Hello boxing fans, today we do not report the event news, nor do we introduce some boxing stars off-court tidbits, we will simply talk about whether there is a hegemon in today's heavyweight boxing world.
As the British "Gypsy Emperor" Tyson Fury brutally ko old rival Wilder for 11 rounds, Fury was worshipped by some irrational and uncool boxing fans and began to hype creationism. Editors fight jianghu with 15 years of experience in boxing criticism, as a domestic boxing expert, combined with the Lennox Lewis, Mike Tyson era to comment on today's heavyweight boxing, to see if Fury is qualified to be the hegemon.
First of all, let's talk about the author of the fight jianghu, since 2006, the system began to watch boxing and evaluate boxing, which has been more than 15 years ago, and once won the first place in the year-end boxing in a large domestic boxing website for 3 consecutive years. Even now, you can guess at a website. Some people may disdain this record, thinking that the editor's fight against the jianghu is completely a self-boasting and self-proclaimed expert who sells melons by the princess. In fact, fighting is just seeking truth from facts.
What is Guess boxing? In other words, prediction, the sixth sense of boxing. After the horse cannon who will, but the pre-match analysis is not everyone has the ability, some people look at boxing for 30 years, maybe his memory is better, understand the history of boxing more knowledge, but his boxing understanding, boxing interpretation ability, prediction ability may be very poor, this is not contradictory. Facts speak louder than words, and we move on to Tyson Fury.
Although Tyson Fury ended Wilder in 11 rounds, it does not mean that Fury's boxing strength has reached its peak, or even lost alone, Fury's excellence, of course, we admit, but this brutal ko victory, more can only show that Wilder's overall strength is too weak. Except for the heavy punch lethality, the rest is almost useless, the physical energy has been exhausted after the 5th round, except for the back, there is almost no decent dodging technique, and various edge techniques are even more scarce. Even the invincible swing punches and big straight punches that have become famous have lost speed and explosive power. It was Wilder's weakness that set off Furi's strength.
That's right, Fury koed Wilder in 11 rounds and knocked out his opponent 3 times. But don't forget, in the 4th round, Fury was also knocked down by Wilder twice, and was almost completely ko, in fact, there is only a wall between ko and the continuation of the game, and it is only a momentary execution action of the referee. If the seconds were a little faster, if Furi's feet and body were shaking a little, the referee could have terminated the game in the 4th round, and the result was that the ice and fire double heaven, Wild 4 round ko Furi, successful revenge.
Therefore, Furi seems to have won a big victory this time, but in fact it is a narrow victory.
In the first 10 rounds, Fury's point advantage was 94-92, 95-92, 95-91, and he deducted 3 points from two knockouts, and Fury also lost 2-3 rounds in the grinding points of Masae Yakkei. This shows that Fury's point lead is not very different. In other words, Fury's technique is not invulnerable, and it is also indisputable that Fury's nearly 280-pound weight has repeatedly crushed 238-pound Wilder's body, causing the latter's physical strength to decline rapidly. Fury is relying on physical advantages + technical advantages to ko Wilder, since Wilder such a technically unskilled or even slightly rough boxer can knock down Fury twice in three battles, then can you say that Fury's technology is outstanding?
Then again, Furi's shortcomings exist, and we should admit that the recovery ability is very strong, and after being knocked down, you can always get up and continue to fight, much stronger than Anthony Joshua. But has Furi really reached the point of being alone? Apparently not. After all, Fury hadn't played against Joshua or Uzik. Is Furi absolutely sure of killing these two? Obviously, I dare not say so. Editors fight the jianghu believe that if Furi wants to become an indisputable overlord, he must prove himself with strength and shut up the doubters with his fists.
The first thing he needs to do is to pass the two levels of Usik and Joshua.
Even if Furi defeats Usik and Joshua, does that prove that he is alone? No, that's not enough. What is a true overlord? Note that the word overlord cannot be used indiscriminately. Will be the top of the mountain, overlooking the mountains and small, the only respect on the rivers and lakes. Relying on the sky, who fights with the front, commands the world, do not dare not follow. Thinking of the little bully Roy Jones, who crushed all the boxers of 175 pounds under his feet, with his own strength, made this chicken rib level look like a city, this is the overlord. Apparently, Fury doesn't have it yet.
When Furi defeats Usik and Joshua, and then defeats the top challenger 4-5, Then Furi can become the overlord. In other words, Furi must defeat all the masters of the same period, beat the rest of the boxers to be satisfied, and be on top of himself, and his strength is obviously crushed and hanged by others, which is the most important quality that the overlord should have.
In the same way, since Fury is not currently qualified as a hegemon, then let's look at Uzik, can he? Obviously not. First of all, he had to pass the level of Joshua in World War II, and it was not yet known whose hand the deer had killed. Even if he defeats Joshua again, he will have to face Tyson Fury, and they will have to fight each other and decide the king.
In addition, Usik did not have a heavy punch in the heavyweight class, which in itself is somewhat contrary to the meaning of overlord. As for Joshua, who has a fragile chin and lacks domineering ambition, especially after being ko by Ruizko, he was almost destroyed, can such a person be called a hegemon? Even if he succeeds in revenge on Usik, he may be punched by latecomers at any time.
Let's look at the boxing king Tyson era, from November 1986 to the end of 1989, the period is about 3 years, which is the real peak of the boxing king Tyson, but also his brilliant years of dominating the heavyweight boxing world. At this time, Lewis had not yet entered the professional boxing world, or had just played his first professional game in 1989, so he was doomed to play against Tyson at his peak. Although the two people are similar in age, only 1 year apart, they are people of two eras.
At the peak of Tyson, from the defeat of Bobik to the defeat of Carl Williams, a total of 10 games were played, 10 games were won, including 8 ko opponents, this is the power domination, this is the hegemony. For 3 years, no one disobeyed Tyson, and no one dared to fight twice.
Similarly, boxing champion Lewis played a total of 13 games in the 6 years from 1997 to the end of 2002, except for the unexpected loss to "Rock" Raman, the remaining 12 games won 11 wins and 1 draw, and he also took revenge on Raman, a strong opponent. 1 draw is also a draw with Hollyfield, and everyone knows that the winner of that game is Lewis. Lewis has been almost destroyed in the past few years, defeating one strong enemy after another, and Golotta, Briggs, Tua and others have been defeated by his fists. Lewis proved himself with wisdom and iron fists as a true hegemon in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
Some people say that Lewis is a glass chin, in fact, it is completely wrong, the two failures of Lewis's career are due to the cold fist, which is like Marquez's brutal ko Pacquiao, the cold fist is another matter. Lewis's jaw is tested by blood and fire, and heavy gunners such as Mossel and Briggs can't knock down Lewis, and Hollyfield has fought twice, 24 rounds, and Old Liu has not fallen to the ground.
Looking at Fury again, compared with Tyson and Lewis at that time, it is obvious that they do not have the above qualities, so Fury is not the overlord in today's boxing world. Except for Fury, the rest of Usik, Joshua, White and others cannot provoke the hegemon's beams. Therefore, the editor of the fight asserts that there is no hegemony in today's heavyweight boxing world. Not sure what you think of this article? Welcome to leave a message and forward.
