Usyk does have a sense of humour
Exactly, I don't know how he's been able to get away with it and keep his belts!What's worrying about it? He's 35 and hasn't had a serious fight in over two years...
That’s not going to happen Sheebs. Unless he trains like a mad man Usyk will murder him. Expect him to dodge it now.Worrying as he will lose his undefeated record to one of the big boys and I want him to retire undefeated having beaten Usyk and AJ.
Disappointing - before this fight I’d have had fury to do him but he looked a shadow of himself last night. Never know though…!That’s not going to happen Sheebs. Unless he trains like a mad man Usyk will murder him. Expect him to dodge it now.
Nah. I wouldn't be so quick to write off fury. Ok he didn't train for this one and completely underestimated the rookie but he is still the best in my eyes.That’s not going to happen Sheebs. Unless he trains like a mad man Usyk will murder him. Expect him to dodge it now.
Boxing is so fickle isn't it. Yes he's been dodging the fights in the last year but who's he supposed to have fought ?!? Wilder was considered the best at the time and usyk has only just come on the scene as a big name. It's a shame he hasn't fought AJ hopefully that happens before he retires.Exactly, I don't know how he's been able to get away with it and keep his belts!
in the 8 years since he first won a world title he's boxed:
Sefer Seferi
Francesco Pianeta
Tom Swartz
Otto Wallin
Deontay Wilder x3
Derek Chisora
Dillian Whyte
Yet he's been able to hype himself to to the point where millions of people will tune in to a pay per view to watch him stink the place out against a novice boxer!
He will probably now find some way of swerving the Usyk fight, and take another 12 months off whilst still maintaining on social media that its everyone else's fault that he can't get a decent fight over the line.
Usyk beat AJ in Sept 2021. He’s had two years to make a fight!Boxing is so fickle isn't it. Yes he's been dodging the fights in the last year but who's he supposed to have fought ?!?

kind of where I'm at. he will come in lighter and far better conditionedDon’t read too much into last night.
Fury has always been inconsistent.
He delivers when it matters and will beat usyk.
Not in December he won't.kind of where I'm at. he will come in lighter and far better conditioned
not sure I mentioned December. I think around Easter far more likelyNot in December he won't.
More stalling, more faff, more endless big-talk bollocks. It's just so cuffing BORING.
I think Robbie Coltrane (RIP) would have had a go as wellI think Randy Couture out of retirement would have troubled Fury tonight!
Oh come on, apart from Wilder and maybe Whyte none of the boxers in that list you would consider to have been even top 10 at the time he boxed them! That's 2 top 10 fighters that he has faced in 8 years!Boxing is so fickle isn't it. Yes he's been dodging the fights in the last year but who's he supposed to have fought ?!?

I think the public are starting to see through Fury now. He is what he is, but I’m enjoying Usyk and his humour and outlook on life a lot more….and calling Fury’s bluff with the 70/30 said a lot about the man.Exactly, I don't know how he's been able to get away with it and keep his belts!

Nail on head, can almost picture it last week, the Ngannou team were told, this is what we’re paying you, unless you knock him out, whatever the content and context of the ten rounds if it goes the distance Fury will win on points.Was obviously in their contract that if it went the distance the Fury takes it, can tell that by Ngannou reaction. Wasn't fazed.
Fury didn't look fit at all.
I didn't say you mentioned it. But Dec 23rd was already pencilled in for Usyk v Fury, and OBVIOUSLY that has now been binned off till...well, whenever.not sure I mentioned December. I think around Easter far more likely
