but......
Pesky as that is, he remains just one of two undefeated world heavyweight champions in the lineage.
....for now anyway.
But my main props went towards Joshua in that post.Comment

"Until they make a lineal belt it’s just a made up title one is appointed".
The musings of a very young, very casual, and not particularly bright fight fan. The world is full of them.
Very few people who are intellectually limited actually know it, and you are way over your head here.
World history doesn't bend to your opionions by friend.

I don't understand what you're attempting to achieve by asking what I'd do. I'm not claiming to be the heavyweight champion of the world.
It's fair to compare him to the last great heavyweight champion, Lennox Lewis. He compares badly in my opinion, what's your opinion on that comparison?Comment

Fury mastery of this era? This the same Fury that got spanked by a bum ass UFC fighter we talking about?
All jokes aside, Fury is an overrated, hype job. Fury wins because he's big, that's it, nothing special about him.
And because of his big ass, size, Fury will most likely beat everyone in this era. Again not because of talent or skill but because of size.Comment

He most certainly did not clearly win that fight. I broke it down round by round. Can you do the same?
Thing is, we all know you're ridiculously biased in favor of boxing, and of Fury in general, this thread just being proof. I respect your knowledge, but I don't see how anyone can claim Fury clearly won that fight. I'd love to see you do as I did and break the fight down. I'm confident mine will stand up to scrutiny, even if you want to watch it on slow. There weren't that many punches. It's pretty obvious.Comment

"The title lineage is empirical and longstanding.The principles upon which the title was built and maintained have never been in dispute."
This is a clear example of a logical fallacy known as the "category error." You are talking about an abstract idea, based upon subjective interpretation of historical facts, as if that abstract idea was itself a historical fact.
The lineage of world heavyweight boxing champions exists in the annals of sporting history. It is simply a list of who beat who, when and where, in a world heavyweight title fight. As such, you can say that it has empirical, objective reality.
The lineal title does not exist and never has existed, except as an idea in the minds of people who think and talk about boxing. As such, the lineal title has no empirical, objective reality. Which is why this thread is now 8 pages long.
Nobody but a fool would support that "argument".Comment

So what, Mr. History denying alt theorist, is your acertion here? That the Heavyweight championship is a myth outside of the belts that the WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO, etc. Hand out?
Let's not lose sight of the issue while we sling insuts.Last edited by Willow The Wisp; 02-07-2024, 04:25 PM.Comment
