    No it's just the OP making a suggestion.
    In reality Fury will probably fight Matt Skelton. They can't bring in a decent fighter on short notice :-(

    I can't stand Fury as a person or fighter but i voted Fury decision.

    Chagaev is shot to **** and needs to hang them up

    fury still has time on his side, and he's making good money in the u.k. why take too big a step, too soon? chagaev may be too much of a step up, and even if he were to beat chagaev, once you step up like that there's really no turning back without being intensely criticized, not that I think he cares. slow and steady is probably the better move. I think he should gauge himself against someone in his height range who isn't a huge threat soon.

    Chagaev is not even half the fighter he once was, I'd favour Fury in a tough fight.

    These fools that keep bringing up Chagaev being shot clearly haven't watched his last two fights.

    Is he fat? Yes. Shot? No. There's a good reason no top prospect has gone after Chagaev yet.
