    Tyson Fury has today as of 12/10/2017 announced his comeback to professional boxing and a schedule of fights for 2018.

    In 2018 he will be fighting once in April, once in the summer and once at the end of the year.

    The "Mega fight is planned in the summer"

    So will Tyson actually comeback this time, or will he be pictured in a late night Manchester bar rat faced and off his face in 2 weeks time?

    Has the lifting of the "ban" been the driving force for his comeback?

    Hardly a shock, he's been saying that for 2 years now, I don't believe a word he says anymore

    I think we need to stop reacting to the MANY things he says he is doing or going to do on Twitter.

    I believe it when I see him training consistently

    Load of shite!

    He won't shift the weight

    Stated he won't ask for uk license ever again so which country will he fight in? The states? Not with legal issues

    I'll be amazed if it happens

    He'll only fight when his cash is gone imo. Once that is gone he might actually have enough motivation to come back. I don't think next year is the time when he'll come back tho.

    He should fight fat a few tune ups then step it up,

    Fight Schedule. Fury vs Cornish, Fury vs Lewison , Fury vs Price, Fury vs Wilder , Fury Haye, Fury Joshua I think he could win a few of that fights.

    Don't think we will see Fury in the ring until this UKAD business is over, and it shows no sign of even being close.

    Even then I doubt Fury is ever going to be the fighter he was, he has just let himself go too much.

    Hope so.

    He's the only fighter not named Povetkin who beats AJ imo.

    I liked Fury, but he's just getting annoying now..

    Anytime AJ is in the news/going to fight Fury pops back up, because he knows people will start talking of AJ v Fury again and it keeps his name around for a few more months

    For goodness sake :rolleyes:. Guys drop what you're doing because it's time to give Tyson Fury some attention.

    What's the count at now, four promised comeback dates? I've lost track :dunno.
    I don't for one second think it's a coincidence that this has come just as the build up to Joshua/Pulev is heating up, the lunatic can't stand being out of the limelight. Every time he starts to fade back into obscurity he comes out with an expletive laden rant about Joshua/Hearn or a soon to be reneged on comeback date.
    :bump

    He might have a go at world sumo. But he's 100lbs too heavy for world boxing and doesn't have the will / drive / support to fix that.
