    Yeah mate I think you're right there. Wilder vs Fury, then the Usyk/AJ rematch. It seems whenever a undisputed fight is close, something happens to push it a little further down the line.

      Fury’s good but his body is too big. It almost occupies the full ring thus it becomes boring.

        In real fights, the best recipe for great fights is to put the best fighters in the ring, regardless of styles, and then see what happens. You put two punchers in the ring, they can be scared of each others power, and both fight conservative, and make a boring fight. You put a puncher vs a boxer in the ring, and if the puncher can't catch up to the boxer, you can get a boring onesided fight.

        You just never know. So this whole "that would be boring" idea, ahead of time, is ridiculous. If a show hasn't happened yet, you don't know what it would be like. Even if it's boring the first time, it may be different the second time. The first GGG-Canelo show was a huge letdown, super boring, whereas the second fight was sort of average. Still not very good, still a big letdown, but a big improvement, and the fight played out much differently.

        Usyk vs Fury would be a great show. Freak of nature, athletic, skilled 6'9 heavyweight vs cruiserweight/heavyweight Lomachenko. It's a very very unique show in the history of "Boxing." Based on Usyk's chin so far, he will be hard for anyone to hurt, but contrary to what Roy said, both guys can hurt each other in that fight. And Usyk is too good inside to be nullified in the clinch. There should never be a Usyk fight, vs Fury or anyone else, where he is not landing explosive, clean, powerful punches, which will make for an entertaining fight.

        This is the fight to make. But I still assume AJ will win the rematch, and Wilder might beat Fury too.
        I don't know about that. I get its uncool, and leaves you vulnerable in an argument to say you liked something- but I thought GGG Canelo I was a very good fight. The only bad part of that was Adelaide Bird's card, which stained the whole thing. But the fight itself was very entertaining.

        I get that its best to go the hipster route, and say that you don't like something that was popular and act better than it; but I'll play the part of the mark here and say GGG Canelo I was a very good fight. Leaving myself open for the "YDKSAB if you think that was good" retort.

          It might be boring to some but I want to see the two best and most skilled HWs in the world by some distance go at it.

          Give me two highly skilled, in-shape HWs in a fast paced chess match over two out of shape slobs with their feet cemented to the floor taking it turns to hit each other any day.

              Usyk is superiorly skilled than Fury in every way possible, however I think that this would be a step to wide for Usyk. Simply put, Fury is just way too big for Usyk, if they were the same size I'd go with Usyk easily.

                RJJ talks bull**** here.
                At the end of the day Jones can’t stand that 2 white guys would be the extreme mega HW fight. Plus Roy is rooski stan —-> he has to talk trash about Ukraine in bits.

                  Is it me or is Roy just a hater? I mean even when he was commentating for the AJ vs Usyk fight, he was clearly hating on usyk and favoring AJ. One reason I hate DAZN is because they are bias and do not commentate equally with fighters. It's always nut hugging on AJ or whoever is signed with sky or whover is affiliated with DAZN.

                  if AJ won there would have been a ton of interviews, positive talk and do forth on dazn but instead after the fight there were crickets.

                  AJ has been a boring fighter since he got his ass handed to him by ruiz.. Actually before that. He's like a statue out there trying to be a boxer when he's a fighter. Usyk made that fight interesting. AJ has no killer instinct anymore.

                  The 2 best skilled heavyweight boxers usyk and fury and hater Roy Jones is calling that fight boring shut the F up! Mike tyson gave your fat ass a paycheck and could have sent you into a retirement home being fed through a straw.

                      I saw Fury in some very boring fights. He'll stink out the place if he gets his way. I think it's psychological, he knows he screws the audience too.
