    yep, as much as Fury sucks outside the ring he's still the lineal champion. With all these ABC belts and the horrible politics that goes along with it, I consider the Lineal HW champ the true champ. WBC has to force him to fight a legit top boxer after his circus match or strip the ogre, then pundits and experts will still have to argue if Fury is still Lineal if he gets stripped lol

      Yes! Ali got stripped by the WBA and they proclaimed Ernie Terrell the champion

      But nobody saw anyone but Ali as champion.
      Same thing.

        I know where you're coming from. But Ali has already whipped out the HW division. Fury has people standing line to fight him. Like Ruiz Usyk, Zhang. If he doesn't want to defend his title give to somebody who will. I'm a Fury fan. I'm just tired of his ****.

          - - Lineal drug cheat who ducked his biggest purses, Wlad rematch, AJ twice, and now Usyk.

              I think it's a mistake for Joyce to take this fight. Zhang hit him at will. I don't know what he can do differently.

                I'm not expecting Joyce to magically get faster and more mobile and defensively sound for this fight, but I still believe he can win. Its not like he got KO'd even though he was getting caught a lot. If he can survive to the later rounds this time theres a chance he will win the war of attrition.

                  - - Throw more punches.

                  Zhang ate every one of his punches last fight and has shown great vulnerability in the past.

                    I don`t believe Joyce learned how to move his head over night.

The only guy I think would be willing is Wilder. That would be a monster paycheck for both. The date for Chang vs Joyce is 9-23 in London.
                      The biggest question is if Joyce hasn't learned head movement by this age, it would be hard to suddenly do that in one training camp. The only positive for Joyce is that Zhang ain't that great or young or durable either, so if Joyce can reduce the number of times he gets hit and start hitting of his own, he has a good chance to win. Adjusting his weight may also help him in being able to take the punches until he can KO Zhang.
