You’re listening to Fight Night extra on talk sport 2 with me Gareth a Davis and him the former world champion turned pundit and Brilliant pundit he is Barry Jones Barry heavyweights we’re going to fire through this because there is so much to talk about how good is it that

We start the year with Tyson Fury against Alexander usk but have we seen things from both men everyone’s talked about the delay at least it’s happening we get to go to the ring of fire but judging on last perform forces from both of them where are we well if you’re only

As good as your last fight then Fury’s in trouble you would say that much but if we go on the best versus the best version of each other then you have to say Fury’s him with a really good chance if he can be more motivated which he

Will be I think I think you know I think you can get it right this is this is a career defining fight for him this will change his whole that always remember in in the history of the sport so we’ll have to get it right and I think it is

Very very best if he can get back to that who knows he’s very hard to beat extremely hard to beat because he’s as clever as usik I’m glad you say Legacy yeah I’m I’m glad you say Legacy though Barry because because he always says Legacy is

Not important that’s a bluff as far as I’m concerned and it’s not just Legacy you know this you’ve been around long enough in the sport this is an era defining fight 25 years we’ve waited for an Undisputed title Holyfield and lenx SE last time Lewis is going to hand the

Belt over you know he’s going to hand the belt over on the night he’s going to be there an Undisputed title it means so much doesn’t it and how apt is it that again it’s another former cruiserweight world champion who’s moved up to be a heavyweight champion to give him to give

The heavweight championship the world that that’s stamp of approval it’s the say it’s history repeating itself so you think for you’re right for Fury this is the fight for him to say what know to be mentioned with the greats because right now know he talk a good game and he is a

Fantastic fighter but still his body of work is quite shallow compared to other fighters of no that he’s trying to compare himself too like LX Lewis and and and Muhammad Ali they their their record in depth strength in depth is phenomenal he is not quite there but

USIC that win to cify yourself as the as easily the best then that that that puts him in a that puts him in a higher level for the rest of his life and all the money in the world he has but also what else yeah but it also closes out that debate

About Fury and Joshua although if we just bring in that Joshua performance and Otto Wallin um muscularity his power and robustness some combinations in there clearly the right trainer in Ben Davidson giving the him the right armaments technically for 15 minutes the best busting Joshua we’ve seen for a

Long time and don’t you now want to see Joshua and fury more than ever you do it’s again with the heavyweight I said years ago with the heavyweights you can you can recycle a heavyweight so his legs fall off and I was joking but it actually the truth because you can it

Just goes one good it’s true it is true with that division more than any other because you know he lacking the confidence Joshua that’s all is all mental with Joshua the confidence to throw that jab he throws that jab with a with intent that right hand follows and

And he’s an explosive fighter again and that and he’ll build off that in the ring and that’s what he did that’s what he did against valid he built up his confidence every round he got more comfortable and I think now a confident Joshua going into any fight is a

Dangerous Prospect for anybody this I still think no you make FY a biger favor and you make uszi a favor again again if they box for for a third time but no you give him a better chance than you ever give him before ditto to Joseph Parker getting

Back in the frame he handled the bully Deontay Wilder you never let the bully come forward he n IED his right hand Wilder was out of sorts maybe he’s had his day and he hit him with his overhand right brilliant jab great footwork right now I’d love to know your view on

Deontay Wilder and let’s look at who our top six are at the moment yeah it’s it’s an interesting moment because you know Parker looked like he he got to the hill and he was on he was on the slide there not only a few fights ago he strugg he

Didn’t struggle but he looked very lack lustered against Jack Massie so Cruiser it really so you tend to think he wouldn’t have give Wilder too much trouble but he got the tactics right because what he did with wilder he didn’t he threw and then Wilder fires back instantly that’s his natural

Reaction and Parker threw and then he threw in combination straight after he threw a single shot he was throw in flurries to stop W Wilder from working and you can see Wilder afraid to throw because he he was getting caught when he tried to throw that right hand and then

In the end he got gunshot and couldn’t throw that right hand and without that right hand he’s nothing because technically he’s not he’s never been the greatest of Fighters he’s been on Boxed in most of his fights but he always finds that equalizer and he couldn’t

Find it and that’s all on to the tactics of Parker being brave what Packer is who Brave you have to be brave to get close and stay close and willing to throw in that zone where you can get knocked out and he did it and they come off now all

Of a sudden you say he’s a dangerous opposition again now he’s again that one fight can change your career in that Division and now he’s he’s teting on the level there having said that bar but having said that you mentioned Jack Massie but four fights four wins in 2023

The most active of the top 10 heavyweights clearly four fights an extraordinary run really right now for me still Fury one usick too some people have USI as number one but please prove it Alexander against Tyson Joshua three Jiang four Parker five Wilder six cabel seven Andy Ruiz Jared Anderson Frank

Sanchez Matt mov coming back I mean it’s a great Daniel dub hastened to ad you know he deserves a place that was a great performance wasn’t it he showed Stones didn’t he oh Daniel dad again the question is always goingon to be about Dani dad about his about his courage and

The fire but against a Miller who okay slow feet but he has fast hands and he’s big and he tried to walk you down and you know we’ve seen Joshua in the past when Joshua sorry you’ve seen duad in the past once he starts to pan starts to

Tire he panics but he never in that fight he showed great great composure a great structure of his work and he and he believed in himself and he was a really good performance from him and that and psychologically and also his heart that question about his heart

That’s been sort of pushed away now and he and know he’s a real Force I I think you’re I think your your list there is probably spot on I do think that Parker takes the the place of Wilder all with that dominant performance Wilder can still be can still be just Wilder still

Got that right hand if he can hit you he can hurt you but we got to T thinking what do those those last two the second and third fights against Fury what did they take out of him and it looks like they maybe took a lot out of him and if

That’s the case he can’t pull the trigger then he’s just a six foot seven punching bag and I don’t want to say that about him but if that’s what’s what if that’s the case being that big tall like athletic guy all of a sudden you’re

A big tall guy who hasn’t got the weight and the strength to absorb those punches against the naturally bigger heavyweights yeah I mean it is brilliant in the space of three events in Saudi we’ve now got a super league for the heavyweights at least it feels like that

Division is being sorted out but my word after nine minutes of Miller and dubar I was I was dubar must have felt like he was hitting a giant sofa because that’s what he absorbed those punches um it wasn’t till seven or eight rounds in fact Stan

I Dub’s dad gets a lot of stick from being too interventionist but he was screaming because we had the on talk sport we had the the ring mics the corner mics during rounds and his dad said effing get in there and throw your hands going out for the end of the sixth

I think it was and he turned the corner at that moment in that fight for me and that was the moment that the boy left the village right a passage to being a man in the heavyweight division in my view and I also think that we all got we

Always I always say the fighters the trainer is only as good as his fighter and I and I believe that till the day I die but a good trainer is worth his wor in gold and a good fit is is is most important and I do think with Don

Charles and and Dubai a really good fit he believes in Don Charles I thought he listened to instructions really well and he and he did what he was told right up until the last round and ironically he almost got the Finish he almost got The

Knockout in the last round but he he was so he was so disciplined with his work so he worked away he knew he had to be busy but he knew he all of a sudden listened to Don and know about not getting too greedy on your success when

You L with the big shot don’t go don’t go to gungho and entty the tank keep a little bit in keep keep aware that you got a big guy here you gotta systematically beat down and that’s what he did and and in the end I thought he

Bo a Flawless display and showing that that he could keep that stamina for the 12 wrong distance or the 10 wrong distance will I think that that really puts him back in the line well well I got this wrong as well because he did finish him 8 seconds i’

Forgotten in the moment he finished him 8 seconds he gotten stopped by the ref didn’t he with eight seconds to go I mean like you say it was almost a pure knockout in the end but um final one very final one go on go on tell me tell

Me no just but the thing he showed the stamina the commitment to have to keep that that energy right up until the very end of the fight even though he gets a stoppage he he he don’t in previous fights he’s gassed up by seven rounds he’s done all the good work and then

He’s holding on for de life in this fight he he he his fight management there you go his fight management with Don Charles in his ear was fantastic exactly absolutely if it had gone 12 rounds he would have got a big knockout stoppage and I think he’s a championship

Fighter now still such a young man as well um final one short answer on this I’ll give mine first Fury and yusk I’ve got this weird feeling I’m going to have a controversial draw in the first fight they’ll split the belts they’ll fight again at the beginning of the Riad

Season 2024 and I got a feeling that that’ll be a draw and then we’ll have to see what happens to to that November October fight again Joshua’s gonna fight hergovich for the ibf in my view and become a three time heavyweight champion of the world that’s how I see next year

Mapping out Joseph Parker will probably fight someone like agit cabel that’s a great fight as well um or you could put xie Jiang in with Joseph Parker there’s so many great ramifications now for the top five six seven in the division and maybe you throw Deontay Wilder at

Francis andaru yeah that’s not a bad thing at all I think I think I this is gonna sound crazy I say here now I’d like to see duar and Jang I think it’s a dangerous fight I know and you think if the J J’s power could knock

Dubar out I think duar showed a real good good good structure to his work and I thought you know maybe that going into the confidence that he had if he can do a job on Jang who historically tires he hasn’t in the last few fights but that’s

Because he’s dictated the pace but if if if dubac can dict take the pace like he did did against Miller then you know then we’ll see what it’s like after six or seven rounds if he’s still on his feet I do think I do fancy um Fury to

Get it right against usik and I do think Joshua does box um for the for the ibf title and I do think he wins it I do think he becomes a three-time World Champ at the end of the year all right all right then let’s say then let well

Let’s say then in youi and fury don’t fight twice let’s say all right who’s going to be who’s going to be the heavyweight world champion at the end of this year then I think there’s going to be more than one unfortunately and I do think I do think we’re gonna go back

To to the Future it’s gonna be Fury and Joshua again so they got a fight in early 2025 haven’t they that’s and if and if we get that for the next 14 months and we get these seven eight fights we’re talking about no one can blame what’s happened with Saudi Investment in heavyweight

Boxing because we’ve wanted this for like two and a half years really hav’t yeah we have you know and again money talks and that’s fine there’s always that’s always been the case whether it’s Saudi Las Vegas New York or London money talks and the money’s getting these

Fighters in the ring to fight each other and we’re getting what we want let’s be happy
