Tyson Fury signing with Matchroom?

[Eff Pandas]

I think what happened with UKAD made Fury realise that if you upset the powers that be in the UK, they will take you down .. whoever you are.

LOL nah they don't f#ck around. I was surprised they suspended that guy recently who didn't really say anything bad about that cat who died he was just being emo & sh^t with his comment & they was like "SUSPENDED" within 24hrs or less I think.

Pulev would be a bigger step in talent than I had expected for his return fight.

Matchroom have MTK managed fighters on the books. Chamberlain and Fielding are just two off the top of my head. So I don't think that will have any real influence on the situation.

The MTK connection is just one factor amongst several others doe. I could be wrong, but I think it more likely that Fury would sign with Warren rather than Hearn, if the option to fight AJ on Sky PPV was part of the contract.

Tyan Booth. He also said he would probably end up in a wheelchair like Gerald McClellan, because he'd been drinking cider and not training for 3 months and he had a fight coming up in a couple of weeks.

They couldn't let him fight after that. What if he had ended up in a wheeelchair or dead?

Why do you doubt it?

Seems ideal to do something with the Joshua fight looming if Fury can notch a couple wins.

The UK promoters working together doesn't seem as problematic as US promoters working together, but its always easier to make a fight when someone is under the same umbrella all the same.

I doubt it because Fury doesn't like Hearn and he knows that Hearn doesn't have good intentions for him.

It would make a lot more sense if he signed with Frank who he already has a relationship with and where he can join Billy Joe.

But then Hearn can dangle the sky carrot.

There are problems in the UK. Warren and Hearn won't work together outside of a purse bid scenario. Both have deals with two different TV Channels. If Fury was to sign with Frank like I expect then that does make the Joshua fight harder to make.

A month ago Fury wasn't willing to fight Shannon Briggs in his first fight back, but now he'll fight Pulev right out of the gate?

I mean, that kind of insanity would be par for the course for Fury, so who knows?

EDIT: Nahhhh. Hearn is too smart to let that happen... that's WAY too much of a gamble given the potential for Joshua-Fury.

only thing fury is doing is talking about fighting.

mroom threw their money away on fury (unless hes their spokesperson).

I think Hearn has signed rivals of his home fighters before and done them well - Whyte for example. Now Amir Khan.

It doesn't really matter if Hearn personally would want Fury to lose in a potential Joshua fight imo.

The important thing is that the fight can be made - And it can't be made if Fury is with Frank.
