Fury's comeback fight was really an exhibition. At least his sparring partner/opponent didn't disgrace himself like David Haye's two comeback oponents did by pretending to get knocked out.

Fury did duck Ustinov. He was scheduled to fight him and they even held the presser and then Fury stood him up, because his uncle or whatever he was passed away. But now Ust has only fought twice in 2 1/2 years. Should be a real fight though and an interesting one with two goliaths. The script, of course, says Fury wins easily, but it could be interesting.

Fury did not duck Ustinov; he dropped out the fight because his wife had a miscarriage. There are some things more important than boxing.

Is was the death of his uncle. If I recall correctly.

Fury considering another 40+ opponent?

Ustinov might be too tough at this stage. Unlike Seferi, he can pretty much see eyeball to eyeball with Fury.

And Ustinov is a sellable opponent. He actually challenged for that coveted WBA regular title. He's practically a contender.

Since Fury is agreeing to fight on the Frampton undercard, his opponent figures to be much weaker than Ustinov.

Maybe another chap on the level of Seferi.

Other fighters have fought right after personal tragedies. As they say, the show must go on. At least the Ustinov fight should have been rescheduled but it wasn't. Couldn't Ustinov have sued for breach of contract? To me it looks like Ustinov got screwed. Also, this is the first I've heard of the miscarriage excuse. They were saying everyplace that it was because he was very close to his dying uncle. And I'm a guy who likes Tyson Fury!

Some guys fight through personal tragedies and others don't. I would never blame a fighter for not fighting after losing a baby. As I said, some things are more important than boxing. Ustinov wasn't rescheduled because he was a late replacement for Chisora--after Fury pulled out they just rescheduled Chisora for four or five months later.

Be decent to get more rust off. If he can't beat Ustinov soon he's finished anyway.

I think he should have a couple of real fight first.

Fury and Ustinov was cancelled the morning of the fight if I recall correctly. They’d weighed in, faced off , the works

I didn’t know about the miscarriage. Story at the time was his uncle was ill .

It’d be a good second comeback fight, but I expect another stiff for Fury in his next outing

Well, that’s not how I remembered it. But your article does reference the below. I reckon Fury was coked up the night before and didn’t fancy it.

Yes, his uncle did pass away about three months after the fact. Everyone knows his uncle was hospitalized right before the fight; his wife also had a miscarriage around the same time. They just weren't blowing horns about it.

That sounds like it's a hell of a lot closer to the truth than those other ever changing excuses. Ustinov would have put a lot of time and money into prepping for that big fight. Didn't they have a contract? Don't they have any sheister lawyers in White Russia, like for breach of contract?

Ustinov took the fight on a weeks notice. Miscarriages happen, I'm not really sure what's so unbelievable about it...

I can see this happening.

Judging by the standard of Seferi, this would be step-up, but given Ustinov's age & inactivity, he shouldn't present too much of a risk.

Also, Ustinov is actually a heavyweight too, which helps.
