Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury Challenges Promoter Frank Warren To Stage Summer Fight in England

[Oldskoolg]

So basically, what I’m picking up from this is that big money fights are really no longer possible in the U.K., all the big British fights now have to be in Saudi

[Butt stuff]

So what's the problem here then? It's hard to believe that no one is willing to fight Fury to become WBC champion and then the chance to fight for undisputed. But its almost like the power is reversed and the challenger has control because of the previous difficulties in securing an opponent, so they can demand more than they are really worth and that the fight will support.

Yep, Fury's clearly the problem. AJ at his zennith never struggled to get fights – in fact fighters were falling over each other for a shot.

There may come a point were Queensbury and Warren have to confront Fury.

The entire Fury vs Usyk negotiations made Queensbury look really unprofessional 'And I don't think it was down to them'.

It is crystal clear that Tyson Fury is being allowed to behave in certain ways as a Champion 'Because he is Tyson Fury'.

Note: Tyson Fury is the WBC World Heavyweight Champion, and with that comes requirements. A Champion must fight their nearest competition.

This is what Fury seems to not want to do 'Or it is time after time again, unnecessarily difficult for his nearest competition to actually fight him'.

This never happened during the Kiltschko era, Lewis era, Holyfield reign, Mike Tyson reign. And people may mock Joshua, but the man routinely fought his nearest competition 'This is proven by the fact that he has fought more World level fighters consecutively than Fury'.

All Tyson Fury needs to do, is fight a World level fighter 'Pick a fighter at this level, objectively there are 10 fighters statistically at any given time that can be rated at this level. In all fighting organisations'.

I personally think Fury may drop back down to domestic and European level. This is how he has always operated in between big fights 'And I believe Fury on some level may have engineered this situation, so he can proceed in this fashion while? Appearing like he wanted to 100% make these other big fights.

But I don't think honest boxing fans, and even the public are convinced that Fury left no stone upturned to make these other big fights. Whether they will admit it or not, even his hardcore fans are aware of Fury's games etc.

Hard to judge too definitively. AJ only fought two voluntary defences post Klitschko and one of them was a unification fight.

But Ruiz got about $7M as a voluntary, admittedly in tricky circumstances for team Joshua after Miller's late drop out.

Parker was on 35% and the bigger share of the pot if there was a rematch. A decent offer for Parker considering he wasn't exactly a significant champion.

Fury doesn't seem to have been willing to match those kinds of offers. And Usyk is a much more significant champion and bigger fight.

Who's out there?! Who's available?! (Zhilei) Zhang?! He was a good looking fight, but (Joe) Joyce wants his rematch. That's not happening now. So, I'm looking to fight anybody, anytime, anywhere."

And just like that, Fury goes off social media again....

That list sucks

The ****** Saudi money has sidelined Wilder & Joshua until dec. I hope for the sake of boxing that something can be pulled together in England with Fury. At least Tyson is talking about boxing , so called fighters like Wilder and Joshua have gone to radio silence. Whyte and Chisora are completely done and should only be fighting each other. What a ****ing mess.

[Monty Fisto]

Maybe Warren should give Del Boy a call and see if he's available.

[juggernaut666]

The real challenge is actually getting you to make realistic demands and sit you down and discuss what a fight is worth , so Warrens actual challenge is getting you the least likely opponent to be a threat to you and explain what type of money it generates to make it go ahead .

Give Wallin his chance

He's in the running but his problem is that he hasn't been busy enough since. One really meaningful win. He should coax Robert Helenius into the ring to see who rules the Northmen.
