........especially as Fury sounded less than pin-sharp last night
(lots of clowning/gurning again) and the small Balkan boy was several levels below what Bellew can bring to the ring in terms of power, know-how and belief.

But then you have a rethink and a reload........Fury is not going to risk a thing against Bellew, the preparation gets more serious and the extra stone he still needs to shift does gets shifted and the mobility/agility and workrate comes back.

Scathing comments on 5 Live last night but also a recognition that Fury was blowing a pile of cobwebs away that have been gathering since 2015 and this was a bit of a PR outing and an opportunity to be in a prize fight again.
You don’t work for Frank and Eddie do you mate :OhYes:. Fury is to big for Bellew the fight is another mismatch

On Fury's showing on Saturday Bellew would have beaten him,

Fury looked like a novice and like he had never really done much boxing before, looked nothing like a former World Champion.

Fury is going to have to get really serious if he wants to be champion again, and beat Joshua

On Saturdays performance you have to give Bellew a chance.

I cannot see this fight next for Fury not a chance in hell.

Fury should fight Price next, I'm sure David Price would fancy his chances and after the Saturdays fight it's quite dangerous for Fury to take. It's a 50 - 50 fight for me.

It's a better fight and more competitive than that last effort! allegedly is pushing Fury towards PPV and Bellews last couple have been PPV so it'll be a bit of a task waiting on Hearn and allegedly agreeing on terms so I don't think it'll happen!

He wasn't that bad. The whole thing was just really underwhelming. He'll be fitter next time out and hopefully be up against a better opponent.

Can't see the next one being much better to be honest,Wazza knows there is a fortune to be earned here so he'll not take any risks at all,he's not that type of promoter,plus Tyson looked terrible.

There's only a fortune to be made because fortunately for Fury, people wanna fight a former multi-title champ, as it looks great on your record, especially if they're looking beatable

Sadly, after Saturday, Fury's approval rating with casuals is worse than Nick Clegg after he pissed off all the students

If AJ, Bellew and everyone forgot about Fury, he'd be worth nothing. He needs AJ more than ever

Bellew isn’t signed to Hearn , he’s free to fight where wants

Isn't it a verbal agreement and his a man of his word lol. Can see both teams wanting to stage the fight. Cud well b who digs the deepest.

I don’t think Bellew boxes again. Fury, Usyk and Ward are impossible tasks for him. He’s not daft.

I wasn't bothered or fussed about this before but now as things stand, I'd actually quite like to see this! I'd like it to be on Furys terms though and not a Sky event!,

Sadly not.......might be quite fun to be on the payroll, Eddie's got a Bentley Bentayga I'd like to drive :lol:

I did add the rethink the 'reload and rethink' comment for a reason however - Fury surely gets himself right for Bellew and is simply too big and young for Bellew and mobile as well.

Saturday was primarily about a PR relaunch and just getting in the habit of answering the bell.

Not really sure what I’m reading on here! There is not a cat in hells chance this version of Tyson Fury beats the current version of Tony Bellew!

This whole narrative of Fury being being this special talent has got way out of hand. He’s had one good performance against an under par Vlad who quite frankly would have stunk the place out against my 4 year old girl on that night! He’s not the second coming of Ali FFS!

Let’s not forget this is the same guy who gave himself an uppercut!

I hope to see it come December. Hopefully by then Fury will have had 3 fights (Seferi, August 18th, probably October) before tackling Bellew. Hopefully by then Fury will be 250 pounds. Bellew is the softest way back to the world title, since he's #5 in the world.
