    ... Fury has the rare talent and almost all physical attributes (as he is a giant)... He also is very intelligent...

    ... But let's be fair: he only beat a washed up 39 yo Wlad and a overprotected hypejob in Wilder... (and, of course, I would like to watch him vs AJ...)

      Why because he beat a limited fighter in Wilder? Some people really dont know anything about boxing on here and simply jump on the bandwagon...

        When people start bringing up McDermott you know they've lost the argument. Bringing up fights that happened a decade ago has no relevance today.

          I have always said Wilder is Michael Grant 2.0, see here:

          Talk about anything boxing related here. Where the boxing discussion is always Non Stop!


          The point is Wilder has been crowed the hardest hitting & most dangerous puncher in history, and feather fisted Fury absolutely merked him and took his soul, if wilder was so limited & it was so obvious what would happen then the odds would not of been 50/50 / Wilder as a favourite, you mong.

          sometimes you need to give credit where due.

            Not an argument.

            Wlad was a 12yr unbeaten super champion when Fury dethroned him in his own backyard. He wasn't shot because he gave the current unified champion all he could deal with and then some at Wembley stadium, he was unlucky not to beat AJ via KO.

            Wilder was a 5yr unbeaten champion who is widely regarded as one of the hardest punchers of all time and was universally regarded the #1/#2 HW.

            The thing is, there fights weren't even close, how many rounds did Fury lose in those 3 fights? Not many.....

              Usyk has skills, but he is far too small to do anything against Fury.

                The size difference was incredible. i thought fury was always overstating his height, but the size gap looked more than 2 inches, Fury was ****ing HUGE. nearly every time fury landed, Wilder looked buzzed.

                I have always been critical of Fury, i thought he had zero punching power, & have now backed Wlad and Wilder x2 to not only beat him but knock him out.
                I thought he was a one trick pony, one dimensional in every sense, but like great champions, he has switched it up when you least expect it and found another way to win.

                He is not only the no.1 heavyweight in the world but he is so far ahead it looks like it will be several years until we get to see a new champ.

                'Fluffy Fury' is suddenly a power punching monster!
                Nice to see Furys new commitment to boxing changing views.

                I was talking to another person who had played professional football yesterday.I think he summed it up when he said Fury would beat Joshua as he has more heart.Tend to agree.

If you've never listened to Manny Stewards interview about him, I would, there is some really good information in there. One snippet is that Fury would outrun everyone in the gym including all the lighter weight fighters...I think he must have exceptional natural stamina
                  Fury said he did some tests at Sheffield University and they said his lung capacity is nearly twice the average man

                  Might just be Fury talking nonsense haha but it wouldn’t surprise me.

                    Usyk gets hit a lot more than people care to admit too or realise.

                    Usyk is one of my very favourite fighters but he’s not some slick defensive wizard. He has some great skills, but not that hard to hit. His fights show that.

                    I do wonder how that’ll work out for him at HW.

                    Look at how badly Fury knocked Cunningham out. Cunningham has never been badly knocked out like that and that was pure size difference. A cruiserweight isn’t really built for being hit by a 6’9 man with even decent power.

                    Usyk openly admitted Fury would be his hardest fight at HW. Fury can equal his ring IQ and skills. I think it’ll be a simple case of a really good big man beating a really good smaller man.

                      Anyone can be beat at heavyweight. Fury looked great but remember how awful wilder is (and he was seconds away from winning first fight) Seems like you are only as good as your last performance in boxing, people were saying hes nothing special after the wallin fight.
