he was a godo fighter when he beat klitschko. stunk out the joint, but the guy didn't have power and was up against a guy who was almost as big who did.
fury is not the lineal champion of the world, that is vacant. the guy was suspended for an anabolic steroid [and *******,] and unfit to fight for a number of years.
lineage will be reestablished when joshua and wilder fight. hopefully that is next year.

But I think that has to do with all the belts out there & there not being many guys unifying in divisions to create a lineal champ these days more then people don't care about the concept of lineal champions. So if the belt situation changed or if the WBSS gets more unifications happening I think the lineal title would be a stronger concept again.
I got & have issues with it well before doe cuz of exactly what this new boxing fan dude (I assume) is confused about cuz I remember when Briggs was the lineal champ cuz Foreman was milking his status in the game by fighting bs guys. And thats what you can do once you got the lineal title & thats one of the biggest issues with it being legit is that you can sc**** the bottom of the barrel as lineal champ & still retain that claim.

He can call himself the gypsy king and the lineal champ but he isn't the king of any gypsies and he isn't a boxing champion of any kind now.
Bolio always saying how it is.
