      I wouldn't pick the Gypsy Queen over anyone. Tyson Tummy isn't favoring himself over anyone these days except for Whyte (who already got ICED by a 45 yr old). So who would want to favor the Gypsy Bum over anyone else ? The retirement excuse BS is showing the real face of the Gypsy DUCK.

        A lot of fans look at Fury’s poor performances vs fringe contenders, but ignore his big fights.

        Tyson Fury’s dumb performances vs lower ranked fighters just means that he loses interest if he isn’t fighting a threat. Which leads to a bad training camp. That is very real. Lack of motivation translates directly into camp and then into fight night.

        But when you look at how Tyson Fury prepared himself and fought Wlad, Chisora and Wilder, that is the Fury you need to think about when it comes to fantasy fights.

        Yes, I saw the fights where Fury struggled. I saw the McDermott fight, I saw him get dropped by Cunningham, I saw him get beat up by Wallin.

        But that’s not the Fury that you will get if he knows he is fighting Mike Tyson, or Marciano, or Lewis, or Vitali, or Joe Louis, or Foreman, Ali, etc.

        Lack of motivation id a big issue for Fury. I wouldn’t be surprised if he keeps fighting after Whyte that his first loss will be vs some journeyman. That’s just how Tyson Fury operates. Give him a big name to prepare for, he will come to win.

        Fury beats Joshua and Usyk if he fights them in the next 2 years. And of course if Usyk survives the Ukraine war.

            he has a lot of power and he doesnt head hunt like wilder but he goes to the body. what do you think happens when foreman goes to furys fat body? its a wide open target, he cant defend it all the time

              The little ones aren't beating a prime 100% fury

              I think Fury is the kind of guy who if he had 50 fights may potentially lose 1 or 2 the way lennox did by just being lazy and unprepared. When he's on his game he's a nightmare for anyone.

              Lol at people saying Mike Tyson, Fury would DESTROY him mentally before they stepped in the ring and Tyson NEEDED his opponent to fear him to win, he would fold very quickly against fury.


              thats such a myth, they are all professional fighters, they are there to fight, prime tyson had great speed and defense. he burned out fast, his prime didnt last long, all that crap about oh hes a bully this or that, how is he bullying pro fighers, the best heavyweights in the world in the late 80s? do you think that just MAYBE he was the better fighter those nights?

              You think all the professional top boxers in the world fighting him never thought gee i better not let him think im intimidated by him, i better go out and bring it to them? you think they never thought of that? like tyson said everyone has a plan until they get hit in the face, just maybe the speed, accuracy and power of his counters ruined their plans.

                No one in history is outboxing Fury. Best chance of beating him are the smaller unconventional punchers like Marciano, Mike Tyson, Joe Frazier who can maybe catch him with an overhand and put his lights out, but my money wouldn't be on it...

                  He is. But most heavyweights aren't good enough to make him look clumsy.

                    Fury is huge. Has to be either a good super heavyweight or very special Heavyweight.

                    Ali
                    Foreman
                    Klitschkos (both in their prime)
                    Holmes
                    Lewis
                    Bowe
                    Tua

                    That's about it.

                      Silly talk.

                      Marciano and Tyson and Frazier are too small. Fury will hold and lean on them.

                      Need someone at least 6'3 and up to fight fury.

                      Only shortie that can hang with fury is Tua.

                      Tua weakness was he never works the body..... with fury he'll be working the body all night.
