Comments Thread For: Fury 'Not Bothered' by Loss of IBF Title for Rematch With Usyk

[thack]

Nobody in their right mind , and there are are few on here really gives a dam about the domestic dust up between the losing pair to the current real champion.Let them have their payday at Wembley but both can only look back at their losing efforts , one by stoppage the other TWICE ! Tyson is on the slide for sure but Usyk is older , the difference is one has been pristine in his lifestyle the other not.For a lot of the fight Tyson looked sure to end Usyks run , the same could never be said for the other pair of gatecrashers at any time ! He let it slip and was badly hurt in the ninth , has he still got it in him to stop the clowning and stay switched on for the whole twelve , I'm not Sure but what is sure, is that he's looked more capable of defeating Usyk than the sorry pair fighting for the 'paper' title

Wrong: the winner of the rematch will be a unified champion. Period. This gaslighting narrative is not only incorrect but ******. Since Usyk has voluntarily vacated the IBF belt he is no longer the undisputed heavyweight champion. That is the rule of the game, sentiments can change that.

What is undisputed is the fact Usyk beat both guys vying for the title and never lost the belt in the ring.

To my mind that makes Usyk still undisputed.

That is complete sense to most!

This is real dumb. Both Parker and AJ won against better competition but I guess since Hrgovic was the mandatory he got the belt. Just proves that even someone like Wilder can get a belt randomly as well

Fury and Wilder > Anyone knocked flat out in their prime by the likes of Ruiz and Joyce.
But everyone has an opinion.

True but Usyk is being forced to voluntarily vacate.

With laws and rules, there is the letter of the law/rule and the spirit of the law/rule.

In this case, you’re correct about the letter of the rule. But the majority of fans see the spirit of the rule and realize Usyk had no choice but to vacate.

He will be seen as undisputed despite you being correct he is technically just unified.

[The Big Dunn]

Wrong: Usyk is no longer the undisputed heavyweight champion and the winner of AJ vs DDD is a legitimate IBF heavyweight champion of the world. The rules of game are paramount and should be respected. If AJ didn't honour his mandatory obligation towards Usyk he wouldn't be able to become the undisputed champion. He knew the rules but deliberately breached them for his own monetary gains. He can't eat his cake and have it.

Some of you so called boxing fans are the main reason why that there's lack of integrity in the sport of boxing. Favouritism and populism are not doing the sport any good.

If not for SA millions we would have ever had an undisputed heavyweight champion in this era since guys like Wilder and Fury have been thwarting any opportunity to get it done and some of the so called boxing fans were defending them.

What exactly are you babbling about?

I respect the IBF for sticking by its rules. I also think in this case it’s cheapening their belt because Usyk doesn’t deserve to be stripped imo and will have beaten whoever wins the IBF belt.

Where did I defend either for preventing a unified, undisputed champion from being crowned?

To be fair Fury has said many times that he only cares about the WBC and Lineal title, he said if he beat Usyk he was going to immediatley vacate everything but the WBC and I think he meant it.

He'd like the status sure but I don't think he'd lose sleep over it.

The rules have to be applied equally and fairly, I thunk it's the right move by the IBF, yes Dubois is rightfully seen as a lesser champion but long term, following their own rules is good for the IBF, doing favours to fighters based on status has lead to the WBC having a dreadful reputation.

Say it with me: the belts don't matter.

I’ve said it all along, check my posts on this fool because that’s what he is, a fool.
few years ago, he said he would give his purse to charity the whole lot! Said the money doesn’t mean anything blah blah blah.
all that chit about “let’s buy and airport” insulting athletes in other sports (particularly women) what’s nice about him then?
what did he say to the Arab after this fight? How much money ya gonna give me?? What a complete kunt.
the fights-
klitchko fight about 20 punches were thrown combined, acted throughout like a total kok. Never beat the man in a boxing match, he beat him by poncin about like a total kok and should have been disqualified in my view, turn the tv off and throw it out the window if that’s what’s on offer I remember thinking.
further fights of note but not really-
he was KOd by wilder in the first fight, end of.
did very well in the second and third no doubt, BUT, a boxer was always going to beat wilder and that’s a fact and been proven since so was it really a big deal?
other fights of note-
NONE.
So that’s it, one fight as everyone has either been unheard of or fringe names, so why are they saying he’s this or that? He’s chit and always has been a big fat lumbering fool lolloping around being ****** but thinks he’s clever and guess what? Ngannou very nearly undone the kunt who then got crushed by AJ.
Do I need to add anything about the beating he got served by ANOTHER cruiserweight????
bye bye diddycoy, he won’t fight usyk and if he does, usyk will get the KO again. And if you’re asking why ko again? Yes KO!
ref grabbed usyk arm before the eight count which means STOPPAGE.
