    Disappointed but not surprised. Indefensible.

    It was never on with Fury involved.

    Can’t wait for him to clear off from boxing.

    Must have completely missed where this was ever on.

    Assuming he gets past Dubois, there's now rumours of quick turn over for Usyk and an IBF mando against Hrgovic on the Wilder, AJ, Chisora, Ngannou card.

    The WBC heavyweight belt is effectively out of commission. Usyk holds all relevant belts and is de facto undisputed.

    I hope whatever fight they cobble together next for Fury falls completely flat on it's ars3.

    A proper fighting man that doesn't need money, fame or recognition... you're having a laugh.

    I do wonder if this coming out the same day as AJ/Whyte talks have 'resumed' means there's doubts over AJ/Wilder actually happening too.

    What a dreadful year for Heavyweight boxing this could be.

    Credibility shot. Wanted a tune up in December so he could face Usyk early this year. Assuming he announces a fight soon which at this point doesn't look likely it will be October at the earliest he fights and it won't be against Usyk or even anyone credible.

    A total waste of a year all round.

    Time to forget about Fury, he’s a complete diva and an attention seeker. The sooner he retires and frees up the WBC belt the better.

    Hows he going to make Dubois v Fury for undisputed. We have seen nothing from DD to suggest he can mix it with Usyk on a technical level for 12 rounds yet.
    He's beaten some solid opposition and lost to the first world level guy he faced.
    I enjoy Furys fights but this not making any fights then calling everyone out is boring beyond belief. Give the belt up and call it a day after a solid career if he can't be arsed boxing anymore.

    It will probably be a UFC guy.

    Whoever it is it will be a massive letdown.
    Fury is a total bellend. I hope he gets sparked out in his next cherry picked bum fight

    If Dubois wasn't black I'd swear he was Frank's secret love child. He still thinks Dubois is amazing.

    Frank needs to take his rose tinted glasses off and see that Dubois has a big punch but nothing else.

    He cannot take a shot at all and should have been disqualified in his last fight (against a bum) for diving to his knee every time he saw a punch coming his way.

    Want to see people giving the criticism to Frank Warren for staging such a fight like Hearn received previously. Imagine if Joshua fought a UFC guy as current World Champion.
