Comments Thread For: Hearn on Fury-Joshua: I Think We Are Days Away From Announcement

[PRINCEKOOL]

Beat both Klitschko & Wilder with all the cards stacked against him. He did it with drug & mental problems. Hardly a fraud. He is as real as it gets. A guy who could have a complete meltdown at anytime or fall off the wagon but is an amazingly talented guy. A ticking time bomb . That is what makes him such an enigma. A rare talent but has serious flaws outside the ring. Imagine if he had his s**t together what he could achieve. He comes from a family with a seriously checkered background. It really is amazing he has got this far. With all his character flaws i still favour him over Joshua. Fury has the common folk behind him because of his character flaws & i have no doubt if many had a chance to have a pint with a boxer it would be with a guy like Fury or Ricky Hatton. Guys that the average Joe plummer can relate to...

Tyson Fury beat those guys as the underdog, it is easier to be a underdog 'Because nobody expects anything from you, but yourself'.

Tyson Fury has never been favourite at elite level against another elite level fighter 'The only time he was in this position was against Kiltschko II'.

All of this is a new experience for Tyson Fury. Joshua although he is working through his trauma, has been favourite for every single fight he has been in since winning the Olympic Gold Medal 'Joshua's character and ability has been defamed be Fury, to the point where Fury has made himself a heavy favourtie'.

But the closer the fights gets? The more and more nice things are being said about Joshua by his fans and Fury himself.

It almost seems to me like Fury is trying to make himself the underdog again, going on about inactivity and boozing.

For me Fury is the favourite.

Nice spin Eddie but that is not what Tyson Fury or his team is claiming. They say you all are no more closer to getting this fight signed than you were back in the month of December 2020. Actually, they say y'all are more than several months away from the big announcement to be made. Some say it may take place sometime in November of this year. If that is indeed true. Then I could just see Tyson Fury retiring because this inactivity is really getting to him. His expressed desire was to fight at least twice in this calendar year of 2021. With hindsight being 20/20; He should have taken the Wilder trilogy after all.

That's what he wanted to do, but nobody knew where Wilder was hiding till he popped up after the contract expired with his unfounded cheating allegations.

Bob Arum literally said that everything was agreed no more than a few days ago...
