don’t have to be as fast as Ali to be considered fast you know. Heavyweights these days are 240lbs+ on average, they’re not gonna be as fast, but there’s a reason 220lbs heavyweights haven’t ruled the division for years and if one does become champion it’s because of their exceptional attributes that make up for the size, but they do have to be exceptional
