    The guy who spent 3 years out the ring 350 pounds addicted to drugs then dropped all that weight in 12 months to fight a guy who is "mos definitely" the most explosive HW of all time then woke up like the undertaker because when god is with you who can be against you. Amen.

    Is it bravery? eh not really when you're a born and bred fighting man with off the charts bipolar disorder.

    Even when Fury goes into a fight he expects to lose he'll find a way to win because that's what champions do.

    I'd be the bravest man on the planet for a £30-50m payday against a bodybuilder when your lifetime earnings are something like a handful of millions.

    To Usyk all of this isn't bravery it's just doing what he knows how to do best. The heavyweights are a challenge for him and in his heart even if he fails at the challenge he would be content. He has nothing to lose. Everything to gain.

    Usyk & Fury arn't brave. They're just simply the best, better than all the rest.

    Usyk will have to show bravery, heart and courage to overcome Colossus Titan Fury. But now's not the time for fear, That comes later!

    Bodybuilder would bench press your 150lbs body a million time and send it to Fury. Then the Gypsy might consider stepping into the ring with Oluwafemi.

    Bismillah.

    Derek Chisora :

    Fury x 3
    V. Klitschko
    Pulev x2
    Usyk
    Haye
    Helenius
    Whyte x 2
    Parker x 2
    Kabayle

    The man fought everyone, never ducked anyone and always came to fight.

    Insane resume right there, give the man his due. He is one brave human w/o a doubt.

    He ducked Hrgovic a couple of years ago. And Chisora usually fought at home, where he was the beneficiary of some British stoppages back when he was a Warren fighter.

    The bravest fighters are Oleksandr Usyk, because he won all his titles (at cruiserweight and heavyweight) on the road, and Carlos Takam, who faced people others avoided.

    I think Joseph Parker deserves a good shout. He's fought some of the best of this era.

    When Fury sidesteps Usyk and fights big stiff idiot David Price, is he still the bravest fighter at HW?
