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

[pollywog]

Usyk, Fury and Joshua are currently ranked 1-3 by pretty much everyone right now.

Why wouldn't you want to see any of those combinations? They're the best fights possible.

There will be opportunities for others. That's what mandatories are for.

No they're not the best fights possible.

Usyk v Parker is the best fight to make. It has international appeal and between the 2 top fighters who deserve their spot at the top.

Joshua and Fury is more of Usyks sloppy seconds for some UK bragging rights that no one outside of Britain gives a shït about.

It seems to be part of the general changes of censoring here, but I have no clue why this specific URL is not allowed (I learned it the hard way when posting Pick Em videos), maybe all of the shortened URLs are?

Seems like they all are. I tried posting a few and none of them worked.

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.

End of the day, Usyk is being stripped and his belt is being handed to one of two guys he's recently beaten.

Call that whatever you will.

Even if that's true, not every good fight needs to be for a vacant world title.

Nah...Usyk is still the undisputed champion until someone beats him. It really is that simple.

Well, no. The IBF disputes that so he's disputed.

Not Undisputed.

Fortunately the linial title is the ONLY title there is.
Belts are just a trophy.

I’ve seen Usyk v Joshua 2x. I’ve seen Fury v DuBois and Usyk v Dubois.

I do want to see Fury v AJ because it would be new. Otherwise, I’d rather see Zhang or someone else fight Usyk instead of AJ or Dubois again.

Parker will get his chance via mandatory.

True, but it helps to make the fight in the first place. At the end of the day, if champions fight their mandatories then it's a non discussion.

There is plenty of time to fight mandatories. One voluntary, one mandatory, two fights a year. Boxing asks less of its champions than any other sport.

Not when you have four belts.

I like Fury...he's battled a lot of personal demons but has remained one of the top heavyweights... and has done so for quite sometime.
He is highly skilled for a big man, he's eccentric, and he knows what to say to piss off his detractors.... quite a few here on this site. Lol.
