He get his face pummelled if staying on the outside and what’s the difference between Fury’s height and AJ 

Not a lot in the scheme of things

But it’s ok for AJ to box Usyk but not Fury

You just making excuses for your agenda .

Its not Fury’s fault Usyk is just a blown up Cruiser Weight .

A very good one at that but just face it Fury is prob the best Heavyweight ever that promotors and fighters have dodged and governing body’s and promotors have tried every trick in the book to derail and destroy his chances and career .

Any genuine honest boxing fan or conissuir knows deep down who’s the real deal and it’s Tyson Fury.

( who would of beat Ali if they were both around as they were - are in the same generation )

 

Cant even be bothered........coward/hypocrite/shameless fool.....i wouldnt allow you to be in my company in the real world so wont entertain you on here......unless my insomnia is playing up you utter bore.

Boxing has become a circus. I remember Henry Cooper criticising the way the game has deteriorated back in his day. Its becoming more and more a farce each year. Benn could get hurt, it's a freak show. I won't be watching.

The game is going into dangerous territory in my opinion mate with some of these matches being made its only going to take a ring tragedy in one of these " made up " fights and you're looking at the end of the sport......is it worth it ?

This is partly why I'm now just a casual, casual fan.

The ducking, hype, false rivalries, altering of rankings to suit whatever organisation is promoting the fight etc etc, has left me pretty much pissed off with it all, Stan.

I used to be 'up' on all of it, especially from featherweight to middleweight, but can barely be bothered these days.

And all this you tuber bullshit, f**k me, sad sad days for boxing.

just a promoters circus now.

Im not really a fan of the Ufc stuff i'll watch it if theres a big fight or whatever but there are certainly a few things that sport has got right which boxing could well learn a thing or two from.....the weight divisions ive always said are more realistic in todays times.....and the matchmaking is good because fighters are not petrified to lose.....when you look at a guy like Fury who would rather retire than risk losing a fight you have to question whether its either a fault within that athlete or a fault with the sport where a loss is simply too damaging......i think its such a shame when i see chaps like yourself falling out of love with boxing but can totally understand it.

I remember when heavyweights could box ,what happened to those days ?

They issued the fans with fury tinted spectacles, I don’t think I’ve ever heard such delusion in all my life, fury just warming up after twelve capable of 15 ffs he’s a big fat spoiler, with about 4 rounds of boxing and 8 of smothering and ruining, he’s made it to the top and fairplay to him but all time great would only be accurate if all time began in the year 2000, you can’t even compare these twice a year 12 round boxers with the once a month 15 round fighters of yesteryear, as I’ve said before fury would have barely been a journeyman in the 70s

and he’s lost twice since mate 

Magoo, most of the all time greats, whatever weight category they boxed in, lost fights.

You really are proving to be more naive, the more you post about fury, Magoo.

Was going to ask you, and Billy b, a bit about the UFC.

Yes Gnash, like I said, I used to be 'up' on it all, but nowadays can barely be bothered.

And there will be plenty more like you mate......makes you wonder if they are simply aiming the sport at excitable youngsters these days......i still go to live boxing events and all but the small hall shows the crowd is changing from the rough and ready types who know a bit......to complete drunken f****n melts on a night out......its really horrible to see for chaps of our generation.

As did Joshua,as did Usyk..........the trouble with boxing these days is theres more titles than there is fighters hence the title holders then have to fight each other to establish who the true " top " is....Fury refuses to fight any of those fighters so not much you can do really.

Fighters today are nothing like they was years ago ,

Fury comes from a fighting family "breed" qnd he's done his people proud and no matter what he go's onto do next I wish him well

Just out of curiosity what exactly is a " fighting family breed " ?.....his father boxed a little bit as did mine as did many other fighters nobody else calls themself a " fighting family breed "...........but likewise he,s done his mob proud and good luck to him in lifes journey.
