AJ is good but....

[Toffee]

You're right.

Fury's always been better than AJ, but the AJ stans that went into hiding after Ruiz & 2 loses to Usyk are back to pester us again thanks to a few wins over journeymen & an MMA fighters, while Fury & Wilder have gotten old & decline.

If Tyson is anywhere near where he was when he fought Whyte just a few years ago, he easily beats AJ.

I never left. And I've always said that Joshua is the wrong matchup for Fury. Fury deserves a top 2 ranking. He's champion, he's unbeaten. But that doesn't mean there's not a style that is his undoing.

It's very little to do with form either - though I do think Fury may well be a diminished fighter.

What's not to like about AJ currently?

He's active, he doesn't fight once s year, he doesn't cancel fights with injuries

He's still grinding and developing

He's a professional

He's entertaining

We done the thing where everyone shat on AJ for a few years, stiff dosser, bum, glass jaw etc.

Well he's still here and his rivals are the ones who are falling by the wayside.

It is what it is, the same people who hate in AJ want to suck off hrgovic and Zhang and people like that who don't have 1/10 the achievements, the mind boggles.

What's not to like about AJ currently?

The A-Side rematch clauses.

The avoidance of Wilder, Zhang, Hrgovic and Parker.

Having Fast Eddie as chief ass smoke blower.

All a sides have rematch clauses. Non issue. Avoided wilder? Makes no sense. Must be a random ai generated post

The question is not whether you agree with me, but rather ,what's not to like about AJ. I answered from a personal perspective. In response...

I gather you like him having rematch clauses for every fight ?

You like that he never fought or unified with Wilder ?

And you like Hearn licking AJ's arse at every opportunity ?

AJ is the type of dude where it all looks good and he seems normal and everything is cool when things are going in his favour, but once he taste defeat or experience some kind of resistance, he falls apart FAST mentally. He is still the same old guy to me.

I need to see Fury put together another good performance before I believe in him. As it stands I think he and Wilder ruined each other and both are in heavy decline, and on top of that Fury is not training hard or taking things seriously.

[ELPacman]

I normally was an AJ hater mostly because of the Wilder shananigans, but seeing as how Wilder is basically out of the picture nowadays, I think I can back AJ. He did great for the sport and his stock as others pointed out, even if the fight itself was meaningless in the boxing ranks.

Let's not get carried away by his win over Ngannou. He did what Fury was supposed do except he actually trained and came in prepared. However I think AJ/Usyk 3 is a tossup due to Usyk's age. A motivated Fury beats AJ like he did Wlad.

Thoughts or am I wrong here?

Beat Usyk in the 2nd fight with a body shot, just like DDD and the cruiserweight. If the Saudis pay for a 3rd AJ will beat him. Did Wilder beat Fury in the first fight?
