Comments Thread For: Whyte Says Fury Cried After Sparring, Fury Fires Back at Claims

[Boxviewer]

Going right back at the guy who humiliated you isn't the best example of cowardice (if you are talking about Wilder).

Wilder has no choice due to his mountain high ego. He to activate the clause or retire in a shameful fashion. He was a champion for good 5 years but he didn't have the ball to unify anything. He thought that he could easily beat a out of shape Fury. The rest is history. We all knew he was ducking Whyte for good two year!

So why running? Let Fury take him to the cleaners in the ring if he's confident enough he can do that, no matter which version of Fury. Otherwise Fury is just a coward.

It all depends on how the schedule pans out. There was a clear timeline in place pre-Covid where Fury would have had the chance to fight Whyte while Joshua was dealing with his mandatories assuming that he wins the Wilder rematch, but now the schedule has been trashed by the pandemic and it's really hard to say when things will be rescheduled for and what kind of timeline to expect. If things end up the same way and Joshua's unavailable for a long time, after the Wilder rematch, whenever that is, he might as well fight Whyte and resolve the WBC mandatory situation once and for all. However, if the opportunity for Fury to fight Joshua presents itself then I'd rather see that, even if it means that corners have to be cut. Having been starved of live boxing for so long I really just want to see the best fights that can be made.

I will type it again.....Wilder going RIGHT BACK AT THE MAN WHO HUMILIATED HIM is a poor example of cowardice.

Running away to fight a lesser man and then waiting a year of 2 for a 3rd fight is.

Love of hate Whyte you gotta admit he's been the #1 guy at keeping his name in the media during a fooking pandemic. That's a solid accomplishment for a guy who's best W is a amateur win over AJ.

He has beaten better boxers than Wilder dare fight. He has been denied a shot despite being No1 contender for 3 years.

Over 1000 days as number 1, yet Wilder fights unranked nobody's instead and you fall for the bs.

Whyte has a single loss to a multi belt world champion and yet Wilder fights nobody's and avoids him for 3 years, preferring to fight useless lumps like Breazeale instead.

Tell me please, how can Whyte have a career defining achievement if he is feared and avoided by the top heavyweights and denied a title shot for over 3 years?

*** Whyte and all his fans, the Gypsy King isn't giving him s***

Fair enough, but if Fury is intent on keeping the WBC title then it isn’t his choice to make unless he wants to get stripped.

Then let’s see whether that 50-50 offer with AJ still stands with Fury no longer bringing the WBC belt to the table. Chances are it won’t, and that proposed fight ends up in jeopardy with Fury not wanting less.

For the sake of boxing, let Fury honour his mandatory against Whyte in the same way that Klitschko honoured his mandatory against Fury all those years ago. If Fury is as good as advertised, he can give Whyte an absolute hiding and then we can get to the fight we all want to see.

Fury is going to fight Joshua, a unified champion and someone who is a superior fighter to Whyte and who has previously layed him out.

If the WBC strip Fury and give the title to Whyte, then fine, Dillian just becomes yet another paper champion.

Tyson Fury is the boss of the division until someone beats him, belts are irrelevant. Fury never lost AJs belts in the ring anyway.

Nobody is scared of that fat bum.

Whyte should rematch Parker, the man who had him stumbling around the ring like a drunk and had to hang on for life for the final bell.

Or maybe he should rematch the mighty Chisora, he's 1-1 with him now.

I agree that Whyte becomes a paper champion if the WBC just give him the title, but the fact is belts are clearly not irrelevant.

From a promotional marketing and legacy perspective, belts will ALWAYS have weight. You say Fury is going to fight Joshua, but this is assuming that losing the WBC belt has no impact on the financial terms already agreed and the other terms yet to be finalised.

Whether you care to admit it or not, Fury loses leverage without it and the fight which wasn’t even a full certainty in the first place, becomes more at risk.

I would like the best to fight the best as well. But first dues have to be paid where deserved. If Fury and AJ are the best they will surely face eachother somewhere in summer 2021, August/September.

Fury vs Joshua will be 50/50 and that's that, belts or no belts. Hearn has already talked about Joshua possibly dropping the WBO if it's necessary to make the Fury fight. Fury is still the lineal/ring champion and will be until beaten or retired.

All the fans know that Fury vs Joshua is THE fight in the division, it's a legacy fight and both fighters know it.

Whyte is just a pathetic grass, who can only dream of getting anywhere near Fury's achievements in boxing.

I'd enjoy watching Shane give his fake brother a slap as well.
