Shannon Briggs would do for me.

Make it a final eliminator.

Peter Fury just tweeted there will be a press conference on Monday with Hennessy & W.a.r.r.e.n. in London.

I reckon opponent has been decided upon and I think it will be Ustinov.

They've offered it to Lucas but Hatton wants more money.

Wont be Chagaev, Fury would lose his WBO mandatory if he became WBA regular champion!

Which means he won't 'have' to fight Wlad. Sit on that strap for a while, build the fight and either wait until Wlad gets old or retires and hey presto. :OhYes:

It is a brilliant plan if he wants to make more money in the long run

Haye, Price or Joshua are the any real credible opponents...

If it is, it further enhances my view of Fury's character.

Yeah, a fight might break out! :oo
