    Yeah if he fights him or someone on Brazeale's level no-one can knock that.

    Breazeale is most likely fighting Wilder next. He's in line for WBC so no way he risks that against Fury and no way would Fury box him. As great as Fury is, the reports all suggest he wants to warm up against BUM CITY opponents. Tbh why not, he's already paid his dues by destroying Wlad, let him sharpen up against bums if he wants to.

    How about David Price? There is old beef between them and it could be marketed as a shot at the lineal Heavyweight championship. Good ticket seller too.

    One of the Irish Heavy's could also be an option (Kennedy/Turner) easy fight and throw in the Irish Heavyweight belt for marketing, also plenty of old names still around like Adamek, Jones, Pianetta all reasonable names to have on the record.

    BJ Flores is also fighting at Heavyweight a well known name from the Bellew fight/Haye connection and relatively low risk opponent.

    I think a few of you are being way too optimistic with opponents!

    He is coming off ovet a 2 year lay-off and has had to lose a shed load of weight.

    It will surely be a soft touch, or a name who is well past it, someone he can look good against.

    BJ Flores would be a good comeback fight but I doubt it will be some one as good !

    Fraud Fury would never face a Dominic Breazeale in a million years. He would be his best opponent other then Wlad. The strategy that Team Fury will use is pretty clear as it’s almost the same route they took previously- fight aload of WBO bums and then pick the carcass of a busted Champ.

    The ‘lineal champ’ will fight these 3 or 4 bums and watch while the real fighting men like AJ and Wilder smash each other up against eachother and other top men In mega fights. He will hope that AJ emerges and he will then ditch Warren and go to sky and call him out. AJ will accept and Fury will attempt to win the fight off the backfoot in a fight which will be so Boring after a great build up that it will destroy box office again and British boxings resurgence whether he wins or loses.

    If he does manage to beat an already smashed up AJ he will retire again for 3 years whist claiming he is the GOAT.

    LOL

    Breazeale is solid but what makes him so special that Fury wouldn't face him?

    No one seen or heard from him during the comeback pressers so guess he’s skint and dumped!! Hats off to him though for sticking with Fury but guess Hughie fight crippled him.

    Thought Tyson was loyal but trainer change and now signing with honest as they come Warren makes me wonder.

    Like Fury cos he brings a lighter side to the game and interest but personally think he should have signed with Hearn. Hope I’m wrong about Mick!

    Has fury faced a top 15 fighter other than Klitschko? I can’t see him doing it first fight back.
