    I do not buy the fact he is scared of Usyk. I think it comes down to $$ with Fury and he wants the lions share for every fight regardless. Saudi passed on this fight for a good reason...Usyk is not a draw. He is not gonna KO anybody. He is going to dance around and pop shot all night.

    If you all thought Fury/Wlad was boring, this fight would be WORSE. There would be a lot of holding and a lot of jabbing. Fury knows he is not gonna chase Usyk all night so he will just wear him out by leaning on him. The only way this fight makes $$ is being in the UK and Fury is the A side. Even if Fury lost, he should still be the A side because Usyk is not an exciting fighter.

      I’d like to see Ruiz.

      To me that makes sense.

        Gonna drag up old ass Antonio Tarver and act like it's a halfway decent pairing while kissing his own ass and belittling all the other fighters in the division.

          If he can handle Wilder why isn't he getting stuck in there?!!
          Light years in boxing ability,talent and skills between what Wilder brings in there compared to Usyk.

          Fury is a prideful guy and the possibility of Usyk embarrassing him in there is what probably scares him the most. Not really losing,but the possibility of Usyk undressing him,making him appear ordinary....my 2 cents.

            Yes, and we know what that reason was. The Saudi head of boxing said that one guy wanted more money than the whole event would generate for both of them. We know who that guy was.

            We also know that the Saudis didn't pass on Usyk's last fight and that they wanted him back, otherwise they wouldn't have bid for Usyk vs Fury in the first place.

              Whoever has the least knock out percentage in the top 15 is the guy he’ll most likely fight . He’s not going to give the fans any fight they want as long as he’s the champion outside undisputed or if a mandatory pops up .

              If we get lucky he’ll,shock us all and fight a guy like Mahkmudov who at least is an aggressive puncher who throws a lot of punches , if we’re all lucky he knocks Fury out cold so we do t have to listen how great he is anymore while trying to smear other fighters in the process and he retires but he’ll look at that one and decide he’s to unpredictable of a puncher and go for Kabayel imop .

                My money is on Joseph Parker. The excuse is he's a rated former champion coming off a win. Parker smells like a Fury move to me.
                I wouldn't mind Ruiz however I expect his recent ejection from home to cause him to indulge beyond reasonable measure. He won't be prepared to fight.

                  What is Fury training for now? For what actual fight date?

                  Team Fury just seem to have gone all quiet. No potential opponents have been seriously mentioned.

                  Are they waiting for Joyce & Zhang to take place?

                  David Price has stated that it would be highly uncharacteristic for Fury to fight Joyce now.

                  Although Fury really should fight Joyce 'I can honestly see him taking two more ticking over fights, in quick concession'.

                  Fury may receive criticism for this, but he is more than most other Champions less effected by this sort of pressure.

                  Joyce & Ruiz Junior with full notice, are high level dangerous fights 'Where Fury is not really gaining big rewards'.

                  Check Fury's career, he will take big fights when he absolutely has to 'And when thete are titles and extreme prestige to gain'.

                  That is how Fury operates, if those rewards are not on the line 'He will most likely just tick over'.

                    - - The Feel has already robbed what little manhood Blubber had left after AJ previously stripped him.

                    Alas, poor Gypsy. I knew him well, and where be his gibes now, his gambols, his songs, his flashes of Fury that set the sports in a roar?

                    They laugh to mock him hanging on to the Wheezer Boxing Council belt, already too small gathering dust in his shoe closet.​
