Tysons been beaten handily by Big McDermott and a debutant, hasn't he? Should have been stopped by Wallin and barely won a round against Usyk... go look at a photo of him from 2016-17 and tell me any heavyweight who's put their body through more.

He only out landed Usyk in one round of the rematch, so you nailed that one.

Are they using the old Olympic style amateur scoring now?

No, you said Fury barely won a round, I was just providing some evidence to back up your statement.

Do you think if he had lived right and not messed about with the retirements that he'd have beaten Usyk comfortably? It's unbelievable to have run him so close in the first one with his past, Usyk has hardly any miles on the clock.

I don't think it's unbelievable. Like every other boxer, Fury chooses how he trains and ultimately the shape he walks into the ring in. I think a lot of his 'retirements' are to avoid further drug tests. This is a guy that felt the need to cheat when fighting Christian Hammer.

Apparently Johnny Fisher has been offered a load of money to appear on the undercard.

I did say he's the only Londoner who can boost an undercard... maybe some Albanian Londoners as well.

stujones wrote: ↑17 Feb 2026, 11:21 So Fury is training alone, plugged netflix hundreds of time, plugging his future documentary. He looks and sounds like he is more interested in doing this for the TV show. If Mak is not also in "exhibition" mode and if he is actually any good - he might be worth a punt.

Fury doesn't seem to be taking it seriously.

If the Footage I've seen of him on the heavy bag is anything to go by, he looks fatter than ever (in fighting trim)
The love handles are massive, he really doesn't live the life.
Mind you, he thought he was retired yet again.

John Fury is minced off his kipper.

The guy is so desperate for attention it's embarrassing. He tries to make it all about him.

Threatening people, challenging to fights then his standard retraction 12 hours later "I'll not give them a payday off my name"

Now he's done a new 180 and wants to fight Froch on the undercard

It's just rinse and repeat with this guy.

I've no doubt he can fight but at some point he needs to back it up.

Is he on the bugle or the drink? He looked manic at that presser

He's just a twat

Basicly the guy first and foremost is just a fooking idiot of the highest degree , secondly he's a big strong guy and a complete arsehole of a bully which makes him dangerous , thirdly he's a coward he picks his mark ,

When his mouth runs away with himself he comes up against someone not scared of him ex EGAN , fROCH , THE COWARD IN HIM COMES OUT WITH THERE NOT GETTING A PAYDAY OUT OF ME , This nonsence with Froch he came out with when he knew where Froch was and knew he was about to telecast ,, he challenges Froch wants it on the undercard , Frock accepts most will say good looking forwrd to it , But has per most bullys he's already give himself the excuse , with the get netflix to ring me about the money , thats what its all about , Bollocks thats his ready made excuse , they did'nt offer enough money , did'nt want paying for sticking the nut on a SMALLER younger fella did he .

It really is about time the Bbbc step in and put a stop to this idiot and the promoters make there security do there job and throw him out , he's not even funny any more just a big bully who keeps getting away with it , next one he headbutts or manhandles needs to call the police and get him arrested , watch him cry in the dock again

If Froch fights him he may need to put safety goggles on, old Johns partial to a bit of eye gouging up close.

Not a feather duster man ?

The fight will never come off. Won't get licenced and neither have a licence to fight anyway.

Is this all just one big piss take to generate sales and Netflix subscriptions

I'd much rather watch John Fury vs Froch than Tyson Fury vs anyone tbh.

Fury Sr knows all about the fight game, he knows there is zero chance he gets licenced to fight on any BBBofC fight card, he'd never pass a medical.

This is all just total egomaniacal fantasy.

He also knows Froch would absolutely batter him if they fought either in the ring or the cobbles.

Not to be missed!!

Fisher senior could eat everybody's food off the table and probably polish off big john and Tyson for desert.

I doubt they would even licence Froch, who looks like he's kept in decent shape, but let's face it, at 48, he would be blowing our of his arse after three rounds.

Big John's corner would need to have a table for doing lines off and a defibrilator and oxygen mask between rounds.

Now there's something I'd watch.

Speaking of Big John, where's Big Doofus these days?

I can't believe Big John had a go at his twin bro Buncey
Remember this cracker?

He eats worms?

Gotta feel sorry for Buncey after Doofus went after him. Listening to his latest BBC Podcast and he's as flat as a pancake.
Obviously the bullying got to him

John's never dealt with being overshadowed by his son. The man needs therapy, not a fight.

Therapy won’t work - no chance. The only way he shuts up is if he gets a hiding and is shown up.

Must be embarrassing for his kids.

Also, if he’s like that in public what’s he like behind closed doors
