Is Fury stepping over the top rope on May 18th?
To face Usyk, not in a reverse limbo game in his back garden.
Do you expect Tyson to pull out again? Or is his leaner physique a sign that it's happening?
Does the dubious 10 million dollar fine dictate?

As I've said for years, only time I actually believe Tyson is fighting is about 5 seconds before the opening bell.

ya he will fight on the 18th
Re: Is Fury stepping over the top rope on May 18th?
He’ll have to, this time. Too much money on the table.
Re: Is Fury stepping over the top rope on May 18th?
Be a uproar if it doesnt happen. i would say 95% it still does.
The only way i dont think it happens if Fury is shot to pieces and wants to avoid it get more money out of the AJ fight.
Thou any version of Fury vs AJ would still be a big fight you would think its less likely to happen iF Usyk easily beats Fury.

I can't see him not fighting, too much money and looks to have lost weight for it.

Re: Is Fury stepping over the top rope on May 18th?
He will fight. Be mad not to, crazy money.
My big question is will he try fight long using his legnthnadvantage. Or inside using his weight advantage.
I honestly don’t know what I recommend for Tyson there.. probably a bit of both avoiding mid range..

Re: Is Fury stepping over the top rope on May 18th?
I.ve not seen pics of him . To be honest lost all interest in him But if he has lost weight and looks in good condition you would have to assume he.s going for it . Dont think fines or talk of them will bother him . After all what shiek dib a doo doo gonna do about it when hes told to fook off were not paying . I.M A bit intrigued how is he gonna approach this fight sugar hills mauling and holding will be a hard task against this fella

I think he pulls out. I don't see him fighting Usyk. All that money isn't worth the loss to him when he has many millions in the bank already.

I reckon he'll try some klitschko ring size etc tactics against Usyk in the days running up to the fight. everything he can.TheLeprechaun wrote: ↑07 Apr 2024, 00:09 I think he pulls out.

no worries, I wasn't having a go. was just looking at the poll numbers and the responses here and wondering!
Fury's looking like he's in good shape this time and I'm sure they'll come up with something for Usyk. can't wait to see this fight

He will look like a right plumb if he doesn't, not sure he cares though 50/50 for me.

Re: Is Fury stepping over the top rope on May 18th?
I think he fights and I think he wins a close decision. I presume whatever the result there will be a rematch, it’ll probably take another year for them to fight a second time…

Re: Is Fury stepping over the top rope on May 18th?
I won't believe it until I see Fury in the ring and the bell rings. I am anticipating Uysk vs Hrgovic. I hope I am wrong, though.
Re: Is Fury stepping over the top rope on May 18th?
Shame really that this fella has gone from British hero to British clown , Just has well this skiek fella wants to dabble in boxing for now , because really if it was in the UK who would go , who would trust him to show up and book hotels buy tickets ect ect .
Guy needs to show up , fight , and get back some support, so he does'nt completly tarnish his legacy , if he has one that is . but above all distance himself from his idiot father , who i actually think is the biggest contributer towards the turn in popularity towards Tyson

Re: Is Fury stepping over the top rope on May 18th?
Good point about the Saudi location papering over the cracks of his UK popularity slump. I actually think Tyson has turned out surprisingly well given what his Dad is like. No role model, but no recidivist either.coneye wrote: ↑09 Apr 2024, 17:49 Shame really that this fella has gone from British hero to British clown , Just has well this skiek fella wants to dabble in boxing for now , because really if it was in the UK who would go , who would trust him to show up and book hotels buy tickets ect ect .

Re: Is Fury stepping over the top rope on May 18th?
Question and I think a valid one considering the Ngannou fight. If this fight goes the distance, can you see any winner other than the Gypsy king - even if Usyk boxes his head off.
