I think Fury may call another fake retirement to avoid being positioned into another fight he doesn't want.
That would mean Usyk running the gauntlet of the mandatories .. which he could lose or give up the belts. Then Fury makes a comeback at end of year/early next year to cherry pick the easiest option.
I have to say, I'd not put it past him right now, and I have to call into doubt the whole mental illness schtick. Sometimes he does sound very belieavable, there was a recent interview, and what he described did sound a lot like someone who has sufferered from depression, aI know because I was diagnosed myself, and everything he described all sounded v ery familiar indeed.
There's also part of me, who thought he just went off the rails and got into doing loads of bugle and booze as a way of escparing having to actually defend his belt against Wlad.
The facts are, his career has had some good nights, but as a champion, he has been absolutely piss poor, and will go down in history as a bottle job if he doesn't do something meaningful with the tail end of his career.
