why are so many people fixated on Fury-Usyk?

    I'm perfectly serious just don't agree with your insane claim that beating AJ, Chisora and Dubous gives Usyk a formidable heavyweight resume because it simply doesn't and you are objectively wrong.

    Usyk has beaten one top 10 heavyweight
    Mike Tyson beat 10
    Wladimir Klitschko beat 12
    Holyfield similar numbers
    Bit of a difference don't you think.

    There is also age to consider. In a lot of legacy fights both or one fighter are prime whereas with Usyk and Fury both guys are already regarded as past it so both already have an excuse for losing unlike Ali Frazier.

    Adamek was arguably the best cruiserweight of his era so it was a heavyweight taking on his eras arguable top cruiserweight. Usyk is better than Adamek but you can only fight your contemporaries.

    Bakole hasn't had the opportunities Joshua has but he's one among several who I think might replicate Joshuas wins given the opportunity. Obviously Joshua has the better resume.
