Fury won’t train through Chrissy and will be 300lb by New Year’s Day. So I think February is ambitious, my prediction is if it happens (big if) it will close the saudi season… they seemed so proud to open it, can see them making a big deal about closing it and using that to justify pushing it to late march early April.

To Big Doufus.

Don’t tell us Usyk has fled East again ever again.

Your rhetoric doesn’t fly anymore.

Your mate GK got beaten up by a novice. A Neanderthal slugger who, to be fair looked very comfortable in there. A few fancy flicks won a terrible fight for the GK. awful.

Thats it.

The December 23rd date was always dependent on how Fury came through the Ngannou fight. That point was made often enough pre-fight, by everybody including Arum and Warren, that it can't come as a shock to anybody that the date is now in doubt.

How many times in recent years has a reigning heavyweight champion fought a tough fight and then defended his title only 2 months later?

“Usyk’s a sausage," Fury told Sky Sports this week. “I expect it to be taking place in December, that’s what I’ve been told, so I’ve got no reason to disbelieve it. Usyk has to fight me in December, doesn’t have a choice. He signed the contract, so if he doesn’t, he’s breached contract and he gets sued. So he doesn’t really have a choice.”
but usyk geting sued if he doesnt fight in december! :lol:

No it wasn’t. Fury was threatening legals if it didn’t happen.

You are literally defending the indefensible.

I'm simply repeating what Arum and Warren said before the fight :TU:

Bob Arum 4th October :

“It depends primarily on Fury’s condition after this Ngannou fight,” Arum said. “If Fury emerges with no hand problems, no cuts and so forth, it’ll be earlier rather than later. But it’ll be in the winter. It’ll be in the winter and will be certainly before Ramadan.”

What a shit Christmas Fury's going to have when Usyk kicks in his door just as he's plonked his arse down for The King's Xmas Speech and beats the pork and sage stuffing out of him just because of a legally binding contract they both signed. No-one wants to get sued.

I will accept AJ - Wilder in on the 23rd December and Fury-Usyk in February.

Ngannou fights both winners on the same night in April!
The past 7 years has told us that AJ’s not going near Wilder.

The trolls had nothing to say about Usyk refusing to fight Fury last December because he had fought in August.

Someone's finally managed to pull their tear covered fingers away from their eyes to type again. :cry: :cry: :cry:

You feeling OK Doofy? You've been extremely quiet since Saturday? This must have hurt you deeply, how embarrassing. It's OK, we understand. If you need help to get through this then I know of a group that will listen and you can feel free to open up.

I heard Feb 17th is a date. Time will tell though. Fury in a corner, he has to take the fight now after all his shit talk and this supposed contract.

There wasn't a legally binding contract that would allow Fury to sue Usyk then. :yay: :lol: :lol:

You have nothing to say about Fury refusing to fight Usyk in December. He's not cut, he said it himself. Hell, he even showed that he's not on a video. Listen Mr Doofus, your lad got his arse handed to him by a glorified kickboxer. Admit it, your boy looked like stir-fried sh1te on Saturday. He's shot, his punch resistance is gone and he needs to retire before he gets badly hurt.

How about this for preparing to back out of the Uysk fight speak from Fury's team:

Todd deBouef: " I haven't felt any of the parties involved, that were ready to do this in December, going in a different direction other than going forward.

Now we are just trying to fine tune some of this, the date and everything like that. I think there's a promise, there's a glimmer of hope out there, a big glimmer, that this will hopefully come to fruition".

That's quite a different tone from pre Ngannou fight.

My guess is that since Fury got turned over by Ngannou, they know for certain now that Uysk would smoke Fury.

Yeah I don’t even think it’s an exciting match up. Fury doesn’t seem to have much left to offer but gob, a lot of jittery movement and air jabs. It’s bound to be an awful fight. I’d prefer to see Usyk navigate the dangers of Zhang and Wilder.

Don’t be silly. Usyk needs to get Fury’s scalp to get full credit as the best heavyweight of the generation.

Yes I agree - Usyk needs to beat Fury before someone else does next and the undisputed gets even further away.

fWank will no doubt be panicking about how much longer the WBC allow Fury to stall before they strip him, or who fWank can get to take the title off him to have some longevity at the top table.

It's not just Fury's days at the top table coming to an end, fWank's days are too. He thought he had a solid prospect in Dubois to keep him there - but Dubois turned out to be very very fragile and not going anywhere.
Fury will be stalling to line up another Netflix series - fWank will be stalling to sign up another prospect ..

For me, the four belts are irrelevant. The winner of Usyk-Fury is the man regardless of which belts are on the line.

I agree with this however,
The longer Fury strings everyone along with pointless “stay busy” fights and meaningless exhibitions. His stock rescinds further and being in the “The Man” conversation becomes laughable.

We were told by the whole Fury camp, Fwank included, the fights done, agreed- Dec 23rd.
Then why oh why did the Ngannou farce happen? Why?
Coz Fury was bang outta shape and though it was such a cakewalk it didn’t matter.
Oh it did Luke. It really did.

I don't think he'll ever be mentally right again. Usyk is very strong mentally IMO.
