Comments Thread For: Warren: Fury Doesn't Want To Wait For Wilder Till 2021 - Let's Fight Joshua Next

[removed]

Nobody is ducking that bum, Fury just has bigger fish to fry.

I have no issues at all about Fury dropping the belt. Everyone knows he's #1 regardless.

Whyte is more than welcome to pick up the belt from the bin, but he'll just be another paper champion, nothing more.

Now that Wilder’s chin has been cracked once he’s going to get dropped again.
At his age he is what he is. He isn’t going to suddenly learn to use his jab and cut off the ring with footwork and angles. He’s a head hunter just looking to land one big shot.
He’s looking to cash out with a third fight to Fury vs take short money to lose to someone like Whyte.

Arum, Haymon and Warren have always avoided Whyte. It's not that they think he beats their guy but he is a risk and outside of their agenda.

I do believe if Fury fights Joshua next he will get beat. Style makes fights and AJ is a more complete, well-rounded and fundamentally sound fighter than Deontay Wilder who lacks boxing ability.

In my opinion, because Fury still needs to validate his status as #1. Everyone knows that Fury is only #1 because he is unbeaten. The rankings are so flimsy, its unbelievable.

He doesn't need to, beating Whyte validates him, beating Wilder validates him, beating Joshua validates him. And from what am getting they don't want to fight Whyte even if Joshua and Wilder aren't the next fights for Fury.

That is where i have an issue. Fury cannot and shouldn't drop the belt. Because he would then come around later and claim he won all the belts and politics took it away from him etc.

He did that with Joshua, and he would do that with Whyte, am kinda getting irritated by Arum and Warren at the moment. If the Fury/Wilder 3 fight isn't happening anytime soon and Whyte gets by Povetkin then let's have Fury/Whyte, thats if Whyte and his team can find the funds and location to stage the fight.
