    Is Fury vs Usyk... Bum-disputed?

    Fury and Usyk, once excellent boxers in their prime, are now subject that old adage "you're only as good as your last fight" which is often contemplated following a poor performance, a loss or a controversial win. Both were the beneficiary of fight-saving gifts from boxing officials. Usyk was saved by the ref against Dubois. Fury was saved by the judges against Ngannou.

    Right now, they're real lucky to be world champs. Could they be past prime and on the decline? With their last fights being extremely controversial and highly disputed, has Usyk vs Fury transformed from Undisputed to Bumdisputed?

    Usyk totally outclassed Dubois. Fury had been called a bum after Wallin, but shown great performance after. Both guys are still the best in the division and this must be an excellent fight

      No. Put aside the "undisputed" tag (the WBO and WBA each have "dispute" and we know the winner will likely lose the IBF belt), it's still an excellent matchup. Just enjoy it for that.

        I like that Usyk is super motivated for the people of Ukraine and also to avenge fellow countryman Klitsckho's loss to Fury.

        Have a feeling it's gonna be an awkward clash of styles and may get dirty and nasty in the ring as both men are determined to win by any means possible.
