Sounds like getting really fat so you can't be physically dominated isn't a winning tactic in top flight boxing. 

 

He did make a career out of it until he came up against a better technician, to be fair.,

He's just lost a fight to the bloke in May. The answer was never gonna be "come back fatter".

That's another of my career options gone then. 🙁

I think, since the second Wilder fight, Fury has looked like his best fights were behind him. I wanted Usyk to win anyway. It’s just a shame he didn’t knock Fury out. As Fury will keep saying he won the fight. I hope there isn’t a third fight. Usyk has nothing to prove and I’d like to see him retire undefeated.

Right little quiz, who here has boxed before? i boxed for my regiment in the army and I scored Usyk well ahead.

Used to spar with my mates when I was younger. Not sure exactly what you’d regard as being a boxer but it’s at least an eye opener in terms of how difficult it is to hit and not get hit. 
Why like? Do you want a fucking fight?

 

 

 

Because I don’t

I'd lace KCG like. His head would stand out like a sore thumb when I'd finished with him.

I thought the decision was fair. Fury didn't offer much more than being a big fat fuck

Aye, I’m not a boxing know it all and I had a lot to drink last night but this was my read of it. Fury would spend a round throwing punches and then spend the next round fucking knackered
