As entertaining as Fury can be, I think I have grown a bit tired of his nonsense now. I've always had the upmost respect for him as a boxer, but I can't shake the feeling that he is not keen for the real tests in his division. I think, for most people, there is a bit of an asterisk against his record.

Equally, you can't force someone to take on the best, if they/their team, don't fancy it.

I'd rather they just do what they do and announce a fight once it's confirmed..

Leave us fans out of it.

258 managed Buatsi and Joshua lose their pens.
The Eddie groupies on here blame the Furys.

Where are getting 5pm from? That video is from last week.

The two sides haven't agreed a deal. With all due respect, anyone issuing blame on a boxing forum doesn't know what they're talking about.

I think Tyson will genuinely fight anyone and everyone. You don’t fight Wilder 6 months after being in slob shape if that wasn’t the case.

I just think it’s his immaturity at play here and lack of patience.

Cue more videos of him calling AJ a pussy and the promoters blaming each other for it not happening. Ultimately though Tyson is the guy who’s been calling it off and saying he’s fighting other people which can’t have helped things.

He won't fight Joyce. Same promoter, same tv network and Fury says Joyce is not ready. He's ducking JJJ like he ducked David Price.

I wouldn't be surprised if DAZN squashed it from the off, Hearn obviously cant say that in public. They paid him a fortune to sign with them, his last fight was on Sky which he lost. This fight would be on BT with maybe a couple of thousand paying for it via DAZN. Can't see them being happy with that. Then again the Furys talk bollox all day long, so who knows what's happened.

Obviously, none of us are party to negotiations but one only has to look at past negotiations and the list of Fury opponent's, and a pattern emerges. I think that's why people on Forum's don't have much confidence in Fury fighting Uysk/Joshua or Joyce.

Plus 3 losses from 5 would have become 4 from 6.

You and maverick = people.
Other people note that Usyk could have had the fight if he wanted it in a few weeks.

I said a few posts ago that I think Fury will fight anyone and isn’t afraid of anyone?!

I just think he acts like a child and throws his toys out the pram when people don’t do what he says they should.

Shouldn't Joshua at least be in camp for the fight he really "wanted"?

Apologies pal.
Just the guy with the username of the boxer that Joshua calls a "clown".

Big Doofus, why did Fury retire in April instead of arranging another contest? As a fan, if Fury doesn't box Uysk, Joshua, Joyce or Ruiz Jnr, would you be happy with that? Does Fury vs Chisora III get your juices flowing?

I think the wider public are getting bored now. The time wasting act has gone a bit stale. A talented fighter no doubt, and unbelievable courage to get off the floor against Wilder in fights 1 and 3 ( especially in the 12th of the first fight), but his opponent list is a bit lacking. A pity.

Personally, I'd rather he retire with his health in tact and lots of money with a good career under his belt, rather than come back if he is not quite sure about it.

this game playing crap is so tiresome and frankly ridiculous .
in what other walk of life where people get paid millions for their work would this be tolerated ( obviously in the UK Govt it would be OK )

I blame Fury and really think he never actually wanted the fight just tried to kick AJ when he was down in the process of trying to stay relevant and get some PR for his next actual fight against whoever it is going to be :
Charr or Chisora are both in the " keep busy " level and not proper title challenges .

They will fight eventually is my guess.

My guess is they never fight, or if they do, it's when they are both well and truly past their sell by date.

Hopefully Tyson’s next fight is a financial disaster

Yeah. Tyson will no doubt fight someone in their prime. Like Chisora. Or Charr.

They're both 2-3 in their last 5 and hold wins over Pulev. Not a lot between them to be fair.
