But also who is going to want to fight Fury without a title on the line?
Or are they planning on giving him one of his belts back!
I suppose he could at least get an interim or an Emirates

Re: Tyson Fury to be co-promoted by Top Rank
Surely Fury is not going to take a big UK fight after signing a 5 fight ESPN deal?
Pulev, Parker & Ortiz(?) seem like possible 'top ~10' opponents, although im not sure id go out of my way to watch any of those live.
Jennings, Rivas & Ruiz Jr seem like the other obvious options but are youtube/pirate bay specials for the following day(s) if not on the BT sports sub.
This deal is obviously shite for boxing fans but absolutely superb for Tyson Fury. I thought he beat Wilder but looked crap compared to 2015.
I hope he can use the time & money to get back to his best, if not fair play to the fella. Great business move and im sure he will be aiming to spend every penny of it on him & his before clocking out and i cant fault a man for that.

Re: Tyson Fury to be co-promoted by Top Rank
He said he wants to fight 3 times a year. He’s running out of time this year. He said 2 fights in US and one in the UK. The UK fight will obviously be on ESPN but as it’s not prime time, it might not be part of his 5-fight deal.Pukka Cheese wrote: ↑27 Feb 2019, 14:05Surely Fury is not going to take a big UK fight after signing a 5 fight ESPN deal?![]()
