    I know I'm in the minority but I happen to believe that Fury is one the best h4h heavyweights of all time.

    I'm taking nothing away from Usyk, I respect everything that he's achieved in boxing, but this a mountain that he can't climb.

      Fury is gonna bully Usyk and probably knock him out, mad how he struggled with chisora beat a limited AJ and now he's suddenly king of the division and gonna school Fury? the haters are delusional can't wait for this fight to happen, i wonder who the next dude they come up with to beat Fury i know it was Hrgovic at one time till he got exposed.

        Ive heard that before from other people I know who like boxing. To be fair Furys size and skill will give anyone a problem in any era.Having said that I still feel Muhammad Ali skill wise looked the more naturally better fighter?.

          Yeah for sure, Ali before he went to prison was poetry in motion. Could he have beaten the 6ft8 280lb Fury though?

          Fury is a problem because there's never been another HW in history with his physical attributes, he's a giant, yet mobile with great footwork, his judge of distance is outstanding, he has a great jab, he can fight from either stance, he's got the heart of a lion and inhuman powers of recovery. He's got amazing boxing IQ and knows how to fight inside and make it rough.

          If Fury is at his best in prime physical condition, just don't see how anyone could beat him outside of a lucky punch. Lewis probably has the best chance.

          Just my opinion of course, i know many will beg to differ!

            What a shame, but Usyk can't run forever.

            Fury by KO

            Whenever I see Fury and the word "duck," all I can think of is Fury failing to duck his own punches

            He looks very intimidating, doesn't he

              You keep posting that gif, and i'll keep reminding you that Fury was a 3-0 rookie and still learning his craft.

              For relevance, here is a gif of the then unified HW champion punching himself in the face.

                Mad how people have to bring up stuff from 10 years ago such at mcdermott just to discredit Fury who is now a very different/much better fighter, we will see when he beats Usyk not even the haters can say anything then until a new "boogeyman" comes out of nowhere.

                  My favourite sporting moment to date was the first Fury v Wilder fight. Way Fury got back up in that 12th round was inspirational. Ive a feeling a prime Fury would of beaten Lennox Lewis?.

                  I still feel though Fury could a learn a thing or two about professionalism from Usyk though(my favourite current fighter). Doesn't from what I know go on drink benders after victorys ,respectful to opponents. As noted though nothing in life is perfect and there is always room for improvement for any fighter be it emotional ,physical or technical.

                      Yeah. And while Fury was busy learning how to box after punching himself in the face, Usyk was in route to win gold at the Olympics. There's levels my guy. Levels.

                      (BTW: Klitschko's punch was deflected by the elbow block, something he could neither see nor expect. Fury punched his opponents high guard and practically missed it. I think I'd rather be Klitschko in this instance.)
