    Remember when Fury was a "scared coward running from the re-match"?

    Featherfisted, scared coward was it? Going to duck the re-match?

    Morons here said he should turn down $100m and just let Wilder beat him.

    Bet you wish he hadn't accepted that $100m and still whipped Wilder anyway, huh?

    Wilder "scared him into wrestling" too huh?

    Well, well, well. Fury makes more money, has accomplished more, has a better resume, owns Wilder and will accomplish more moving forward and crush Wilder again and Wilder will cry again.

    Well Wilder more than anyone accused him of ducking, and in the build up said he was "weak" and mentally fragile because of his mental health issues.

    Honestly everyone was saying how Wilder "won" the press conference, my take in one of threads was that to me he was the one that was showing mental fragility because he kept shouting over Fury as soon as Fury started talking. It is something someone does when they are scared what you're going to say will hurt their feelings

      It is an absolute fact that Fury ran from the rematch by signing with TR and taking 2 easy fights rather than the immediate rematch. His beating Wilder's ass doesn't in any way change that.

      Fury made the right business decision and capitalized on his performance in the 1st Wilder fight by making a few million with TR.

        Ran? Yeah I dont think so. Looking to even the odds promotionally and get back to his physical best is not running. If anything he took the first fight prematurely and the rematch proved that. If there were no logical reasons behind it and the rematch never happened you could call it running...but I guess you have to get your little digs in, I think I understand you at this point.

          Posting lies again. The draw issued a renegotiation to a rematch clause already in place so you can’t run from an already agreed to contract we all knew was going to take place after Wilder fought his mandatory Breazeale . Wilder was the one that declined the immediate rematch in the U.K that is an actual fact .

            Not even a jab really. I get exactly what Fury did and don't blame him at all. That said, I think its fair to point out the move delayed the rematch.

            Fury made side money then made a huge check beating Wilder's ass. In the end he clearly made the right choices and will benefit short and long term from it.

              But Wilder/PBC fanboys wouldn't accept it as a business decision. They were harping on about Fury being terrified of Wilder after being knocked into a coma in the 12th round, blah blah ...

                That is because you and guys like you never allowed business decisions to be valid excuses for moves fighters made before that. You guys always made everything "ducking" even when commonsense told you it was just the best business decision.

                You shouldn't be surprised or upset when Fury did this fans of Wilder decided to do the same thing.

                    No you don't. You only get blamed for the things you are responsible for creating.

                    Whenever a prominent fight didn't happen, posters such as yourself were always quick call someone a "ducker". For example, when Stevenson signed with SHO, you didn't talk about him making a good business move, just being a ducker. Now when Fury signed with TR, you didn't call him a ducker at all. There are other examples but I think you get it.

                    All moot because no matter what has been posted Fury not only won those fights, he demolished Wilder in the rematch.
