Idiots will remember him that way

Why wouldn't everybody? His biggest claim to fame is he happened to be in the ring the night a better fighter refused to fight back, and he got a title handed to him (a title which he then turned around and gave up without a fight as well). He's lucky more than talented.

This. He has far too many questions left unanswered to his career. If he never comes back he will just be remembered as lucky, not legendary.

OMG. He must be 22st plus. He will never be back.

He may never come back, but I don't agree with the reasoning. Foreman beefed up to 320 and came back at much older. Fury can take the weight off. I think the issues are if he can clear up his mental problems and put down the drink and drugs. But those are big IFs. Sorry, I don't know how much 22 stone is. Ok, I got off my lazy ass and it's multiply by 14? 308?

308 is not that ridiculous for a dude his size.

Hasn't Fury gone over 22 stone before?

Fury suffered a mental letdown like Foreman. For several years Foreman made excuses for the Young loss. It was tough. About 5 years after he quit he started talking about a comeback. After 10 years his kid said, "Are you going to make a comeback or are you just talking sh!t again?" ... He got really angry and told a promoter to make a fight.. "Are you in shape?" ... "Hell no I'm not in shape. Find me an opponent where I don't have to be in shape. Just get me out there. I want to get started like any 4-round fighter. Just line me up so I'm forced to train. I don't give a damn what people say, I just want to get going."

Fury shouldn't let it go 10 years... He doesn't have as much experience and hasn't made that much money.. He has to stop feeling sorry for himself and stop worrying about haters and everything people say.. He's an emotional basket-case.. He says he doesn't care, but he does.. You have to be cold blooded."

Wasn't Foreman also broke?

Fury is a comedian, a funny guy. Funny thing about a lot of comedians - most if not all of the really good ones - they are crying on the inside.
