It seems the people have turned against The People's Champ with this latest news of a delay to the fight...
"Turned against"? A handful of Fury haters on here are hardly representative of "the people".

A good indicator of how Haye would have gotten on against Fury (Haye would have stopped him IMO)
It's a shame that Haye pulled out of two fights with Fury.
It's a shame Fury had to pull out against Klitchko ahead of their rematch..

What a combination, hey: "Fury haters" and some very earnest Fury supporters.

I would like to have seen Haye vs Fury. Would have been some atmosphere.

Agreed. It's the same with my casual mates. When Fury beat Wilder the first two times they became firmly behind him but have now they have well and truly had enough to the point that none of them watched the Chisora fight and whenever they mention him it's usually mocking something ridiculous and contradictory he has said.

Yeah, same here. A few I know who know their boxing quite well (I wouldn't class them as casuals), but have just had enough of his schtick.

Yes Mickey, we know. Those people aren't really real people. Certainly not people that The People's Champ refers to. Just other people. Of course Mickey.

My understanding is that Uysk was keen to box Fury in February with a cut off date of the 4th March because of a period of fasting for religious reasons.
But now I also understand that the 4th March date will come and go with no fight, and that they are looking at late March or early April, which would clash with Uysk's period of fasting.
I suppose the logical question is: when will we get the announcement that the fight isn't happening? Before the weekend or begining of next week?

So Usyk is going to pull out? It was ok for practising Christian Tyson to train through Christmas, though? Huge double standards.

I didn’t know Christians fast.
I know Jews and Muslims do. Hindus as well.
