Re: Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk - Spring 2023
I don’t really get why people don’t think Fury will fight Usyk. The guy fought Klitschko in his adopted country and fought Wilder away from home 6 months after being morbidly obese.
I genuinely think he’d fight anyone. He’s just mentally up and down so much he doesn’t realise his stupid deadlines gave Matchroom/258 an out that they wanted for the AJ fight.

Re: Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk - Spring 2023
That's right. It's Usyk, who causes delays. He forced a delay of the Joshua rematch. After that he made a call out of Fury and announced another hiatus right at the same. Fury always aims at valuable fights. That's why he picked the marketable Chisora, when he has to wait for Usyk and doesn't have any mandatories.maverick23 wrote: ↑10 Nov 2022, 03:41 I don’t really get why people don’t think Fury will fight Usyk.

Re: Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk - Spring 2023
In fairness to Uysk, the delay to the Joshua rematch was caused by his country being invaded by Russia. Similarly, post the Joshua rematch he has a lot of commitments in Ukraine and America as a result of the war with his Uysk Foundation.DrDuke wrote: ↑10 Nov 2022, 03:46That's right.

Re: Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk - Spring 2023
I get Usyk’s reasons for not wanting to fight Fury in December. It can’t have been easy leaving his family to go and train for the AJ rematch so wanting to rest for 3-4 months before going into camp for Fury is understandable.DrDuke wrote: ↑10 Nov 2022, 03:46That's right.

Maybe Usyk might be harder to deal with now he holds a lot of the cards.
Re: Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk - Spring 2023
Fury is scared of fighting NO MAN that is a fact , the guys a massive monster , he's never been beat has a pro , he's been boxing from what 7-8 years of age , anyone who believes he's frightened of another man needs his head read , he's scared of NO ONE .maverick23 wrote: ↑10 Nov 2022, 03:41 I don’t really get why people don’t think Fury will fight Usyk.

However him and to an extent his team meaning his familly i believe are scared of him losing , that i think is why his resume is poor , he will not take chances if he does'nt have too ,, the Klitchko fight well really pror to that he was'nt excatly fighting the best available was he , it was a calculated risk and it turned out well for them Klitchko looked old that night and Fury did'nt excatly set the world on fire with his win ,,, not to mention he refused to give him a rematch ,, Wilder well once again another calculated risk but was it once you actually study Wilders form it was'nt great was it , he never really beat top guys , now who cares what he says or what his fans say facts are he's taking another safety fight ,, what for well who knows , is it to just rake in the dollars , is it to get an easy win before he fights a good fighter , suppose after this one we will have the answer

Did Fury say he doesn't class Usyk as his era?
Re: Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk - Spring 2023
Yes, which makes no sense since they are both title holders in the same era!

Re: Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk - Spring 2023
So, you are saying that Fury entered into negotiations for a Joshua fight knowing that it was unlikely to happen because of the arbitration.BigDoofus wrote: ↑10 Nov 2022, 07:11big lennox wrote: ↑10 Nov 2022, 04:54What about Fury boxing Wilder for a third time after Joshua signed to box him.

There is a pattern here as he entered into negotiations with Joshua this autumn and imposed bizarre deadlines..
A touch of cowardice, perhaps.

I put a link on to an article in which a rival promoter says what he thought would happen. It doesn't say what Fury or I thought.
Are you feeling well within yourself?

Technically you are correct. However, there are not many that thought he deserved to win the first fight with Big John.coneye wrote: ↑10 Nov 2022, 04:31Fury is scared of fighting NO MAN that is a fact , the guys a massive monster , he's never been beat has a pro , he's been boxing from what 7-8 years of age , anyone who believes he's frightened of another man needs his head read , he's scared of NO ONE .maverick23 wrote: ↑10 Nov 2022, 03:41 I don’t really get why people don’t think Fury will fight Usyk.

Years ago now, but he didnt win that fight in my opinion.
As far being scared of Usyk, no way. He`ll fight any man born from his mother and twice on Sundays.

It's not trolling, I keep on hearing that Fury would beat two fighters on the same evening and is not scared of any man born from his mother etc etc. Yawn.
And yet, he has not boxed Joshua, Uysk, Ruiz Jnr or Joyce. Nor did he rematch Klitschko once his Drugs test failure had become public. It always seems to be everyone else's failures/ducking him, but one has to question his desire to take on the best in his division. No problem if he doesn't, as its a blooming hard sport, but don't say that you do if it's not the case.
I do think Boxing is going down the swanny at the moment and has a reputation for the best not fighting the best. Last weekend, one could watch Ronnie o'sullivan and Judd Trump duke it out in an epic encounter on the snooker table and they'll probably do so again next month in the UK Championships.
Meanwhile in boxing, Spence and Crawford are not boxing each other and Fury has opted to box Chisora for a third time. Its just pathetic.

Your Daily Fury rant.
Usyk turned it down, Joshua needs a mental rest and the other 2 both said it was too early for them. But you already know that.

Uysk will give Tyson Fury nightmares.
I think it is a fantastic fight and one in which will get a lot of interest.
It will break previous PPV records.
I cannot wait.

Re: Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk - Spring 2023
I remember an interview a few years ago now where Fury advised Chisora to retire because he was concerned that he could get hurt; he felt that Hearn wasn't looking after Chisora by putting him in with the best when he should actually be hanging them up..and here we are with Fury vs Chisora III
Big Doofus, will you be going to the fight? What's your prediction?
Chisora's corner pull him out?
The ref saves Chisora from further punishment? Or
Fury knocks him out?

That's it, you can't go around claiming to be the best since Ali, yet haven't backed it up. He may well be the best around, but until he has fought the best, we simply don't know.

Fvck the IBF.
Is it correct that they used to be corrupt?
