    One thing is certain, he won't Usyk call a middleweight ever again.

      Usyk didn't rag-doll AJ in 24 rounds like did to Fury in 9 rounds. Fury was completely defenceless in 9 and would have knocked out unconscious if the ref didn't save his ass. AJ will destroy Fury and he knows it.

Even going back to his very first KDs against Pajkic and Cunningham – those weren't off-balance flash KDs; they damn near finished him. Then obviously the 4 from Wilder, Ngannou, and now Usyk – again none of them flash.

        Hopefully they're giving him CT scans because he's taken a lot of brain-scrambling shots in the past 12yrs. He'll need all his faculties to bring up 8 kids in retirement, and that's when we know he starts going loopy.
        I knew he had a lot of kids but 8? That's way too many kids in this day and age. Fury has enough trouble taking care of himself. I feel sorry for Paris. She probably doesn't have much say in the matter. I'm sure it's what Tyson says goes. At least a couple of those kids are likely going to have John's personality to boot. God help the UK!

          I don't think he's in the top 10 of all time greats. He just quite simply doesn't have the resume. I'm not sure if that's what you meant.

            Yes, it's like fury believed if he landed his best shots, then usyk would crumble?.But instead usyk regrouped and came on stronger.
            Fury knows how tough usyk is now too personally. Although after taking Josh best punches for 24 rounds, you'd think fury would know it already

              Mentally damaged goods. Loses his 0. Loses full stop. Loses his belts. Loses bravado. Has found out he is only second best. That's a lot.

                If fury cuts out the clowning around and just stick to boxing like we know he is capable of he wins a clear decision.

                  Do we? How have you come to that conclusion.

                    If Fury, as it looks likely, will also lose the rematch, his level in the HW history will be comparable with that of Riddìck Bowe. Hopefully he won't kidnap his own family one day.

                    PS the AI was censoring "dìck" in "Riddìck"

                      So many of Fury's knockdowns are his own damn fault for leaving his hands too low. It works at times, but he gets caught sleeping and it's the price he has to pay.
