Vitor Belfort stops overwhelmed Evander Holyfield in first round, calls out Jake Paul

He really does

Loves himself.......was bashed in his last two fights against Bellew....I reckon he just can't come to terms with the sting of these two clear concussive losses.

Johnny Nelson saying last night that Fury should probably fight Haye after the Wilder fight & the AJ fight will never happen

Absolute nonsense ,

I'm not sure why but the lads at sky always seem determined to get the public thinking Fury & AJ shouldn't fight its bizarre ,They should be the ones saying its the only fight anyone wants , I'm convinced they don't want AJ any where near Fury until Fury is beaten or gets old and uninterested ,

I honestly think AJ will and early and ko him

Its going to be easy work and people will get over excited again about AJ, i just can't see Usyk keeping AJ off him or taking AJ's power

It still makes no sense...

It's not like AJ hasn't been beaten.....he was shocked/humiliated by a fat Ruiz a few years ago.....the golden goose has already been goosed.

What gravy train? The chap has had many PPV events. The Fury one would be biggest ever in boxing...

AJ wants it. Hearn wants it. Fury wants it. The fans wants it. Why would Johnny Nelson not?

And, win or lose they could absolutely sell a rematch......no matter what happens in fight 1. Still be a huge seller

Ruiz beating AJ surely has shown them that he is far from invincible, so why would they be thinking of more gimme fights, and ones that could possibly cause an upset, which would dampen the desire and clamor for Fury/AJ.

He's fighting the 3rd/4th best HW on earth next week.....some even think this chap is a real banana skin.

I'm not buying this gimme nonsense...there is nobody left for AJ other than Fury and Wilder really...

AJ USYK

FURY WILDER

FURY HAMMER

HELENIUS KOWANCKI

KABAYEL HUCK

Decent fights before year end then we have Ruiz Ortiz Joyce Parker Chisora Hunter Dubois without fights hopefully some of them fight each other

I am saying that this is what is being said and is perceived...I have not yet rated him, as to date he has not done anything

He is actually ranked 10 by ring magazine, but really, he is better than Parker and Whyte, who are both ranked above him, and whom AJ has already beaten

I'd also pick him t0 beat fat Ruiz and Ortiz and Joe Joyce; all these also above him...

I'd favor him to beat all not named Fury and AJ....I even think he could beat Wilder.

So to have a view that he is in the top 4/5 is not crazy....

I think he would adapt and adjuts and beat them all...fat plodding pressing-low Chisora was just stylistically bad for him, because he had not the power and strength to keep Chisora off him

The other lads would suit Usyk far more, allowing him more time and space to pick them off. Joyce would be too easily hit.

And I'm sure Usyk and his coaches have studied it too and will have altered their strategy to best avoid these issues.

But wasn't that the strategy in his first two fights to avoid being leaned on and bullied ?

Personally the size & strength difference at heavy weight along with his lack of real power ,make his style of fighting far less effective ,

I don't think he beats them

Your describing Usyk at cruiser weight against cruiser weights, So far it hasn't transferred over to heavy weight,

Until he shows something i cant see it ,

Whyte is a better bigger version of Chisora ,
