    Yes, with Josh looking vulnerable I can see tyson licking his lips at his chance of beating josh. I don't think Tyson will pass it up, but retirement isn't far from Tyson mind. Take it one fight at a time.
    Who knows, if ddd beats usyk, then I'm sure fury might fancy ddd too.
    If DDD beats Usyk it will not be a points decision, it has to be a violet stoppage and in that case Tyson would probably not touch DDD with a six foot pole.

      I'm fine with no Fury-Joshua fight. Fury would've outboxed him easily.

      There are heavyweight fights that never happened that I wish we could've seen, like Lewis vs Bowe, though they fought in the amateurs, Bowe vs M.Tyson and Foreman-Tyson.

Other than that, who has he really beat? He almost lost against a guy who never boxed before, fought a shot Chisora 3 times and other guys like Whyte were compete garbage. When he finally fought someone good, he lost twice against a guy 6" shorter and 60 lbs lighter.

        Fury's biggest advantage was his height but he had no power.
        Tell that to Wilder.

          One last win might tempt him but what's the point really? If he fights a soft touch we already know he's going to win, and if he takes on a threat he might lose or get hurt.

          ​​​ Personally, I'd have retired a long time ago. Once I got 10 or 20 million in the bank I couldn't see the point in
          getting punched in the face
          .
          Fighters are a different kind of breed. They like causing pain and accept that they may receive some as well.

            Fury suffers from severe mood swings. He is up today and then down tomorrow. Next week he would announce that he was never retiring and fight Anthony Joshua at Wembley; Perhaps sometime in the late spring of this year.

              Always says there's someone more to fight? Fury s not had a 100 fight career like duran, so what's wrong with 2 more?
              Nobody asked you to wait 10 years to fight josh. If you don't want Josh fight ddd first, the man who best josh.
              Actually, best josh first, so at least you've equalled what ddd did
              I agree that the fight vs Ngannou did some harm to Fury's legacy, especially when AJ later destroyed Frances in two rounds. But the Usyk losses didn't ruin his legacy at all. He fought the best in the division and lost two competitive fights. There's no shame in that.

                I was being a bit dramatic but ruined legacy in terms of instead of being best of era he's been downgraded.
                I mean foreman and frasier probably weren't best of era too but they were nobodies fool, and neither is fury. I like fury.

                  Not very likely that fury stays retired. He’s to unstable for that.

                    Tyson Fury is trolling us all. He shall return. He has too much fight left him in not too.

                    I repeated this in an earlier post but Fury has never been over matched or even decisively defeated in his entire career.

                    He’s never been KO, stopped or even beaten up in the ring before. His only losses came from a man who was both exceptional and with a special talent; Which was Okeksandr Usyk.

                    Likewise, even those two fights were close. Many boxing fans believed he won both of the them as well.

                      I would love to see this fact
                      I’ve never heard any boxing analysts say that
                      Not one mentioned that Fury deserved any of those fights
                      I call bullchit on this one
                      Didn't have a dog and really dislike everything about Fury
                      He's the only one who thought he won
