fury will fight again, though its a legit question how postponing will affect these guys and have any impact on motivation, conditioning, etc

usyk is highly disciplined and less volatile, so more of a fury question.

fury gotta watch that eye in the fight too, been sliced open huge multiple times now

dont have any belief that may 18th is at all realistic for fury to be ready to fight .

the cut will take time to heal and that means no sparring - he just wont be at the races

It's the right eye but when you take a selfie it reverses the image, just like you appear reversed looking in a mirror.

Fury being even more obnoxious in his latest vid clip (nice to see he got a better phone camera). I get the impression he is fully aware he is down to his last couple of fans and gone from hero to zero about now.

How will that affect his motivation and discipline? I think he goes to pieces again.

Froch is of the opinion Fury is in serious decline. Nelson said rumours of Fury being dropped in training .. the video of the apparent cut shows Fury being hurt and legs dipping from the uppercut/hook.
Those opinions and rumours appear correct.

Will Fury improve by May or just deteriorate further as his discipline cracks and self doubt increases?

I've often compared Fury to Valuev in their legacy as heavyweight champion .. I now think Fury is below Valuev. Fury is a disgrace to himself and boxing.

He’s probably more or less at the Riddick Bowe (Golata 2) level. Losing the weight but being shot all the same.

Valuev would have been a fairly difficult nights work for Vlad. 12 rounds of reaching and punching up for a change. Physically quite exhausting for a fighter with previous stamina issues. I don’t think Klitschko ever really fancied the match up. Don’t recall it ever really being talked about.

Was a washed up Holyfield better than the washed up Wlad?
Who is better Ruiz or Wilder?

As one of Fury's last standing fans here, you can't deny their résumé are very very comparable.

You are replying to me now???
I put up their comparisons for folk to see, I didn't put an opinion down.

Now more importantly, have we met? Did I do something to upset you?
You definitely seem to have some bad feeling towards me?

I was quoting your comment - so I think its a fairly safe assumption I`m replying to you :TU:

I have no idea if we have ever met. But how does my reply to your Fury comparison to Valuev suggest any bad feeling towards you? its merely identifying the same level of title reign between the two .. no hint of bad feeling towards you or anyone there.

Does anyone really believe they get fined £10million if any of them pull out ?

I bet the Saudis will soon get fed up of pumping millions into boxing and ending up with a shit show like this, their football is not going too well either
