Now he's just positioning himself to earn as much as he can for any future "mega fights". As you say, he isn't a title holder so moving himself up the boards will clearly help force a fight if needed, and help at the table since negotiations will likely be tense and being able to sing may not be enough despite what some here may think.

punchoutsb wrote: ↑16 Jun 2019, 18:14 His resume is better than Wilder and Ruiz and is at the very worst comparable to AJ. I'd say better than all three.

Wilder is fighting Ortiz next so it doesn't make much sense to sign a contract to fight someone who may not even be there.

oogiebe wrote: ↑16 Jun 2019, 18:21 Sorry boss, but Wilder and AJ have better resume's. Fury's is thin. Ruiz doesn't (we can maybe argue he does if he wins the rematch).

punchoutsb wrote: ↑16 Jun 2019, 18:26 Wilder's resume is terrible. Klitschko alone wins that one for Fury. If you're looking at depth of the entire resume then Wilder needs about 40 more fights to catch Fury.

HomicideHenry wrote: ↑16 Jun 2019, 17:18 Bleh.... If he ain't fighting anyone who makes any sort of sense beyond dollars and cents I'm losing interest fast in Fury.

If all he's ever wanted was some sort of fanfare and attention he's not the man I thought he was. That's crybaby bullshit.

Then again.... Only Rocky Marciano didn't avoid anyone. Everyone else picked and chose who they wanted to fight and when and where and for how much.

Still, I'm sorely pissed. What's the sense in being a die-hard fan from the beginning, defending the best man on the planet, if he's going to revert into some sort of player like all the rest.

"You sold out!", is all I keep seeing in my head. Just another damn wannabe celebrity. Real fighters DEMAND facing the best out there. An easy one now and then for show, then it's down to business.

tiny_acres wrote: ↑16 Jun 2019, 19:22 Fury has denied that he is fighting Wilder.
He says no contracts gave been signed

I think Fury is the best and out of the three including him, Wilder and Joshua I'd like Fury to come out on top.

But he's got plenty flaws and weaknesses just like the other two have. He also needs to walk the walk consistently now if he wants to prove he's the best.

ironbeard wrote: ↑16 Jun 2019, 19:43 What you think does not mean fvck all. Fury has not won a thing in his comeback. When he does I will let you know, since your bias is showing.

ironbeard wrote: ↑16 Jun 2019, 19:46 How’s that Furymuncher? Fury fought the least challenging challenger, by light years. His fanboys are already rationalizing the next no hoper.

Tell me what I am missing.
