Yeah, he's literally been around for two minutes in the heavyweight division. And this era of heavyweights isn't exactly great at this particular moment. A deluded and arrogant Tyson Fury who is well past his prime. Wilder the one trick pony. Joshua who is just a slow, robotic, power puncher (limited fighter). Then who else is there? It's hardly the prime 90s when you had loads of fighters who could compete for the top spots. So he's arrived in the heavyweight division and has completed it without much effort. And that's not really all that much of an achievement. Would Usyk have beaten prime Fury? The Fury that dismantled Klitschko was probably the best version. It would have been a more competitive fight.

And now Fury knows what works good against Usyk too so he might stop him before 9 rounds,, he knocked Wilder down in round 3 in the rematch and stopped him before 9 rounds they thrown the towel in,, that was at 271lbs or 277lbs or something like that.

You'd have to take a risk, strategies and throw away the 1st 6 rounds, because that's what usyk does so successfully. Strangely enough I think a fighter who lacks technique but with a decent chin would fare better against usyk, a fighter who just looks for the one punch KO all fight as they wouldn't tire as much as usyks other opponents who he sucks into getting v tired in the 2nd part of the fight. Just a theory because at this point usyk seems unbeatable.

Tyson should get John out the corner and ask his uncle Peter to return imho, Peter would do John on the cobbles😂

George Groves is the only boxing Pundit on Talksport who talks the Truth, Simon Jordan just likes the sound of his own voice!

No one wants to say it, but the guy should not be around if that is the way he behaves. Simple

Two questions; 1. How many fights have been stopped and declared a TKO when a fighter has been stunned, is not defending himself by returning shots or raising his guard to protect himself whilst against the ropes just like Fury against Usyk? 2. How can anyone justify (including the ref) allowing a standing 8count when a fighter is clearly so dazed and confused he cannot return a punch, walk properly, maintain his balance or protect himself and is at risk of serious injury such as brain damage? The fight should have been stopped in the interests of Tyson Fury's health, safety and the credibility of boxing. At the time of writing this, nobody knows if Tyson Fury is going to suffer a post fight event. The referee is there to protect as well as keep the fight clean and from illegal actions. It was a disgraceful example of referee bias!

Well done for sticking to your man George , i did the same . The ref saved Fury , Usyk should have been left to finish him. Ref was bent so was the WBC judge . Nuff said

Usyk was focussed , professional and determined unlike his opponent who was showboating , complacent and arrogant. The irony is that had Fury had the same qualities/approach as Usyk I believe he'd likely have won (he showed this from rounds 4 to 6 when his strategy/mentality was perfect and Usyk had no answer.)

My reading was Fury went backwards and used his reach. Usyk was loath to try and get close because he believed Fury's tactic was to catch him coming in. By round 7 Usyk realised he had to take that risk because the fight was going against him. When he took it, he found he could get in, hit Fury and hurt him. That changed the fight. I agree with Groves. Now Fury and Usyk know that usyk wins any rematch.

So in other words, if he dies in a championship fight it’s ok? The referee is there to protect all fighters.

Great insight!!

Since when does the ref give a 15-20 second standing eight count?

The fact is that the referee stopped the match (putting his hand on the arm of Usyk)... and then changed his mind in one second. Let us count up to 8 during 15 seconds !? ... Human error.

I remember when Tyson boxed wilder in the US and John couldn’t go and he made a phone call after the fight congratulating Tyson. That when fury was at his best.

Groves is a bright guy. More intelligent then most boxers

That fight will forever be remembered as the battle between the Rabbit and the Sausage. And the Rabbit came out on top.

You can’t compare the legendary Eubank senior with Tyson Fury’s dad. Fury’s dad is a loud mouth nutter who’s never been a champion.

The ref should not have jumped in he stopped Usyk from stopping Fury.Imagine if the decision at the end went against Usyk it would have been daylight robbery

It wasn't a standing 8 count. No standing 8 counts were in use during this fight. The turnbuckle kept Fury up, so it was a knock down '8'.

I dont understand why people are saying the ref made a mistake with the standing 8 count. Was it not ruled a knockdown because had it not been for the ropes on that final fall, he would have hit the deck?

Fury has to be massive and go for knockout in first 6 rounds otherwise he cant win

Great review by Groves, that guy knows his subject, very cool.

How do these people not even know the rules of boxing. The standing 8 count was abolished in 1998. Fury was knocked down, because he would have fallen on the ground and out of the ring had the ropes not been there to hold him up. It wasn't a standing 8 count, it was a standard count for a knockdown.

Unless I am mistaken, I believe that the rules state that if a man is being supported by the ropes after being punched, it counts as a knockdown and the fighter has to take a count. It happened to be a standing count on this occasion because Tyson was on his feet.

Usyk is incredible, come up from Cruiserweight and walk down a 6 ft 9 heavyweight who was number 1.... and but for the ref, knock him out, undisputed best of this era 👏

Fury is still the best of the century so far, Usyk has only had 22 matches as a heavyweight. Not enough.

He’s 💯. Confidence is a key in its own!

When I got back to my corner I wanted only my trainer to talk to me and tell me what to change for the next round and what to watch out for, comments like "you are doing well" irritated me and I certainly didn't want anybody else talking.

Well done to Usyk. Great fighter, I do honestly think tyson will get him in the rematch. Apart from round 9 I don't think ppl realise how close the fight was

I think there's every possibility can win a rematch, but he'll have to really focus on banging Usyk with horrendous body shots.

A fight is 12 rounds and Usyk exhausted Fury and Fury was never even close to taking Usyk out or causing him any real issues. He hit him a few times and Usyk still walked him down. Usyk will do the same thing. Fury will never be able to maintain a winning pace over Usyk for 12 rounds.

Goerge doesnt know boxing fury could easily Winn the rematch it was very close

Regarding the rematch, Usyk beats Fury any day of the week & twice on a Sunday

Love that Talksport randomly CAPS up the word 'GIVE' when it should be 'GIVES', and why that word would be capped up makes no sense anyway. Clearly the work experience kid was let loose again.

I don’t think it’s a given that fury would lose. He did a better job than Joshua did. The simple fact is that had Usyk not have had that incredible flurry in the 9th round, the match would have ended as a draw based on the scorecard (even with Usyk taking the last 2 rounds that wouldn’t be a given as Fury would have had more in the tank). Fury was landing big punches and all it would take is for one of them to really land. I’m not saying he would win - but I have seen nothing that makes me think Fury won’t get these margins in the rematch.

Referees have stopped fights for much less so itss unfair 1 person gets a loss when there wobbled and then someone like fury gets given more of a chance it's a bit unfair it should of been stopped

George is just a really nice bloke isnt he

Round 9, I used to love a game of pinball

Happy new year to all you middleweights

What’s more at stake than your health? Fury should’ve been stopped imho. I think the rematch doesn’t go the distance. Tyson gets stopped. People have questioned his legs of late for a reason.

Ya but the difference is Eubank Jrs Dad's a multiple world champion boxing legend whereas Tyson Fury's Dad's... not.

Round 9. Ref: “Where are you?” Fury: “I’ll tarmac your drive.”

I dont see what the issue is with the ref and the standing 8 count. And love the talk from Froch Bellew and Groves for Usky to not honour his contractual obligation and rematch Fury

Very close fight, Fury looked like he was going to take Usyk out in Round 6. People make out it was so 1-sided but it wasn’t. It just one judge gave the 11th round (which was very close) to Fury, it would have been a Split Decisision Draw. When Fury was using the jab and faints, jab-upper cut, jab-body, he was beating Usyk. Round 9 really did turn the tide and I agree that Usyk was the deserved winner, but I was expecting a draw as I don’t think it was that decisive in all honesty. Most at ringside also expected a draw; which says a lot. Both were battered, Usyk literally went to hospital for an MRI brain scan because his team were worried about him. I obviously support Fury, even though he plays the heel with his attention-grabbing tactics. It’s no surprise to me so many are sticking the knife in now. Usyk is an amazing boxer, but Fury is too. Can’t wait for the rematch and hope Fury wins

I think tyson has done more than enough to deserve a rematch and would stand a reasonable chance, he wasnt that far outclassed as to say otherwise

Fury isn't 6'9 more like 6'7 at best, just like aj is actually 6'5. Usyk is a legit 6'2 and fought like he was the bigger man. Also, the ref saved fury from getting knocked out by usyk, all in all usyk should of by K.O, but usyk is that good that he didn't let the establishment hinder his victory. Usyk is the goat

TF might lose more than the rematch next time.

Groves and froch are the best two outside the ring both class

Talksport still using the shocked emoji despite usyk already beating fury 😂🙈

If it was at the beginning of the round the ref would of stopped it but im glad he did a standing count it was a great fight

Any great previous champion like forman, Holyfield, Tyson, or Riddick Bowe would have floored both of them. Hard to compare past generations but they were a lot tougher.
