    People can dislike AJ all they want but he’s fought far higher calibre opponents in his career that Fury has. AJ has never needed a bent rent to give him the decision like Fury had in his first fight against John McDermott.

    AJ didn’t toss it off for 2 years like Fury did after beating Klitchko and then blame it all on mental health. He copped a drugs ban as well. Apart from Wilder, the only other credible opponent Fury has fought was Whyte, which AJ had already knocked out a few years before. The Eulogising of Fury appears to be based on his 3 fights with Wilder, against someone who yes, hits hard with his right hand, but can’t box for ****, so looking good as a boxer against Wilder isn’t difficult.

    Sorry but fury best klitscyko as well so... is rep is based on being a big fat lump thst won't be knocked out.

    Uzjk wasn't knocked out by Joshua so Joshua was always losing. He's never getting a points decision over a defending champion

    I am sick and tired of hearing about both Joshua and fury. The endless waffle about unification and running away from it are tiresome and done.

    There's a new non UK champion in town now and he's got thr belts and defended them. Joshua disrespected 2 belts last night and I sincerely doubt those organisations will do him any favours now.

    I know he did, I was comparing what AJ did after beating Klitchko compared to Fury.

    AJ lost to a small fat guy and to the first credible boxer he faced in Usyk.

    To be fair the ruiz loss ruined Joshua's rep.

    The guy spent the 6.months or whatever partying and handed the titles right back.

    Fury has has some careful management in his come back to not look.a big enough threat to wilder but the opponents were weak enough he could walk them. In fairness to fury he scraped the first one by the skin if his teeth and then got.better and better and thumped wilder who couldn't knock him out.

    Joshua's rep is now completely shot.

    Usyk has just taken anything the bigger guy could do and has therefore been too quick as a step up cruiser weight.

    Joshua is 3 inches taller and had the reach. He should.never ever have lost the first one as he was at home and had judges in pocket. He proved he has a glass jaw. Career over.

    ****ed up grid today; a lot of drivers taking penalties - Sainz & Lewis at the back, Max relegated five places to seventh but Le Clerc remains on pole. Max should still get second comfortably, but can he catch Le Clerc?

    Yes he can. If the first lap goes OK.

    Imo ferrari need some luck.

    There should be lots of passing un the back.

    Unless there's a massive red flag here.

    Sky calling for show case finish at Monza despite not all lapped cars being released.

    The irony was epic though.

    They were in effect calling for Russell to lose this podium due to faster ferrari behind.... all just to see a slower ferrari dictionary with verstappenl
