This thread is where we speak the brutal truth

Go on make a case for Joshua beating Fury...

I see your point I certainly wouldn't bet on it but a punchers chance is still a chance

He also tested positive for Nandrolone

I know where you are coming from there, but Fury improved tremendously after the Cunningham fight, so small, fast, and skilled might not be a problem for him now.

Fury vs Usyk is one matchup I find impossible to predict. But I saw an interview with Usyk saying that he and his team view Fury as the most difficult opponent for him at HW, because of the size and reach disparity.

yeah, I have a feeling it would be one of those matches where 90% of people complain about it being boring, but I love it.

Like Lara. Everyone *****es that Lara is boring. I love watching Lara.

The pressers and face to face stuff for Fury vs Usyk certainly wouldn't be boring. Usyk doesn't speak good English, but he's very confident and quick witted, like Fury, and good at raising laughs with crazy body language/facial expressions.

Lara's last 2 fights weren't boring, but he will never live down his performance in his biggest ever fight, against Canelo. He really did stink the joint out in that one.

and I had him beating Canelo too.

And yeah, Usyk is just so damned lovable too

If you're talking about Fury there, he tested positive for non PC opinions and was consequently framed on the basis of a false positive test result for nandrolone obtained 2 years previously.

Whenever brits dominate a division you guys always say its 'weak'. When americans run it its 'the best division'. Maybe u should stick to your american welter division cause thats so exciting right now lol

Brutal truth is they aren't too good. 2015 Fury would have KO'd Wilder or 12-0 UD'd him. Also would have beat AJ easily enough.

The best version of Tyson Fury still isn't a great boxer as far as technical skill goes. Very sloppy punches but he is relatively quick for his size, he gets too much credit for being a big guy that can move.

If you see Fury sparring and hitting the pads, he looks terrible like the technique just isn't there. He gets by because of his size and reach but this HW era fkn sucks.

Prime Lennox, Vitali and Wlad piss on this era.

More truths: Usyk overrated but still good boxer - he isn't saving the HW div. What he did at CW looks impressive on paper, but again, how are the guys he beat so special?
Andre Ward very overrated but still good boxer - tell me how his resume is anything special.
Canelo and GGG: Both overrated. Nothing special.
Mayweather: Noone can debate he is a great boxer - the GOAT though? Nah, you gotta beat fighters in their prime, NUFF said. Calzaghe beat Hopkins and Jones, so fkn what?
Loma: vastly overrated but at he same time a very, very good boxer. His chin will be cracked and his ceiling isn't that high, special effects fighter that dazzles casuals but that chit isn't gonna work. Likely gets beaten by Tank and Garcia.

Why are people letting this Chechen goat ****er spam this forum with his sharia law antics?

[GhostofDempsey]

I agree with your opening post Larry. I don't see anything special in any of the three. In any other era of HWs they get crushed. Which I guess puts them on an even playing field since the three of them are evenly matched against one another. Guys like Miller and Breazeale are really awful.
