Who is the Lineal World Heavyweight Champ: Fury or Usyk?

Well, when he's in camp training for a fight, is actively trying to find an opponent, everyone is reporting that he is searching for one, including your writers, his own sanctioning org says they don't believe he's retired, and he tells you he's retired on a Friday ...

And 24 hours later is calling out the winner of Joshua -Usyk before the broadcast is even over, and on the Monday after the fight says he's back and, in the coming weeks, sells like 50,000 tickets to his next WBC defense, I think you have to really actively ignore what's going on around you to continue saying he's retired and insist on leaving him out of the Top 10 altogether for the rest of the year.

 

Fury was never retired, hence why he never relinquished or got stripped of his WBC title.

Fury never stopped being the lineal champion.

 

Ali was the most famous athlete on Earth. Fury is the clown prince of a dead sport.

 

Well, **** Fury for his constant bull****. He's no longer lineal, if he ever was, if it even means a ****ing thing.

Fury's boxing resumé is absurdly pathetic. He is lineal champion of ducking and that's about it.

 

He announced his retirement. That's it.

"Tyson Fury has vacated his Ring heavyweight title after he announced his retirement from boxing on Friday, Fury told The Ring Magazine.

Fury, 34, tempted a comeback on Tuesday, saying he'd return from retirement to fight Derek Chisora. However, three days later, Fury announced in a social media post that he had decided to "walk away" from boxing."

 

You need to watch the Fury documentary about his retirement from boxing.

 

Technically it's Usyk.

But at this point lineal doesn't matter, the two need to fight.

 

You left out the part where he Actually announced his fight with Chisora, sold tens of thousands of tickets, and successfully defended his WBC title against Chisora.

You also left out the part where Fury says he told them that so he could be a three-time Ring champ without ever losing their belt in the ring.

Nobody believed Fury was NOT one of the 10 best heavyweights in the world at any point last year.

Just like nobody thought he was really retired.

And even when it was clear he was not retired and was going to make another WBC defense in a big stadium fight, those guys at Ring still wouldn't rate him.

They became just another lame sanctioning org.

The Ring heavyweight champion is no longer the lineal champ.

The WBC heavyweight champion is. Ring consciously decided to be worse than the WBC ... and stuck with it.

The WBC didn't even believe him.

 

I didn't leave anything out. Fury announced his retirement. You don't like it, too f'n bad. Get over it.

(Ignoring everything around him.) Well, he said he was retired. I asked twice.

 

He said he was retired and wasn't fighting Chisora. Just because he told the WBC he wasn't retiring. Kept the title. Was in training camp while he told me he was retired. Announced he was fighting Chisora. Signed a contract, sold 50,000 tickets, and fought him ... doesn't matter.

He said he wasn't. So we won't rate him.

 

don't care dude... Fury announced it....it's his fault.

 

What's his fault? Everyone still knows he's the Lineal champ, even Usyk.
