Comments Thread For: John Fury: Usyk is Too Small, Joshua Will Walk Straight Through Him

I don't like John Fury, but I think he knows a thing or two about boxing, so I'm not going to completely dismiss what he is saying here.
At the same time, Usyk isn't that small or light even and has always looked durable, even in his two HW fights in which he has been underwhelming.
He is a slow starter though -- and that might be a problem if Joshua goes gunning for him early on.

AJ is in for a real test. Watch and see
It wash pretty simple , what are all the excuses that were made when AJ lost to Ruiz ? You must have them to insinuate you will be waiting for them when he loses as if it happens all the time ?
I have to say you definitely fall in line with a Wilder fan even if your the most sane one on here which is still like saying your the least craziest guy in an institution but you are still crazy because you are in there .
I can list every excuse for an AJ win posters said on here as opposed to a Wilder one why he did poorly or lost in fights , do you really want to go there and I’m still waiting on why you consider Ortiz a true top 3/5 fighter it’s been well over a year now he’ll be mid 50”s by the time you answer it ?Last edited by REDEEMER; 07-21-2021, 02:17 AM.

First, Usyk is only 1" inch taller and 30lbs lighter then Andy Ruiz.
Second, Usyk hasn't fought anyone near the skill set of Andy Ruiz
Third, Joshua was never hurt or lost a round in the rematch...
Lastly, if you saw the fight you would know the fight wasn't even competitive, it was a blow out.
Usyk has 4" more reach than Ruiz, fact.
Usyk comes in shape, fact.
Usyk is a better boxer than Ruiz, fact.
Usyk is undefeated, fact.
Ruiz lost to Parker, fact.
Ruiz was getting lit up by an old Arreola, fact.
AJ was wobbled and running scared from every punch that Ruiz landed, fact.
Lastly, I saw the fight. AJ won yes, Ruiz was extra fat and out of shape yes, AJ was on his bike scared for his life, yes.Boxing Goat likes this.

He seemed a bit wobbly on the waist-line. Don't get me wrong - I am a fan of the Gypsy King as well, just think the Wilder fight is crap and John Fury is just trying to sell the fight with undermining Usyk / Joshua.
And you have Peter Fury on the other hand stating that Usyk is very dangerous for Joshua. I will go with Peter everyday of the week and twice on a Sunday.
I came across slightly condescending, so ignore that from me. I get what your saying though and I’m not trying to claim you’re wrong. But yes now I’ve read what you’ve put I hear your point more!

With everything still hanging in the shop window I don't think Joshua will be taking many risks. I expect a similar fight to Ruiz II or Parker. For what it's worth, I think two boxers like these guys are going to stink the place out.
Realistically with all the advantages Joshua should obliterate him in 2 he for sure has the ability he just lacks the mindset

Look at Wlad when he took on the name Grabimir Clinchko
Aj will forever be defensive and run like a coward for lesser physical specimens
He should be doing a George foreman and walking through these guys in the 1st 2 rounds but we won't be seeing that again from him he knows he doesnt have the stomach for it

Joshua didn't look comfortable against pulev or ruiz
Joshua should really have bit down on the gumsheild and made a definitive win like Lewis did to rahman especially since ruiz was that out of shape
Joshua has lost his killer instinct it's obvious he's safety first now he will never be as great as Lewis in that regard he just doesn't have the stomach to be an atg heavyweight
The people that think they witnessed something special in the ruiz rematch are clear fanboy nutthuggers or mindless women because they fancy him which one are you?Last edited by Stuntman Mike; 07-21-2021, 11:16 AM.War Room likes this.
