    You would assume give how some are talking about it that this fight is the one others don't want to be up against.

    Maybe, but there's only a finite amount of dollars out there for boxing, maybe the idea is to get in early in the year?

    They want to promote the fight during the superbowl which takes place early February.

    Which begs the question as to why this is so important when pretty much every big fight in American history isn’t in February.

    John Fury gouged a mans eye out in front of his watching son, like his son he talks a lot of contradictory b*ll*cks. Whilst I can tolerate and even like Tyson I have no time for absolute scum of the earth like John Fury and the drivel he talks. "Worst possible physical shape he could be" when he fought Wilder, f**k off you deluded fool.

    Bingo,

    You do not get up in the 12th when hit by a genuine lights out puncher if you are not in excellent shape, The end.

    A daft move IMO and all a bit late in the day.

    To many chefs standing over the broth in my opinion. Sugarhill, Lee, Davidson, Hatton if he's still involved... doesn't make sense to me.

    To be fair he’s only just flew out to camp on Thursday apparently and Ben was dumped before that so at least from Fury’s point of view it weren’t mid camp.

    Tyson Fury has got to do what he feels is best for Tyson Fury, if he feels that’s getting rid of Ben Davison then so be it.

    I wouldn’t be comfortable using a trainer who wasn’t accomplished. Let’s see how Ben Davidson does moving forwards.

    But fan of Andy Lee though. Think he is an excellent addition to the fury camp. Traveller background and being a cousin means he’ll be able to get through to Tyson better and keep him in the straight and narrow. Have a good feeling about Lee being a trainer moving forwards.

    Gotta echo your thoughts about Lee. He's the traveller who didn't have the elite skills but lived the right way and became world class.
