Comments Thread For: Fury-Wilder III In Jeopardy After Reported COVID Outbreak in Fury's Camp

[Toffee]

I said from the first announcement of this fight, that it wouldn't happen that quick. To soon for fat Fury to get into shape. To good to be true for an under card like they announced. And plus Fury is good for this type of crap. He still has never defended a belt. He and Wilder are both frauds, but in this case, it's Furys fault again

And I agree. From the start I've said I doubt it will happen. There's too much previous with Fury to think that it's just coincidence. He doesn't take these fights and he gets himself out of them somehow. And it's apparently never his fault - always something else.

No smoke without fire. Surely we've seen enough smoke from Fury now to realise it's him lighting the fires!

Call me cynical but covid is the new TR excuse du jour, replacing shoulder injuries.

well let me be more clear- if ticket sales are bad and the TR boxer is the big name it’s “COVID-19”. If the TR guy loses, it’s shoulder injuries.

Add mental health issues with that too

Fight officially postponed as Fury tested positive. It seems to be common with boxers signed with Top Rank.

Nah you still owe me $100
Covid19 or not Lol
Whether it happens this month or in November
I figured Fury probably got hurt in sparring needs a little more time to recover

The fight has to take place no later than September 15th. So the fight most likely will occur on either the 4th or the 11th day of September; If there is going to be a fight at all. No, I think it's more of a case of Tyson not being prepared, focused and out of shape. Fury never wanted this fight from the get go. He is afraid of Deontay Wilder now who has been literally training his ass off for this trilogy bout.

The fight is not happening on the 24th of this month because if what is reported is true then Fury's camp will be shutdown and he would remain in quarantine for the next two weeks. So yeah the fight has been postponed until September.

Now I am cynical and not even convinced that the fight will ever take place at all. Fury is obviously shook, suffering from another breakdown and panic attack who desperately wants out of this fight.

He knows he is going to be under an immense amount of pressure and scrutiny due to all the cheating allegations in the rematch and it has him worried that he may actually get busted this time.

Also, if he does then he will lose the fight because he won't be able to cheat and if he can't cheat then he can't win. Wilder wins by way of knockout and he knows it. Deontay has this boy mind fucked and shook.

Well I agree with your prediction but none of your reasons.

To me it's always been pretty simple. He's an excellent boxer but a better conman.

He proclaims how he took risks. He only took them where he had everything to gain. Wlad in Germany, Wilder in the US - he had to take those fights to win championships.

Once he's got a belt he's far happier pushing his best in the world narrative than actually proving it in the ring. The ring is riskier than the media. Fury isn't going to risk his record against actual threats if he doesn't have to.

And so far he's got enough people conned that he hasn't had to go back and defend titles against top heavyweights. He's number one in the rankings and universally (almost) acclaimed as the best.

Think about it. He has that standing despite never defending a title, twice not fulfilling contractual rematches, a drugs ban, two retirements.

It's crazy isn't it?

Fury coming up with excuses now that he wont be able to get away with tampered gloves. ****** coward. I hope Wilder kills him.

Fight officially postponed as Fury tested positive. It seems to be common with boxers signed with Top Rank.

That's their spin! However, I don't believe though because it sounds all too coincidental to me. Two weeks out from a fight and all of sudden you come down with Covid?

Bullshit! His fat lard ass was just out of shape, unprepared and afraid of Deontay Wilder that's all. This sounds like a smokescreen if one were to ask me. It sounds more like publicity stunt to get out of the fight. Fuck Tyson Fury cowardly ass!

He quit because he is afraid of getting his ass whooped by Deontay Wilder. He ain't sick.

[QballLobo]

Makes sense if Fury himself tested positive. Per fat Dan Fury had the first shot but not the second.
Probably pushed back to October or later with the fights currently talked about for September.

[Toffee]

Oh well, back to arbitration we go

[Lupara]

Why doesn't Fury use his Gypsy Magic to rid himself of the Covid?
