To channel Larry Merchant's personality, there will be more tweets than punches.

Just as good a chance they both fail the pre-fight drug test as there is that a fight would actually take place.

If it happened Fury would win a dull decision.

Fury literally says in the clip that Tarver isn’t his comeback fight. Wtf is the point of this thread?

Apparently all it takes for Wes to make a "What if" matchup poll is for the two fighters names to have come up at some point in the last week for whatever reason.

Should I combine all these Tyson Fury vs TBA threads? Seeing as how nothing is official and it's all speculation. I'll leave it to you guys if you think I should combine 'em or not.

Also consider he's an overwhelming favorite in any of these matchups that have been mentioned the polls don't really seem necessary either.

Wes gets to irritate people and bask in the fact he's getting some attention.

Tyson announced he wants to fight Antonio Tarver that, to me, is thread worthy news.

Tyson maybe coming back against 50 different possible opponents isn't news every time a name gets dropped. It's news when a fight gets signed and announced. Every rumor isn't thread worthy. Actual fight announcements on the other hand are pretty much always thread worthy.

I don't recall Tarver having been in an exciting fight since his first fight with Glen Johnson. That was all the way back in 2004.

Tarver's near 50 years old so aside from giving away several inches and pounds to the MUCH bigger Tyson Fury, he'd also be fighting a man that's 20 years younger...yeah...should be a real awesome contest :roll:

The fight wont be exciting but the storyline Tyson is working toward is.
Briggs and Tarver 2 old well-known Yanks, he has to be making a play of going down the Wilder route...

We even got a Yes from the man that created them. I'd say we can call this case closed
