      Yeah most Americans are DESPERATE to not see Fury vs AJ for undisputed.

      It would be the final nail in the coffin for American heavyweight boxing.

        I really think Usyk is going to feel his lack of size in this one.

        He's going to be the smallest opponent AJ has ever faced as far as I know, and while AJ has had some issues with smaller guys before there's a difference between a Povetkin who is still a career heavyweight capable of one punch Ko's over elite heavyweights and Usyk who looks like he's lost a step and doesn't seem to have much pop against the big men.

        I don't have that much faith in AJ since the Ruiz fight or tbh even prior to that, but he's got all the physical advantages, plenty of time to prepare and I think Usyk has lost a step.

        If AJ can't win this one then I'll be very dissapointed, he should be able to win by just making it a physical affair, I'll be interested to see how Usyk reacts to the first right hand that hits him. And I think AJ should aim to land it very early. Usyk starts slow and if AJ can push him on the ropes and hit him with a combo it could be an early night.

            Which Americans? All of my American friends that know anything about boxing want to see this fight. And most of my American friends that watch boxing rarely support a boxer based on the fact that hes an American - its more about the personality of the guy.

Having said that the Fury/Vladimir fight was a bit boring for me. Just not enough punches got through.
              Problem with Shakur recognizing that he didn't do enough, is it's not the first time he's said that. I think fighting a Herring, Valdez or Berchelt would be a real rough night for the kid.

                I still think it's positive not to be delusional and call people "Haters" because they point at your boring fights. Maybe a higher profile name like those that you mentioned would push him to exchange even more.

                  In the UK only. In other places, Joshua vs Wilder will get more attention particularly with it being US vs USA.

                    Usyk's been holding back and looking beatable. Joshua will underestimate and Usyk's gonna pull the upset. Then once Wilder and Usyk have cleared out the pansy assed brits who can't put together an undisputed match for ****, Uysk and Wilder will.

                    Once again proving who the badasses of the Allies were.

                      Don’t worry. We will just need to deal with the “AJ just beat a blown up Cruiserweight who was already exposed by Chisora. Big deal.” It never ends with boxing fans you know they have an encyclopedia of excuses as to why some win wasn’t good enough for them.

                      Before that win, we have to read and hear how and why a fighter is ducking someone. When the fight gets made, we have to read about how the fighter who was ducking is going to either lose or how he chose the opponent at the right time to beat him and he is actually taking the fight to duck someone else (Luis Ortiz maybe?).

                      After the ducking fighter loses, we need to hear how he was exposed and how the group of fans knew all along and are amazing at predicting fights. If the ducking fighter wins, we need to hear about how the scorecards were too wide, or how the big bad opponent they were ducking was actually not good enough after all, or was too old, or too green, or too small, or too weak.

                      It’s a never ending cycle of boxing.
                      TRUEEE. This is boxing in a nutshell!
