    I must admit I cant easily give Fury a pass for inactivity - its in his own hands surely
    He could have elected to fight - the only possible excuse could be the arbitration prevented it
    Also I seem to recall a lot of his fans on this forum crowing about him not needing tune-ups and that he would handle AJ easily - can we assume that can now be put to bed?
    Re AJ 'not calling him out' what I heard was 'I dont care who I fight I just want the belt' - thats not hesitant to my mind - quite the opposite but each to his own
    I just hope that either the fight gets made or the whole bs is shelved and we can all move on
    Its a 50/50 fight whichever way you look at it and I hope it happens - but if not hey-ho

    It would be a travesty. Undisputed fight between two Brits it just has to happen (not sure it will mind).

    Have to admit its worrying that on the same day interviews came out from both boxers and neither sounded like the fight was close to being made.

    i said it a while ago, there's a strong chance this Fury/Joshua fight will be strung out for 4 or 5 years like they did with Mayweather-Pacquiao.
    The only thing that makes me hopeful that it will happen sooner rather than later, is the coronavirus pandemic, has made them realize that their careers are short and it's too risky to wait around for so long.
    Ironically, if they choose to string it out for the 4 or 5 years, they will use the pandemic as their excuse why it can't be made this year !

    I'm sure Fury is quaking in his boots over a chinny weightlifter who got trashed and made to quit by a morbidly obese Mexican midget. After he flattens Femi, haters like you will be touting another bum to "expose" him but that's difficult when you're dealing with an ATG titan.

    How am I defending him? By adressing the quality of your posts?

    More chin than brains.

    If you are mentally challenged then please accept my apology because at this point I'm not entirely sure..

    Arum and Hearn at each other’s throats and Fury coming out with a million excuses. Fight won’t happen.

    I can say this much, you are not mentally challenging to me at all. So I will just let you be at this point. Mark Twain said it best when he said "
    “Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.” So with that, I will let you be. Idiot

    At first I thought that you weren't the sharpest tool in the shed, then I thought maybe your chin made you do it? Now I realise you're one clown short of a circus, you really aren't all there.
