    I'm sure this is well-trodden ground around here, but there's certain fights I just wouldn't put Fury in if I was his manager. And by that I don't mean Wilder and Joshua, these are 2 he absolutely SHOULD be facing. I mean Parker, and even Whyte.

    Fury is at his best when there's a bulldozer in front of him trying to crush his head. In these situations he comes into his own and turns his opponent's style and philosophy against them, to often brilliant effect.

    The last thing he needs is to be in the ring with other counter-punchers that he'll be expected to walk down sooner or later - because he won't do it. He'll look terrible for 10 of the 12 rounds and need to sneak a decision.

    Stay away from the Whytes and Parkers, nothing good can come of it.

    He’s gotta fight somebody half decent though. He beats everyone outside the top 3 even with an off performance.

    Yeah maybe, but looks bad doing it. He should be thinking 2 more fights.

    Wilder II then Joshua.

    I agree with that. I don’t know what people will say or how they’ll react if he has a stinker with Parker for example.

    Fury said he could only get up for the biggest fights (wilder, AJ) and I believed him. 80 million is a lot to have thrown your way though...

    Lol no one expects Fury to walk anyone down, he dances to his own tune.. He can adapt & think on his feet. He'll find a way with any style.. He's a freak of nature. Brilliant ring IQ & deceptively athletic..

    Whyte is tailor made for him. Parker is more stand offish but again he offers nothing that could legit threaten Fury.

    Silly talk.. He'd whitewash both, stinker or no stinker!

    No chance Whyte could beat him. He's way to slow and spends too much time trying not to trip over himself
