    It’s all for a little boring with far too much money being thrown at very average boxers.

    Fury is an average boxer but because of his big frame he can absorb punches and give big blows.

    Usyk is one of my favourite boxers but isn’t really a true heavy weight and just technically is better than all the other average boxers.

    AJ was and had the best potential but it went to his head and he because what I hate about the sport. An arrogant prick.

    Wilder is done. This is his last big pay day.

    It’s all about money now.

    Fury is not an average boxer lmao. If he fights seriously his boxing abilities are incredible, the only thing he lacks is a concussive punch.

    I don't think AJ was ever that good. I think he was over marketed, over hyped and overpaid for years till that cash cow was bled dry.

    None of them are that good... youtubers have been proving it.

    Early fights he was explosive but it went to his head. Once people realised you hit him he couldn’t take punches then he got ****.

    Usyk isn’t really a heavy weight and he’s the best. That says it all for me.

    Fury is a good boxer. A show man. Can take a punch. But he’s not world class.

    Mike Tyson in his day would slap him silly.

    Wilder's career must be over now. He just doesn't look like he wants it any more.

    Dubois vs AJ fight is looking quite likely now.

    Glad the hrgovic hype train is over.

    AJ vs Dubois would be interesting. Still think AJ would smash him

    Would prefer AJ vs Parker.
