    He just became a Dad for the first time last week. Wlad has been busy with a new baby, and it's the holiday season. I wouldn't expect to hear anything out of Wlad publicly until after the New Year

    The problem is that Wlad just defended against his WBO mandatory last March. So the WBO is not gonna require Wlad to fight Fury before the end of 2015. If this fight happens in summer 2015 both parties will have to want it.

    Thankfully it's a big money fight so neither party will duck and we'll probably get it in 2015.....unless Wlad can get a shot at the WBC titlist first.

    When has he had a potential opponent dangerous enough to want to ditch a belt?

    Fury is an easy opponent for Wlad and GOOD MONEY as Fury brings good UK TV money. Everything speaks in favor of Wlad wanting this fight.

    I'm amazed how many suddenly jumped on the Fury bandwagon. I can remember that not to long ago even the thought of him facing Wlad would be ridiculed. Almost nobody saw him get past 5 against Haye even if that fight went through.

    Now he suddenly is the guy to beat the champ? :lol:
    I really wonder who's next after the fight happened.

    Frank W says Fury will fight a "ranked opponent" due to be announced in the coming days as the prep for this fight. Obviously it's not going to be someone decent so lets look at the WBO rankings.

    although he could always just pick a complete donkey like Cojanu as it's merely a stay busy fight.

    I doubt this fight happens in 2015 unless Fury agrees to all the terms.
    Wlad is WBO super champ, he will fight 2 fat Fury when he feels like it, WBO won't be forcing anything until 2016.
    You don't force a dominant champ and a huge revenue source into fighting some clown this summer.
