    Fury won't take a fight with Pulev, too risky. Plus Fury has already said he won't fight a Klitschko and that he'll make his own destiny or something along those lines, basically meaning he will go the WBC route.

    If he beats both he'll take the fight, he won't take the fight because he's all talk.

    He refused the fight because of a **** deal that was offered and made up by K2 to run him away.. Different story if he is no.1 mandatory.

    Beats both who?He only has to beat USS to get a fight with Pulev,who is this third mystery guy you speak of him not fighting?
    Sorry you mean Wlad,I'm pretty sure he'd take the fight given the chance,do people really listen to Fury when he sounds off?
    He's promoting himself is all.

    They should of allowed Cunningham fight Pulev for the no.1 spot. Pulev has a better chance of beating Wlad than Fury.

    Might be wrong but can't see this being the case,an eliminator to be the no 1 contender.I think Furys an interesting fighter,doing well and youth on his side,especially at heavy.Will definitely watch the Cunningham fight if its on TV,but due to the size difference think there are better fights for him.If,as Id expect,he wins,then Pulev would be a big jump up.Would have a bet on him against the brothers if the odds were good,so think Tyson could do with 2 or 3 fights before tackling him.Then,IMO,it would be interesting.

    Pulve is too strong, fast and skilled for both of them! I watched Pulev for a long time and he is very good! I loved how he forced Ustinov and Dimitrenko in to a quit job:)

    Just read the other comments again.Regarding Fury not taking fights,I don't think he's unwilling to tackle anybody,at the moment he can pick and choose,in the same way David Price would rather wait for his shot at a brother when confident of victory.For example,in 2years time Im guessing hell be 26.How old will Pulev,or for that matter,David,be?

    Can't see Fury beat Pulev. Not to mention Cunningham's chances if he pulls the upset.

    I really admire the way fury has developed his career. I am always skeptical when a man removes himself from the domestic scene but props to fury his stepping up is quality.

    The fringe contender in Johnson, the ranked contender in Cunningham, the top 4 contender in pulev. Very good career trajectory that justifies him moving past price.

    I guess that means for wlad his next 3 fights are likely to be Jennings, Povetkin and winner of Fury-Pulev. That's not too bad a year really although helenius would have been miles better choice than Jennings (if it is to be him).

    All we need now is vitali to make the haye fight and we can expect a good year ahead :good
