    It is always difficult to believe a habitual liar like Fury. But, if this is indeed true... If he is afraid to get in the ring with Joshua.... A fight that would bring him upwards of 50-100 million dollars.... He is truly a coward, and, deserves to have a questionable historic legacy.

    Is he afraid of the bum bodybuilder he could beat with one hand tied behind back?

    I think this might be his fifth retirement.

    I think he knows that if the Bum bodybuilder lays him out cold, his historical standing will take a massive hit.

    Not sure if he even knows if he's actually retired from boxing.

    Would be very disappointing not to see him fight AJ. A bit of a blatant duck here.

    I thought he retired after the 3rd boring fight with chisora? Hopefully he comes out of retirement to fight him a 4th time …, said no one ever

    Good decision. He’s been declining and the elbow surgeries certainly haven’t helped him.

    Definitely an ATG

    He's never going to get any better , in fact he's only going to get worse. Its over for him.
    Life style , body structure , hits on the head... He was never going to have a long prime.

    I honestly believe he won the 2nd Usyk fight. I will have to rewatch it at some point when I get to it.

    The thing with Fury is there are like 9 different Fury’s living in one head. Did they all agree together to retire? And even if so, if only one of them decides to make a comeback it’s on again.
