He looks very slim compared to what he looked like before the Usyk rematch.

Looks like he’s posing for the new Matalan catalogue.

And it's not like he is busy!

aj fought much more recently than fury did, it's hardly like fury going out vs chisora makes him some activity monster

He should just bite their noses off, instinctively of course, as any honest, decent gangster would.

So he should or shouldn't fight?

For me much better fighting someone than waiting for the big fights.

he shouldnt fight chisora yet again, no, nor was chisora the only guy in the world he could've fought

after already trying to polish that turd youre now trying to give him credit like he's some active dude because he's fighting december and aj isnt, but fury last fought 8 months ago. aj last fought 2 months ago, it's a different situation..

I'm not trying to polish anything, no one is excited about this fight but you wouldn't be much more excited about the other available options.

Better that he has a run out while waiting for a big fight next year

i certainly would be much more excited about other opponents, i already listed several of them. id rather watch him fight drying paint than chisora again. fury could have had even more options if he hadnt already honed in on chisora months ago

chisora vs not fighting at all is a false dichotomy, and fury getting props in this context is wack. so his first fight in 8 months will be vs a guy he's beaten twice, last time in a dreadful fight, in a fight no one was calling for. amazing.

iF i was AJ i would be taking the ofensive instead of waiting for Fury to offer and then put obstacles and excuses in the way , i think i would definetly go on the offensive ,, tell al my sponsors , whoever needs to be told ,, get done what you have to do , get ready for it because , June i'm fighting FURY ,, sing loud and clear from the rooftops , Fury can haver his warm up in dec , ,, he can have has many has he wants before march , but come June , i,m ready ,, and waiting , everything is organized no distractions no obstacles were ready , in June
Then send Fury publicly a contract clearly stating 60-40 for Fury Lions share , to be signed by him , with him putting in whatever date he wants in June , and whats more i would make an unprecedented move and do it all publicly
'
Then wonder what excuse wil he give now,,, But notied on facebook Fury giving big raps to Huni ,, guess he'll be Furys next opponent ,, stating the big stiff bodybuilder don't want it ,, Uskys only a middleweight so irrelevant ,, so i'm gonna give Huni a go he's ready .

Oh and for those who don't know who Huni is , he's a pretty good ameteur but in the pro's not big enough and does'nt hit hard enough and is'nt even ready for Chisora yet

If TBA is Chisora, I'm going to seriously loose my sh*t with boxing

Boxing is becoming an exclusive club with all these rematches and trilogies. Boring as shit.

No, but then I couldn't imagine Fury fighting Chisora for a third time either

Depends if Del Boy’s coming off a big win….

" ,, tell al my sponsors , whoever needs to be told ,, get done what you have to do , "

He had chance to do this for 3 December. Why wait until June?

The longer a comeback fight is delayed makes me think he won't fight again, surely he's made enough money not to fight again ? He won't be top of the pile whilst Usyk and Fury are there and if he wins a lesser title what is the point ?

I watched a couple of interviews last night with AJ. In both of them he kept on walking off and chatting to other people before returning to the Interviewer. Very odd.

There has been a lot of 'he said', 'she said' re why the Fury vs Joshua fight didn't happen. However, having seen these interviews, and seeing AJ's erratic behaviour immediately after the Uysk fight, I think it is a good thing that he is not boxing anyone right now, let alone Fury.

Poor bloke, he looks very unsettled. I do wonder if he should pack it in. Its a dangerous sport, and if he goes into future bouts half baked, mentally speaking, then he could get hurt.

Fundamentally, he seems like a good guy, but now might be a good time to retire, and provide commentary instead, and enjoy his hard earned wealth.

Similarly, Fury seems a bit up and down of late, and I do wonder if it might be best if he retires as well, if he is not as serious about the sport as he used to be.

Certainly, for Joshua, I hope he is already legacy planning and getting things in place for post competition life. At the moment, I genuinely have some concerns for him.

Anytime Joshua or Hearn say AJ 's gonna be active I know their full of it

I agree with most of this
Stevie Wonder could see he didn't want the Fury fight but I've had pelters on here for pointing it out. He won't go near Wilder either.

It’ll be a disaster if Fury takes it easy on his mate and wins a 8/4 or 9/3 in complete 2nd gear like Usyk did against Chis because then Hearn will justify Chis next for AJ.

“Last 4 fights… beat Pulev and Parker… lost a close 2nd fight to Parker… went the distance with the new Kronk destroyer in Fury… and WON rounds”.
