    That's if we get peak Fury, and we're not getting that, I'm pretty sure of that.
    Wilder will be down on the press and gans cards though, but probably close enough due to getting tagged regularly that he's not on the judges' cards. They don't want the Joshua vs Wilder moneyfight derailed.
    That said, I also very much doubt it will go to the cards as Fury won't stay upright for 12.

    Has anything come out about them parting ways?? Its obvious Peter's got a problem with Tyson but has anyone cleared it up ?

    Think it’s money related...Peter took a bigger cut than they were happy with from the Klitschko fight...

    Where did you hear that? I'd be very surprised by that.

    It looked quite obvious why they split because it was all played out in public. Tyson walked away from the Klitschko rematch, leaving Peter to take the flak and made several comeback attempts during his absence, again generating media excitement and many questions for Peter, only to disappear and put on a load of weight. I believe Peter just had enough of it. They'd achieved so much together and while Tyson clearly had issues, it was Peter who kept getting left in the crap, answering questions he didn't know the answer to. Peter is a straight shooter in boxing terms, I'm sure he just said "Enough is enough, I'm moving on!"

    On the flip side Tyson had huge respect for Peter, but wasn't a fan of his old school training techniques. Peter is known for killing his fighters in camp. When Tyson trained with Ben, using his modern training and nutrition techniques, I'm sure he found it more manageable.

    I believe Ben will have Tyson a much happier and perhaps fitter fighter than before. He's staying in shape between camps for the first time in his career and there's rumours of him coming in at eighteen stone for Wilder. I just wish he had Peter's wisdom in the corner to go with it.

    Don't think Clinton is involved with Tyson now, his involvement came through Peter Fury.

    Seems I was since John Fury was supporting hughie vs parker...I take it back...

    Can’t find the video I thought it was mentioned in either.

    Isn't Ricky Hatton on the team? Can't see him taking any crap over in the USA, i'd imagine they'll have put up with a lot of stuff during the Mayweather fight week...

    I still don't think this fight happens...

    Only have to look back at the Cunningham fight.

    Peter Fury wasn’t granted a Visa so was unable to travel to the states for the fight. Tyson completely went away from the set game plan that was set out by Peter and traded with Cunningham, causing him to get dropped in the process – big learning curve for him that night.

    John Fury has got about as much chance of entering the US as Jimmy Saville

    Don't forget Frank Warren will be there to look out for Tyson. Frank's a total G. Anyone messes with Tyson they're ending up in a hole in the desert (sorry just love the film Casino).

    That’s a good point tbh, Warren will smoke people out.
