    Yeah, yeah
    Fury is levels above Aj, but who cares? Usyk is the daddy

    Why did you unignore me? Was your autism playing up? Haha

    I gave Joshua 3 rounds in both fights.

    Fury did better than AJ did in the first, but a bit worse than he did in the second imo.

    Both behaved as bellends in the ring, but at least Joshua didn't claim he won either fight. And sure as hell no conspiracy nonsense.

    Fury performed better for me. He was boxing as himself whereas always thought Joshua was trying to be something he isn't.

    Fury dominated Usyk the middle rounds, I thought at one stage Usyk was ****ed

    AJ was never in either of his fights with Usyk.

    Fury was - and most certainly tested Usyk.

    Fury looked like he could win. But was also almost KO'd.

    Fury fought a better fight against Usyk. The fight was still anyone's to win going into the eleventh.

    Fury but I attribute that to the size alone. The reach and height difference allowed Fury to do better than Joshua. Still lost.

    **** Fury, but he clearly performed better than AJ. I thought Usyk might be in trouble after rounds 4,5 & 6, never once did I feel Usyk was in danger of losing against AJ.

    Usyk had quite a lot of facial damage after the Joshua fight (can't remember which one) which implies Joshua got to him more but maybe that's because Joshua hits harder than Fury.
    On another note the beating Usyk gave Fury in the 9th was beautiful to watch especially when you consider that Usyk was able to do that to fury whilst being a Silly sausage that was also a middle weight that was also born of a woman....that's a serious accomplishment

    Fury of course.

    But interestingly, he was also much more hurt as well. Even in the twelfth of the first round, AJ was not close to the dire state Fury was in tonight in the 9th.

    Fury by a long shot. He hurt Usyk and was winning the fight, and was in control in the middle rounds and looked like he was going to dominate. Joshua was never winning his fights with Usyk, never really hurt Usyk.
