Comments Thread For: Luis Ortiz Shakes His Head at Fury Fighting Chisora Next

[Roj]

The devil is in the details. It was NEVER about coming off a loss. This is all about being ready and available. Fury wishes to stay active. I do not love a 3rd match with Chisora and Fury did offer Joshua the fight. We can argue about semantics but I do not see King Kong making himself available for Dec 3rd nor have I read his claim anywhere that he'd be ready and clear for that date.

Today people slag Fury for Chisora, but tune-ups happen at heavyweight. How about these guys from the past: Scott Frank, Lucien Rodriguez, Scott LeDoux (Larry Holmes) or Richard Dunn (Ali) or Terry Daniels (Joe Frazier)?

Fury just fought in April - how much ring rust does he need to knock off to be ready for a supposed February 2023 fight with Usyk? This third fight with Chisora isn’t a tune up - it’s an easy cash grab at the expense of the suckers, er, fans who blindly worship Fury.

I'm not saying he doesn't want to fight the best, but this Chisora III shìte doesn't make him look any good.

Hey I agree

Who do you rate ?

Now that his mate Chisora has let the cat out of the bag regards 'the runner' and some reasons why he disappeared I'll bet you Joshua 'fan's' feel really ****** ....

Or is it still Fury's fault ffs!

Terrible choice by Fury. Fighting Chisora is not the same as fighting a tune-up. When you fight a tune-up, you only fight him once and that's it, not three times and overlook everyone else. Chisora has done zip to deserve a third fight. I praise Fury when I have to but not this time

You're not the only one shaking your head Luis. But to be fair, Fury can fight Joe Soap and sell out the stadium.

All completely true, however the past champs didn't fight lesser opponents thrice...

Seriously, I'm starting to believe they wanted to give Chisora a huge payday as a final goodbye.

Of course Chisora is a crap gimme fight. But Chisora alt least won his last fight vs a top 20 HW while Ortiz lost his.

Prior to his loss against Ruiz, Ortiz had won 5 of his previous 6 fights.

He also won 5 of his previous 7 fights.
