Comments Thread For: Team Fury: David Price is Not Even on Our Radar

[right hand jab]

He promotes himself, that's what all the calling out is about. Business strategy. Fury was never confident of beating Price, and the loss would hamper his career path. Pretty simple, really.

Oh, I suppose that makes it ok then?...Talk an overabundance of sh#t and back down, with the same old excuses trawled out. Just in case anyone can put two and two together, and actually question Fury's motives. It's nothing more than a blatant duck!

It looks like Fury really is ducking Price.

He admitted it previously. From 28.30

Tyson Fury is, pure and simple, a buffoon!!!!!

He is a bum and any world class heavyweight knocks him clean out.

He always has a punchers chance as he is heavy handed but as soon as he steps up he gets destroyed. Price mangles him early IMO

"I couldn't fight Price because I was fat" is about the 6th excuse Fury has offered. The purse split, the fact that they fight on different TV channels, the fact that Price's promoter insulted him, the fact that Price isn't worthy because Fury is ranked #4 by the WBC and Price is only #8, and now the fact that he was out of shape. I think there were a few others as well.

Luckily for him Chisora didn't refuse to fight just because of being out of shape. If he did then Fury would be without his only good win.

Classic case of "Wait until others lose, retire and take it slow until you're considered the best."

Fury and Co. are biding their time until Wlad and Vitali are gone (retired, defeated, injured), up and comers lose to denounce their credibility, and just feast on journeymen/old fighters, win an alphabet title until you can claim to be the only name fighter to not have suffered a major defeat and call yourself the top HW.

Sometimes it just happens be default...it doesn't seem like fighters "take it" anymore...that means real dedication and effort to leave it all in the ring..something Arreola and Haye failed at...

The last fighter I remember REALLY trying to "take the throne" was Vitali vs Lennox Lewis..he had the face and wind to show for it

I've always liked Fury due to the entertainment he brings to his fights with his antics etc but this blatant ducking of Price is hard to defend.

Step up Fury and take the fight..

it's hardly news that Tyson has his eyes on world-title contention. it's been speculated for some time that this fight will be allowed to simmer until one of them grabs a strap.

lmao @ the Pricey kool-aid drinkers. you boys will see who's got the goods soon enough.

Well it's business. Calling out a fighter doesn't mean the fight will happen. Spewing puke is normal. Look at this forum. It's fine to say 'duck', it doesn't mean he wouldn't want to fight Price, but at this stage in his career, perhaps it's not the right move.

[S. Saddler 1310]

it's too high a compliment to Price to even call him a poor man's Primo Carnera.
