he was like i need 4 or 5 fights before i face anyone legit...wilder comes along and plunks 10 million dollars in front of him...hmm deal! wilder goes on to lose and admits he picked fury because he was coked up and outta shape. mind bobbling
Well let's try to keep it into perspective. His comeback is nearly 3 years old now and the only legitimate opponent he's faced in that time is Wilder, who people are now saying was overrated
Um beat Wlad and put him to retirement, went thru his own tribulation, came back and drew then KOed the current American Top HW....
Um yea....
Perspective means everything and its makes Fury basically a future Hollywood biopic in the making.
I was quite confident that Fury's comeback would be a big failure. I can't think of another fighter that has come back after the kind of troubles that he faced. One thing I've learned about Fury is that he is leaning towards crazy and sometimes craziness can push you to great heights. He will always still have that mental instability though, and that can lead to a great downward spiral similar to the one we saw after the Klitschko fight. He seems to have himself in a good mental place right now and he appears to understand how to maintain that.....but there is still a possibility that he will falter at some point...If he truly wants to be remembered as a great he can't afford another great fall.
did you see him being champ again
https://www.premierboxingchampions.com/sites/default/files/Fury_square.jpgOf course, I did. Should anyone be surprised? So why are you trying to make this like it's some type of amazing feat?
After all, he only defeated Deontay Wilder; Whom according to most boxing fans and Wilder haters weren't shit anyway. So what's the big fucking deal?
He was just your typical, over hyped, American shit house dosser with an inflated resume and no boxing skills. Besides, this is a very weak era of heavyweights anyhow.
Tyson Fury did what he was supposed to do. Therefore, he doesn't get a brownie point for his comeback.
No I didn’t think he would be, especially when he was cherrypicked by Team Wilder after fighting two bums. I didn’t think it would fair for him to fight anyone in the top 5 HW at the time. I didn’t even want him to fight Tony Bellew who was hell bent on cherrypicking Fury too like Wilder did. But Fury did better than I thought. So kudos he proved me wrong by outboxing Wilder and only getting a draw for that effort. I thought he needs 4/5 tune up before fighting anyone at the top and that never changed in my mind. You could see the difference when he has had 4 tune ups, he destroyed Wilder..
Nope. Not after becoming a fat piece of shit so it's really impressive.
Too bad you're still garbage.
:dance:
you still can't get over that Wilder lost huh?
Yes I did, but i always saw Wilder as a tough stylistic match up for him.
I did not see the second fight coming, I knew he could break Wilder up on the inside in short bursts, I didnt expect him to push him back and beat him up consistently like that, he exposed Wilders engine

Wilder could demolish the stiff and predictable AJ so he's hardly that bad. He's just got awful boxing skills.
No not at all. That's what makes the man so great. Even if he loses his next fight what he's done already was unprecedented enough to make me remember his achievements for as long as my memory serves me.
No. Expected him to be damaged coming back considering what he went through mentally and also physically during the time off. I know he had tune ups etc but usually when a fighter has to lose so much weight and especially when they get into drugs it usually is very detrimental.
I wasn’t shocked he outboxed Wilder in the first fight, but it was truly amazing he got up in the 12th round. I remember watching it live and I told my buddy before the 12th round that Wilder would knock him out or at least down in that round. We were trying to bet on that, but the bookies didn’t allow it haha. But then when I saw the knockdown I was like “holy ****” and couldn’t believe he got up. I also expected the 2nd fight to be close again so he gets a lot of respect from me for winning in that way.
As for Wilder. Easy to say he’s overrated and was never any good now. People weren’t saying that at the time. Fury deserves a lot of credit not just for beating him but beating him down. I respect him a lot for that and of course for overcoming mental health issues as well.

he essentially trolled his way to a title shot against Wilder.
Wilder straight up cherry picked Fury thinking it was going to be an easy win
it was the worst decision he ever made, cherry pick gone wrong
