Del has just beaten AJ's last successful defense...

... just before he lost it to Usyk, and 2 fights after getting stopped by the pudding Ruiz.

Fury is making an already bad heavyweight division even worse.

What is bad about it? Fury and Usyk are both undefeated, both travel the world to win belts.... AJ and Wilder hanging in behind and Ruiz, Ortiz, Joyce, Parker, Whyte, Herg etc. Name me the last time the top ten was stronger.

Hey Mick, it's a good job Tyson doesn't have a record like Lennox as you would be in danger of spontaneously jizzing your pants at any given point in the day.

It’s a good top 10. However I don’t think anyone would seriously consider putting Del in there. There’s more depth in the division now - that’s why it’s such a shame the Fury, the likely number 1, is going after a guy he’s beat twice, hammered in the rematch, rather than the Usyk/AJ winner or one of the top other guys.

I have to say really really don't see this match really happening.

Hey Brip, what have I said that is wrong?

Ps what would I jizz to? The knockout losses? Beating a shell of Mike Tyson? Squeezing past Holyfield? Life and death with Mercer? A not sold out homecoming against Botha? A very late notice Vitali sending him to retirement?

He just put a video out on ifl tv saying he’s fighting chisora and Issac Lowe training him for it

This fight is indefensible. Looking forward to what Matt Christie will say about it in Boxing News.

Fury has just reminded me of why I couldn't stand him in the first place.

What a complete piss take of a fight.

It would be very very funny if Del really connected and kayoed him though

I voted draw, which means I couldn't care less, and I've been a fan of Del for over a decade, and a fan of Fury in the Wilder fights only.
Meh...

Chisora is rated 18th by the WBC. I hope the WBC strips Fury for this bullcrap fight.
Wasting the entire divisions time with this

He's already given his verdict. 'Abhorrent'. I agree with him, it's a joke of a defence.

Abomination. They should be made to fight behind closed doors so no one has to watch.

Lewis is light years above Fury, c'mon mick.

lewis is blah, but mick's all over wilder

fck this fight

I get the impression that Fury doesn't totally fancy the Uysk fight. I can see why, as I think Uysk might beat him. Fury vs Chisora III is a who cares match up

Frank said it depends on who wins Usyk-AJ

Wallin is begging for a rematch too.

He just wants a keep in shape fight for easy money , while he waits to see if AJ wins , then he'll challenge , if AJ loses he retires with a couple of etra million paid for by suckers

Bob Arum Says Tyson Fury “NOT” Fighting Derek Chisora Next

Promoter Bob Arum says Tyson Fury is just having fun with the media about his talk of fighting Derek Chisora next. Arum states that the fight that they’re waiting on is the August 20th Anthony Joshua vs. Oleksandr Usyk rematch.

“The truth is that he gets up in the morning, and he figures how he can best stir up s***,” Bob Arum said to Fight Freaks Unite Tyson Fury “He’s having fun.”

When Chisora finds out what Arum said about Fury just trying to upset people, he’s probably going to be made about it. Fury got Chisora excited about a trilogy match between them.

“Of course not,” Arum said. “Nothing. What are we, crazy? Everybody is waiting for the fight to happen a week from Saturday, and then we’ll explore whether it’s feasible to do a fight for the complete unification. He’s having fun, for Christ’s sake! Don’t take it seriously!

And because he gets so many hits on all these (social media) platforms, he has a built-in audience,” said Arum.

Mcguigan, Naz and Hatton did something similar and it didn't work out too well for them.

There again, they were all facing live opponents and not their mate who they had already beaten twice.
