    Is Fury avoiding Usyk


    I was one of the rare few that didn’t believe in the whole ‘fury is ducking Usyk’ narrative. How could a guy who went to fight the most dangerous puncher in boxing in his own backyard whilst not even 100% fit, be afraid.

    But finding out today that Fury most likely won’t be taking the Saudi offer in December to fight Usyk, I now believe he’s avoiding him. He just doesn’t want to fight him for some reason. All I can think of is maybe fury is scared of usyks movement and the way he moves in the ring and changes angles and his boxing IQ.

    I don't think he fears anyone.

    But he also doesn't take any risk that he doesn't need to take.

    He'll fight a can. Or he'll fight a mandatory. In keeping with his entire career.

        Everyone is jealous and hating on the mighty Tyson Fury (GOAT)

          Seems so , fury could just be playing the time game on him , waiting for him to age in the ring.

          Usyk is 36 now and has a high volume style with fast reflexes and lots of movement. He wont be the same man in the ring for much longer. He will eventually lose a step.

          Furys style of fighting ages better, he could keep it up for years

            Can't say he avoiding, so much as has a far too high inflated understanding of his value, like too many boxers now.

            It takes two to rumble and he's learning that the hard way.

              Based on what. Simon Jordan keeps talking ****e and you lot eat up. The 4 man tournament was always a myth. And if fury vs usyk and wilder vs aj only one waa to happen in saudi end of the year or start of next, it will be fury usyk.

                There is literally no offer. Even the idiot Simon Jordan admits that. He pulled some amounts out of his *** few weeks ago like aj and wilder 30m each fury 90 etc and you lot all believed it.

                The facts are there is no offer. The saudi guy has confirmed this. He also said they are all having fights first so until then no fights can evem be discussed for saudi seriousoy.

                Usyk is fighting Dubois
                Wilder likely Ruiz
                AJ maybe Whyte
                Fury who knows

                even if whyte ruiz dont accept their offers wilder aj fury are still looking to fight. Its likely fury usyk aj wilder wont all have had their next fights by august so if it goes to sept. Then negotiations start which will be long there is no way its possible for them to even try to make a double header im dec
                not enough time. Too many obstacles to sort. I think the most likely scenario is Fury Usyk in Dec in Saudi if not then first quarter of 2024. AJ Wilder isn't happening before Fury Usyk and its not happening on the same night.

                What we know for a fact is Saudis have signed Usyk, it is Fury they need as the opponent.

                  Well, he turned down 70/30 to the winner of the first fight in favor of asking for 50 for the loser instead of only 30. Could have gotten 70 in BOTH fights if he was confident of winning. So yes, he is running scared from Usyk. Even though he's got a massive physical advantage and is a huge favorite.

                  TBH though, I think it's that he doesn't really like fighting, and Usyk isn't the kind of challenge that he gets up for as easily. If that's really the case, it's fair. Most people wouldn't even dream of risking their lives in the ring.

                    To me Usy k seems to want the fight more and making more effort, so does that make fury a ducker?
                    Fury risks someone beating usyk first!? You dont reallywant usy k losing in an ideal world
