So it appears that Whyte is now the man to defeat Tyson Fury

[Rodtang]

because it's another bs fight just like wilder 3 .. fury needs to fight usyk/joshua for unification .. time is of the essence .. these guys aren't getting any younger

Thats true. But its not available right now. So in the meantime he has to play the game and clear his mandatory. This is boxing.

[The plunger man]

I just feel he is. He has freakishly long arms, to nullify Furys dancing away from him. And he can box, as opposed to Wilder who can't. Joshua still beat the same guy and a better version, so that cancels that out. All Fury is living off if is 2 names and Joshua has one of them. He should try proving he's great rather than claiming it. If he does that then fair play to him, but until then, he's got a lot of work to do.

in the minority yes but let Tyson prove it ......beating wilder does not make him the best of his era....if he beats usyk and Joshua then undoubtedly he’s proven it and I will commend him fully.....but as of yet he has not proven it

The referee started deducting points from Chisora for no reason, thus forcing Del to open up and look for the KO, and thus being forced to leave himself open.

It's not just me saying this, go back and review the fight thread.

I remember one of Eddie's refs letting AJ call his own breaks not long ago.

Eddie doesn't employ refs. The BBBofC appoints a ref who is registered with them. Your knowledge on this seems to be lacking somewhat.

Yeah because there's absolutely zero corruption in boxing is there? These ridiculous scorecards/robberies we see every weekend are all just coincidences I suppose.

You appear to be very wet behind the ears.

He is already the best and has been for some time now.

See my sig, Fury is #1 by TBRB, Boxrec, Ring and any other ranking list out there.

Beating a bum like Whyte means very little.

Fury could retire tomorrow and still go down as the best HW of this era, and if he beats Usyk to unify then it isn't even a debate.

That's your opinion. And I respect you for having it. But he has to PROVE IT. When you continually beat only one top 10 fighter multiple times, all it proves is your better than that fighter. It's the heavyweight DIVISION. Not the heavyweight JUST ME AND WILDER DIVISION. The heavyweight JUST ME AND WILDER DIVISION is as credible as bridgerweight. So Fury better start fighting some real quality and stop talking the BS

He has proven it, that's why he's ranked #1 by the panels of experts who compiled all those rankings.

Some random guys opinion on boxingscene doesn't change the fact that Fury is #1

[Rodtang]

And that’s exactly my point if you can beat someone prove it......fury might beat Joshua but he hasn’t proved it....Tyson might keep usyk at bay with his long arms but he has to prove it.
Anybody can be the self proclaimed best fighter of there era but if you don’t face and beat the best in that division then others will argue with it.
Lewis was the best of his era because he beat all the top fighters of his era in Holyfield , Tyson , ruddock , klitchcko etc.
Tyson as champion has only beaten wilder , but as of yet has proven he can beat whyte , usyk or Joshua.

If he don’t face whyte and refuses to face him then he gets stripped like any other champion who refuses to face the number 1 contender that’s how it works

100% mate. It's not too much to ask is it? He'd never get away with it in a gypsy fair fight scenario. He'd have to man up and prove himself. So why does he think he can get away with it in the boxing world.

[Rodtang]

Whyte has freakishly long arms? Why can't he keep anyone off him then? How did Povetkin get inside and knock him out? How did Parker have him out on his feet and stumbling around the ring like a drunk?

The only people Whyte has ever outboxed is Rivas, a midget who still managed to drop and hurt him, and Browne, a complete bum who didn't even do any training.

Wilder must be able to box a bit, otherwise anyone with a big right hand would be a 5yr world champion. Rest assured, Wilder would leave Whyte in a stretcher.

Like I say, Fury is already #1, has been for ages, and even if he beat Whyte he wouldn't get any credit for it, just like he now gets no credit for beating a superior fighter in Wilder.

Keep telling yourself that. He still has to prove it.

Your making way more sense than that other guy Lmao.

I don't think so. So why don't they get one of Frank's refs for the Whyte fight. Or maybe see if they can rope in Mick Hennessey's ref that was used in the first McDermott fight. Have you heard yourself lately? I think your afternoon meds are wearing off.
