I'm sick of these rematch clauses. They just hold up the division more. The ufc is far superior in that regard.

I'd agree to a degree, but Volkanovski is going to end up facing Holloway for the 3rd time, so it's really dependent on the contenders in the division.

Great performance from Usyk, his movement was class.

What a fight last night. Fury is some warrior. 

What next for him? Joshua is a money fight but he would end tat quickly. 
Uysk be a class fight

The man is some warrior. I used to look at him as a joke of a boxer before Klitschko. After that i looked at him differently. Hes really improved since then though. I used to think Joshua would blow him away but now i believe he beats him if they meet. Uysk wud be a difficult fight. He has a rematch with Joshua so i assume he will have a go at one or both of them possibly yet. Heard this morning that Dillian White is a mandatory fight next but he should beat him without too much trouble.

rewatched the whole fight and post fight today and it’s so fecking satisfying what Fury delivered. Like he said he would.
In fairness to Wilder, he gave it all he had, a weaker man would have given up earlier, but fury had his number….in general… that knock out power was there and always a threat. 

Best fight of the trilogy as a Fury fan. 

I wouldn’t mind seeing him spanking Joshua and/or white (which I think he does with ease).
Uysk is the danger fight as he is similar in a way to Fury, would be on his toes the whole fight and hard to hit. But the size difference you would imagine fury and his boxing IQ he would get in there and maul him.

Anyway, heavyweight boxing is alive and well. All time classic

Only has to fight Whyte if Whyte beats Wallin on 30th October. No guarantee of that.

He is in good shape. Hes never gonna have a 6 pack. Over the 3 fights he never lacked energy or stamina. A tank. Hes converted me totally. Fair dues to him.

Yeah f**k fury, team joshua all the way. Not like he ever sold drugs or anything.

All time classic as said above. Fury has come through so many hardships. One hell of a trilogy you couldn't ask for better. 

I just hope fury fights the winner of usyk joshua and then defends against the loser of that match. Would be something else to usyk undefeated against Joshua undefeated.

Boo Boo a very tough opponent. Be a massive upset. Seems a top top lad,would love to see him win it. 
Saw him about 10 weeks ago in a rowing club in Chapelizod. 7am and he was running a boxersise type class with about 8 punters. Madness!

Looking forward to this! He’s a top lad which comes with being a Finn Harps man obviously! Hopefully he’ll round of a double now after Harps stayed up.

Quigley seems like a nice fella so it's a shame he was beaten so easily. It seemed like Andy Lee never had much faith in his ability to win a title, and it showed against Andrade.

Crawford stops Porter in 10. It was close leading up to the stoppage. Porter's not easy to look good against. Seen a lot of people critical of Porter's corner for stopping it, but he seemed wobbly heading back to the corner after so it was the right call.
