Why is Tyson Fury doing this?

[buddyr]

is Fury better at using his size than AJ was?

When Fury is fighting a smaller man, he doesn't try to outbox him, he leans on him, holds, fights dirty, and uses his height. AJ fights like he's my height of 5'11"

I never thought much of Wilder, to be honest. And when Ruiz obliterates Ortiz this weekend, it'll be evident that Wilder was garbage. You can't be good and go life and death with a 50 year old boxer.

I'm saying this because Wilder is arguably Fury's best win. Personally, I think Klitschko is but many believe Wilder is his best win. And if that's the case, what would it mean for Fury's legacy if he loses to Uysk?

To be fair, Ortiz had been folded twice by Wilder. So Ruiz beating an even older version that’s been stopped twice wouldn’t say a huge deal. Ruiz should be expected to finish off Ortiz at this point if he’s any good.

For the record, I never massively rated Ortiz. He obviously had some ability and power, but he was a bit overhyped being Cuban. Take his exact resume, stick it to a guy called Tony Anderson from Ohio or something instead of Ortiz from Cuba, he wouldn’t be ranked any higher than guys like Breazeale.

Although his win over Jennings was impressive, considering Joyce and Wlad couldn’t do that to Jennings.

I always felt Ortiz would be a tricky fight for many of todays basic heavyweights but never rated him as a fighter that could be a truly top 3 in the division.

Yeah. I mean Ortiz could have been huge, to be honest. What's his name, that matchmaker ... Rick Glazer. He's come out and said that Ortiz is not 40 years old. He said he's like 51 or 52 years old. He was being serious. Without a birth certificate, can't say for sure I guess. But Rick is probably right.

Anyway, I hear what you are saying.

Fury must beat Usyk to prove he is the best in this era. That is called the legacy.
