Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury is Seizing What He Believes is His Rightful Place

[hugh grant]

Sure I’m not doubting that he thinks he is at his peak. I can tell you if he was at his peak when fighting Klitschko and couldn’t manage throwing over 100 punches in the fight then it will be a very early night. Trust me it takes its toll cutting weight like that and by the amount he does. It drains fighters in the gym

I’ve no doubt. A lot of his early training was just to get weight off.
That’s why wilder has chance

Assuming they do go through with this and its a big if Fury will have to look at least decent against some lest face it terrible opposition. He really needs to stop this guy in style any top ten heavyweight would.

I assume they'll do some ring shouting when he wins. If Fury looks terrible in there again somebody pull this fight please its a waste of a good match up.

Had the fight even been 100% confirmed yet??? They are really taking their time...it’s been like 2 weeks...so much for quick work by Warren and Finkel.

We definitely agree on that. However even though I like Wilder I’ll never count Fury out

I can see Fury winnjng this fight, ruining everything for everyone and getting fat and retiring

Wilder's team initiated the talks, so this is all about their sensitive egos. They hate Hearn dictating the terms as if they have lots of options. And this is their way of getting back at him, prove something.

It's not about the quality of fights any more. It's about money, it's about proving you're worth something you're really not. It's sad.

Too much money involved , at that point .

The only reason Tyson came back was to beat the best recognised guy who IS Joshua and or get a huge payday , he gets neither with Wilder in comparison .

He knows Wilder is the more winnable fight so he MAY take a chance ? A chance i think he wins , but ........

[CJFRENCH]

Will they announce it after the fight on the 18th with Wilder stepping into the ring...

[Laligalaliga]

Tyson is only playing with a KO with his 30% fitness.

With fury active again he is instantly the man at heavyweight again and it’s not even debatable. Clearly the best heavyweight in England and in the entire world if he can beat the clear number 2 guy Deontay Wilder. Fury beat Wladimir easily, while a juicin j went life and death with him and low level Whyte. Wilder and fury are fighting to see who is undeniably the best in the world, the king of the heavyweights!

"I can see the athletic Fury doing to Wilder what he did to Klitschko" - Don't think I agree with that statement. As they say, Styles make fights, and Wilder's style is nothing like the style of Klitchko. Still I have a feeling this will be a fan frustrating fight to watch.
