- Pulled out vs AJ to fight someone he'd already beaten easily.
- Needed a £10mill forfeit clause put into the contract to stop any further pull outs vs Usyk.

He has a reputation as a time waster so little wonder other fighters would preferably take a different career direction.

I've a feeling that Fury will announce his retirement at some point before October and probably retract it. If they do sign for the rematch in October, the fight will be delayed and won't take place until December.

Either way, Fury's just another contender now, just another former champion on the downside of his career.

After your previous “feeling” that Fury deliberately “bladed himself”, do you think that anyone takes you seriously?

Well done to Joshua for avoiding Wilder for 7 years and turning down Fury twice to fight Franklin and Helenius.
Hip! Hip! Hooray!

Aj , Ruiz , Joyce , well doubt the reward was high enough to risk the loss , LOTS OF MONEY REWARD FOR aj BUT STILL A RISK AND HE DON'T NEED THE MONEY

“Only offering Joshua two fights in 9 months shows that Fury was scared of him”.

Get over it you cretin. You are embarrassing yourself even further. You stood by Fury, you were made to look stupid. Take it on the chin

They said Fury was too scared to fight Usyk. Were they not made to look stupid?

If you believe that multi-millionaire Tyson Fury didn’t want to fight Usyk should you not be praising his courageous performance? A lesser man may have spat his gum shield out.
