    Both Wilder fights. Most people can't take Wilder's power.

    most people outside the top 10, cant take wilders power. wilder never beat anybody. as soon as he stepped up to top levels, which is where fury is, he got slapped around. and will continue to get slapped around, because he cant box. the fact fury struggled like he did is evidence of underperforming rather than dominance. he didnt even rise to parker level. tomorrow its fury stepping up a level, to elite levels. and hes gonna get found out.

    He struggled a bit in the first fight because he was still on his comeback trail and wasn't in great shape and still beat him. The third fight he had personal problems and still found a way to win. The second fight a fully focused Fury demolished him.

    yes, but it was still wilder. thats my point. both fury and wilder protected their marketability by avoiding the real threats their entire career. got the title on a fluke and buried it in the back yard. wilder with the wbc, and fury with his mythical lineal. they became multi millionaires getting you to buy into the schtick. they finally got corralled in the corner and are getting found out.

    In AJ's own words

    "I'M NOT A 12 ROUND FIGHTER"

    LOL

    You can't beat Usyk is you're not a 12 round fighter

    Fury is a 15 round fighter

    This always confused me because if he's not a 12 round fighter why has he been saying KOs aren't that important to chase and he'll just take opportunities if they appear. Mr Blobby put the fear of god into him

    There is one simple way to describe the situation. Joshua is allround good; perhaps very good. But not elite. He is like a fitter- more commercially backed Dillian Whyte. And im being gracious here.

    Fury is a little more versatile than Joshua and can rely on his defense better. If things are not going well he can change and adjust better. Although the more I see how the Furys are acting, I want Usyk to win now. John Fury and that headbutt was uncalled for. Why is he acting like this? Usyk is so calm and respectful. I get press games, but respect has to be followed.

    In many ways he is though. He is a bigger puncher, a better finisher, throws faster combinations, has better balance etc. And he has the much better resume of course.

    "Resume"

    I wonder whether this Hearnian nonsense will endure if Fury beats Usyk. "But AJ's resume doh!"

    Fury will use his longer reach to keep Usyk at bay. He needs to have a good gameplan.
