I never said he was afraid of Whyte. Until he fights Usyk/AJ then he can't get any credit because the people he has fought are garbage.
Gypsy queen don't get no credit for beating trash like Wallin, Wilder and Whyte.
If he beats AJ you will no doubt say AJ is a bum who got beat by a cruiserweight and a small fat fella. If he beats Usyk you will say Usyk is just a cruiserweight.
Fact is that he has now beaten reigning champs Klitschko and Wilder 3 times as well as guys like Chisora (twice), and Whyte who were long talked up by AJ fans as great opposition to have on a resume.
It's now certain that AJ fans cannot use the resume card against Fury.
Not after ducking Wallin he doesn't. Nobody wants to see it and Fury will get no credit for wasting his time slapping around a bum like Whyte. Fury will rightly go directly to the winner of AJ/Usyk 2.
Whyte knocks fury out cold. I’m just glad people think whyte got no chance cause then I can get good odds at the bookies and make some good money, gonna be a good Christmas for me
Fury isn't fighting Whyte. No chance of that fight, John Fury has already said. He's waiting for undisputed.
I'd say a combination of Joshua's upper body strength & clean punching technique, Wilder's right hand & heart & Usyk's footwork could be enough to defeat the Gypsy King.
What say you?
What you've just described there is Fury himself. Nobody getting close to El Rey Gitano.
Fury is a 6'9, 19 stone version of Usyk with more reach and power. With Wilder, Fury always had to be cautious of the right hand. He won't care about that with Usyk so he'll just rush him and use his size and weight. KO within 5 rounds.
December is 8 weeks away
highly unlikely they both would go straight back into camp 2 weeks after their fight
Usyk also has a cut that needs to heal
If they had it towards the end of December they'd have 11 weeks. Idk I just get annoyed with the huge unnecessary gaps between fights. I think the big training camp for AJ-Usyk and the small one for Fury against Wilder proved beyond doubt that big long training camps are the stupidest thing in boxing anyway. Joshua had a long training camp and still looked terrible.
Usyk may have been able to outbox a heavyweight with power but I doubt he'd outbox a heavyweight with power and boxing skill similar to his own. Fury can box just as well as Usyk, but with more reach, height and power. So yeah, you would have to say Fury.
Given he was creating such an issue about the gloves beforehand, I have no idea why he didnt just pick up a pair of the Paffens that Fury was wearing and get on with it.
He used the same horsehair gloves that Fury used albeit the Everlast ones.
Yes but he and his team were still complaining that the Paffens on the table were different to ones they had seen previously.
Had Wilder won the same guys saying it was a good fight let it be are the same ones that would have claimed Fury cheated and Wilder winning proved that and wouldn’t have even counted the second fight .:lol1:
What you mean? Why would Wilder fans be saying it was a good fight let it be if they think he cheated?
Nope. As others have said, his record is dogsh1te.
As someone on BT sport said recently: "Wilder has knocked a lot of people out, but who has he actually knocked out?" which is a funny sounding quote but it sums Wilder up very well.
It always seemed a bad business model to me, when we were told that subscription was the new way to watch boxing. I couldn't see how they would get the numbers required on the subscriptions, and it seems that has been the case. A large chunk of PPV money comes from casuals who are not interested in boxing enough to pay a monthly subscription for crap domestic fights. The only fights those type of people may actually be interested in (AJ fights for example) would have to be on PPV anyway, so there is zero appeal for those people as they don't gain anything.
The round was 3 mins like others have said. Not sure why the towel was being waved that close to the end of the fight, I doubt they'd want it stopped at that point and they wouldn't be celebrating their boy taking a beating either. Bizarre behaviour.
I mean, they were shouting "that's brilliant AJ" everytime Joshua got his nose punched in, so maybe they were celebrating their man about to get KO'd too? For what it's worth the round was indeed a full 3 mins. It was DAZN's time that was wrong.
Yeah, let’s go with that. Why not?
The ref didn’t count slow, or gave him extra time. He counted properly slow. He counted slow, but it’s his count that counts.
If the ref counts up to 10, in 30 seconds, that’s still okay. Rules says it’s ref’s count. Not a fan count or stopwatch. All these noobs just don’t know the rules huh buddy? But you tell them though!
Rules are rules. If people aren't happy with rules being applied, someone needs to start a campaign to change them.
There is more evidence for Wilder KO’ing Fury twice.
In the first fight, Fury was down after 10 seconds. In the third fight Fury was down after 11 seconds, and got a total of 15 seconds by the ref.
Usyk stopping Joshua in their fight is a real stretch, especially if it’s coming from fans who dispute that Fury got two long counts in his 3 fights vs Wilder.
Not sure how many times it needs to be said but it goes by the ref's count, not a stopwatch.
- -Either would crush any soft lads as yourself. What grade U in?
I don't know, I don't speak American bro. Y'all surfer dudes playin out here dude. Awesome.
Joyce admitted that Fury schooled him in sparring when he was 30 stone, and what's he ever done? Beat Dubois who was completely unproven himself?
The only guy Fury needs to beat to cement himself as the best of his era is Usyk/Joshua.
I don't rate Joyce at all. He has a half decent jab but that's about it. Little to no head movement, and he just seems very slow and robotic. I'd be very surprised if he can mix it with the best.
Fury
Wilder
Usyk
Joshua
Whyte
Wilder above Usyk because Wilder has only been beat by the no.1, most of Usyk's fights have been at cruiserweight and this is a HW list.
It was an awful fight, boring as fuck and they got booed by the crowd for not throwing enough. Neither fighter comes out of that looking good. It was Ajagba that was bad, Sanchez wasn't good.
