His future involves disappearing from any rankings while occasionally partaking in novelty fights.

I can think of two on here who will disagree. Once they've watched Home With The Fury's for the 12th time I'm sure they'll be here to comment

He will slip even further if he keeps fighting kick boxers.

It's all very sad.
I'd have Fury to to beat Joshua handily with limited amounts of danger. I think he's talented enough to decision Usyk in a fairly uneventful affair. Essentially he's turned his back on blessed boxing genetics In favour of preserving his 0 record. It's quite pitiful for a self proclaimed fighting man to not want to fight 'the man' akin to heyday Ron Jeremy opting to be bummed instead of bumming the #1 porn queen of that time.

Damn. John Holmes actually took that route for money…. Is Tyson Fury the boxing equivalent of John Holmes?

Apparently he does have a rather too keen interest in Joshua's penis; he does like mentioning sausage a lot too .. so it's hard to say. The whole having 17 kids could be a typical distraction/cover for his sausage craving desires
I think it's refreshing to see his blatant ducks being recognised and those taking chances receiving their recognition.

Will Luke get any BoxRec points for the Ngannou fight?

I wonder why Fury-Ngannou won't appear on Luke's record, but Mayweather-McGregor did.

Pound for pound number 1, Terence Crawford, thinks Fury's negotiation tactics were the reason for Fury vs Uysk not happening:

For someone who claims to be bored of Tyson Fury, you don’t half type a lot of words about Tyson Fury.

I think by now, everyone with even a hint of common sense, knows that Fury did all that he could to get out of that fight. It's very obvious.

Didn't Usyk agree his part of the Saudi deal with the Arabians? Or do I have that wrong?

It would appear that he generally agreed to everything put forward to get the fight done, including a 70/30 split on Fury's home patch at Wembley for the original date in April. The obstacles and demands kept on getting put in his way though...

When was the last time Fury retired?

Because they aren’t asking anyone to sanction it.
So no organization is overseeing this?
No genuine boxing authority as I understand it.

Boxing News have updated their rankings and consider Uysk to be the number 1 Heavyweight in the World, and the real Heavyweight Champion.
Fury is at number 2.

If the Ngannou fight is an exhibition I.E. doesn’t count on the records, then Fury could well be out of the rankings by the end of the year all together due to being inactive and not having a pro boxing fight confirmed.

A big, soft cock? After the Usyk duck it could be considered a fair assesment of Fury.

Usyk is also The Ring #1, The Transnational Boxing Board #1 and has three of the four major belts.
