Boxing site , it's more like a hate page .It was another very close fight where Fury had more success than Usyk .a round either way would have done .Usyk simply did't do enough to win by four rounds.I get the feeling there's a lot of sore Joshua nut - huggers around this thread . This result was nearly as bad as Dave Allen's .

With all the physical advantages Fury has over Usyk, nobody should be complaining about the result.

Real boxing fans are the true winners of the Usyk victory. Money forces were positioning hype job fraud Joshua for Fury had he won. Losing 18 of 24 rounds to Usyk then getting anally violated by Dubois should push any fighter to the dumpster. But when you have a nation desperate for stars like Britain, getting beaten over and over and over means never having to say goodbye. You see them on this board - referring to Joshua by the cute girlfriend name “Josh.” Well Usyk ended the Joshua farce forever. We owe him thanks

He got outlanded in 10 rounds and couldn't even get momentum going his way for an entire round. Not sure what fight you watched. Let's see you provide a detailed breakdown of the fight justifying even 5 rounds for Fury...

You're right that Allen got robbed though. That man left it all in the ring and deserved the win.

It was a fair result - no matter how many rounds Usyk won by. Also like the article says, Usyk had all the physical disadvantages. If Fury is not clearly winning the fight in those circumstances while wearing those cheating shorts and beard, too - no judge is going to look kindly upon him.

Fury should have gone for it - really put it on Usyk but he just did the same as last time but slightly better. Same mistake AJ made. If Fury had really accpeted he had lost first time round then he might have actually changed things for this fight. Victim of his own arrogance...

No need for a third fight. I think the Saudis feel they’ve gotten all they need to from Fury - at much expense, no doubt - and don’t need to deal with his boorish act anymore. They can put Jai in with Usyk, or DuBois/Parker or Zhang. And unless he’s made to do it, I doubt Fury fights AJ. I think he’d rather retire than risk losing to AJ and have to deal with hearing about that for the rest of his life.

Maybe you have a mini heavyweight tournament, where it’s Usyk vs Dubois/Parker, and winner of that one takes on winner of AJ vs Fury. I know that haters will pipe up but it makes business sense, and those are all fights I would happily watch.

I think Fury might want to fight at least once more and go out on a victory.

Whether that's a third fight with Usyk, which seems unappealing now, a bout with Dubois or AJ, I think one more is what he'd do.

With Fury though, you don't know. More money is not something Fury or Usyk need. Even Joshua, he's sorted for life.

Fury had 2 fights with Usyk and loss both of them. He fought the wrong style against Usyk. This rivalry is over. Fury is now at the contender status. He is a good but not great fighter. Usyk is a great fighter.

Usyk is the real “face of boxing” right now. He fights the toughest possible opponents and doesn’t come up with lame, arrogant excuses to duck them (unlike Canello, Inoue and Tank). And he doesn’t waste valuable time in his career by getting involved in ****** stuff away from the ring (unlike Ryan Garcia and Tank again). As for Fury, I think the Saudis are through with him, though if Fury begs them enough, they might bankroll Fury-Klitschko 2
