    Shape and condition of his life against Klitschko. Very hungry, mentally taken to the edge to get into the right mindset. Mental discipline for 12 rounds to be one step ahead of Klitschko.
    Gets the win. Not motivated to go through all of that again, enough to get the win in the rematch. Relinquishes belts.

    Inactivity + coke/fast food lifestyle will mean that future performances will not be held so much against him, and that the mythical 'prime Fury' will always remain king. Fury can't personally let go of the self-image he conjured when he beat Wlad so he's 'storing it' safely.

    Tyson Fury will look pretty shoddy in a victory against a random HW and mediocre against a upper-mid level HW and then he'll be in excellent shape for the AJ fight but people would've written him off there.

    Both 'past prime' and 'mythical prime' versions of Fury's stock rises when he has one good performance against one of the very best HW's. He will surely be mentally and physically ready for a superfight with AJ as a result of the 'groundwork' he set for himself being this 'past prime' version of himself.

    It's not easy for a guy with Fury's mental makeup, there's a lot that goes in on his head that just swarms his brain. That's why his career has taken up this pattern.

    Honestly I view Fury as basically having lost to Klitschko considering the circumstances. Yes he won the fight. But he also postponed the rematch twice because he's a lazy slob. He is under PED suspicion. If they guy comes back I could see him getting smoked by a very average fighter.

    I too believe he sabotaged himself, he thought this through once he was busted for PEDs he needed the heat elsewhere. Now when he comes back there's no pressure. He BARELY did a tiny less TERRIBLE than a mentally shattered wlad did, they both lost that night. There's NO winner that night

    He's truly GARBAGE for a hw that's way over rated on here. He would get utterly smashed by wlad in a rematch, Aj No contest , Parker UD AND dw lays him OUT mid rounds. Whyte would be a great, very tough comeback fight for him, 50/50 fight.

    ohhh come on, chisora almost stopped whyte about 5times with wild left hooks, he pushed dillian very close. chisora was shut out and quit, he didnt land a punch on fury.

    chisora & whyte are euro levels, depending how motivated they are.

    whyte struggled to stop a croatian cruiserweight, didnt look impressive against punchbag dave allen.

    fury would murder whyte.

    ps: stop trolling

    People forget he's still young and not even in his prime, age wise. He can lose weight easily and be back in boxing, successfully. There's only Joshua who could beat him, 50/50 fight.

    NONSENSE. Wlad cancelled on Fury himself how many times due to injury?

    Fury is the king. Bow down. All of YOU. NO WILDERs. NO JOSHUA'S. TYSON IS THE KING.

    If you think abit of cocaine on the side and blowing up horribly out of weight will stop him you are HORRIBLY WRONG. He could beat half of these fools right now at 300 pounds if he wanted to.

    Since turning 25 bieng obese has been part of life for Tyson Fury. You think he wasn't out of shape the day he got told he would get to face Wlad? FINALLY? after years of waiting? Then he trained like a mule to destroy the man and guess what...the fight got cancelled back into a depression but still ready to do the job. He spent a year of his life focussed on training and bieng ready to beat a single man in a boxing ring. You know what that's like for a heavyweight who gains weight overnight if he doesn't train? But still he turned up to a cheating Wlad and still did a job on him.

    When this man is back in shape at the end of summer you will all be bowing down as if jesus himself had returned from the heavens..and by that time either Wlad, AJ or Wilder should be willing to fight him at the end of the year if they don't duck him.

    Chisora fought the fight of his life vs white, put in a good effort but lost. You go off meaningless b.s. to determine future outcomes. Fury is over 300lbs, hasn't fought since that horrific wlad fight and has gone through a bunch of b.s. recently. Mentally he'll be in bad shape. That's why I stated whyte would be a great comeback fight. He'll get good rounds in and not be in absolute night ending danger like against the true top hw's

    And that would be a 50/50 fight. What I'll guarantee is fury will never beat Aj, Dw, Parker or even wlad in a rematch.

    The thermos is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

    It keeps things hot and it keeps things cold ... but how does it know?

    Thermos > sliced bread > Fury

    Well I'm glad someone is trying to understand the 2fast fury ways. Seems he has an addictive personality, which is a gift and a curse.

    I think Peter fury said Tyson needs to stop hanging out with people who support his drug abuse. Insiders know Tyson Fury has ton LOADS of recreational drugs even while he was still boxing.

    Tyson Fury should stop ducking Canelo at 165 catchweight.
