    Ruiz is the perfect fight for Fury.

    Easy nights work
    Highly ranked by WBC
    Another stick to beat Joshua with.

    I would have been fairly happy to see it in December opposed to Delboy. But not now.

    As you say ticks a lot of boxes for Fury

    Stop being naive... It. Is. Not. Happening.

    Usyk has took the michael with this country. Bellew, AJ, greedy belly...

    The same. Between this and the Conor Benn saga I really can't be arsed with boxing at the moment. It feels like the sport doesn't deserve my support or hard earned cash.

    Only going on what Frank said to Danny Flexen, we've never ever heard any PPV figures for his fights Frank said.

    The Wilder Triology between the US/UK did over 3m buys, last year the highest PPV of the year was Fury vs Dillian beating AJ vs Usyk 2.

    Thought I'd put it down as we've never heard any number before

    Benn and Fury are really flying the flag for British boxing.
    Both pathetic scumbags

    Fury with another foul mouthed rant on social media blaming and calling Usyk a coward. Warren saying Fury could retire again now… do either of them realise how boring Fury’s actually become?

    Just seen that, just an embarrassment and then afterwards he posted the Scarface “bad guy” clip. Deep down he knows he has let the fans down. He’ll go on to box Ngannou in a freak show no doubt.

    They never officially released the Fury Whyte PPV buys so I am guessing the number was very low.

    I am shocked Usyk Chisora did more buys than Joshua Pulev to be honest. That might have also been to do with the price increase, but still very impressive for Usyk Chisora to do more than a million PPV buys during Covid when the PPV numbers had dramatically decreased from 2017/2018 levels.

    Still a bit shocked at fury. Was pretty much the big chance to finish off his career perfectly at the very top level.

    Hes always rated usyk tho....remember seeing clips of fury talking about how good usyk was years ago before he was a rival/opponent.

    Massive black mark for him imo. Needs to fight and beat usyk to go down as good as he probably should in history. Usyks giving away a massive amount of weight/height/length. Home advantage. Probably ring size etc.

    As good as usyk is as a fighter....as a heavyweight...fury losing to him would tarnish his standing in history badly. Ducking him tho is worse.

    Fury owes himself this fight imo. Then joshua to conclude perfectly the story hes written.
