        The three year period where fury was an obese, alcoholic druggie would have done untold damage to his body.

        It's not an excuse for the losses to Usyk, which I believe we're more due to the difference in mental strength than anything physical, Usyk is just mentally far stronger than Fury.

        But yeah physically fury is older than his age, there's no way you can live the way fury did for multiple years and it not do serious damage to you biologically. Honestly Fury is probably headed for a heart attack in his 40s/50s if he's not careful once he retires from boxing, I expect him to properly go to seed once he's not doing training camps any more.
        To be sure, Usyk beat a Fury who lost his true dedication to the sport a good while back. He got really fat and out of shape after the third fight vs Wilder. One can't expect to be in peak fighting condition when spending most of the camp trying to get rid of a load of fat. And, he was seen drunk off his ass, stumbling around last year. An active fighter can't live like that and be in top shape.

          Thanks for being logical

          Fury is hated and despised by many, and they aren't capable of being subjective.

          It's fury's own fault for his lifestyle and attitude to training but he is 5 or 6 years past his best at this stage.

            For sure...

            Off my boxing eye he didn't beat fury more convincingly than francis ngannou... although I grown to love the cagey champ I still don't know how to read his power level or where he is at

              Well, it's hard to keep track of how many times Fury has been knocked down
              In boxing years, he's worn out

              To be honest, Fury's success is based on his freakish size advantage over everyone
              The skills have always been so-so

              Nonetheless he's gotten the spotlight, because he's seen as the 2nd best in the weakest era of heavyweight history

              Let's be honest, Usyk wouldn't have been able to do any of that vs the prime HW of the past
              He barely beat Fury

                    Fury 2.0 lost to John McDermott and 3.0 was extremely lucky the ref didn't stop the fight against Otto Wallin (definitely would've been stopped the other way). Wallin also gave him a brutal beating in the 12th round of that fight. Tyson hanging on

                      Wallin' stunned Fury pretty clearly in the 12th round. People seem to ignore that fact.
