Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury Sets New Goals, None Boxing Related: "I Want To Top The Forbes List"

He and his team used it as a marketing tool. To make money. And people bought it.

I've said it many times... don't listen to what Fury says, he's massively inconsistent.

But do look at what Fury does. He's incredibly consistent.

It was also the only "belt" he had back then. He is consistent in his lies. I'll give him that. Also consistent in dodging decent opponents

[Smash]

hes following in the footsteps of another guy who changed his name to Money

to even think about doing this u seem to have to have loads of money, which then makes you want even more money & larger amounts

nothing wrong with aiming for money but when it sidelines fights that clearly should happen at that point, its becomes marination for money, which is bad for the sport but good for the Money guy because its easier money to them

Just strip him. Does he not have a mandatory? I mean Usyk has like 3 of them and has already fought one. It’s kinda getting ridiculous holding the belt hostage.

LOL NOPE!!! bum squad wilder and fatty ruiz could not come to an agreement to fight in order to see who would be the number 1 contender. There is no mandatory. wbc said there won't be one for awhile as well.

And donating the earnings to charity. Lol

It's true W1LL saw him around Morcambe handing it out to the needy

GO CHAMPION!! You're the undefeated world champion and you do as you please.

Usyk has done nothing at all to distinguish himself as anybody to think about

9 defences of his 'lineal title'.

Against Pianeta, Seferi, Wallin, Schwarz, shot Chisora.
3 against the same man.
And Whyte.

If that's what the lineal title looks like, including a drugs ban in that period, then why are we still talking about it? It's worthless.

It will be 10 after Ngannou? 11 after Jones?

I should just appreciate that at least you didn't include his WWE win.

He could break the record fighting crossovers.

Haha, tagging people in random posts. Good shtick!
