    We will know who the **** house is if it goes to purse bids. If anyone refuses to fight then they’re a shithouse no matter what excuse they come with.

    to be fair Tyson has proved he is no shithouse by fighting Wilder the first time who can blame him for taking the ESPN money. I dont see AJ fighting either so he is just a big a shithouse. Boxing politics sucks but AJ - Mathcroom > Fury ESPN

    We will see when purse bids happen on Tuesday or if someone pulls out beforehand. Maybe nobody does and they’ll both deserve respect.

    Fury isn't bidding, so you can only apportion blame to his handlers Frank and ESPN.

    He can instruct them what to do. ESPN might win the purse bid. No point making excuses at the minute. If they don’t then Fury will have to fight on a different platform. If he doesn’t then...

    Apparently Fury has turned down 50/50 with Wilder

    Feels like the fight is less and less likely to happen

    Fury turned down 50/50 split of (?) with Wilder but accepted £80million (guaranteed) with ESPN.

    Lets be transparent here.

    Oh right, care to post a source? Multiple international news sources must be misinformed.

    The problem with you is that you’re totally one-eyed. You clearly don’t like Fury, which is fine. The issue is that you can’t bring yourself to say ANYTHING positive about him.

    I don’t like Joshua, but he’s clearly a fantastic fighter and him vs Fury is close in my opinion.

    This forum is far more interesting if people are objective rather than just one-eyed and biased.

    So Tony as a fellow fan of the sport who would you say are your top 5 favourite fighters? Obviously as a follower of the sport I'd also love to know what kind of fighting styles you like, you've mentioned you find Tyson Fury ''boring'' do you enjoy watching other boxers (who can properly box) such as Usyk or Lomachenko or do you prefer the style of a swarmer or a slugger?
