    Ustinov told K2 he saw fear and thought Fury wouldn't chicken out. Guess what..

    Fury should just retire at this point

    I thought Ustinov looked the more submissive of the two, but am pissed that Fury didn't go through with this. He's turning in to Gerry Cooney now, big strong guy who never fights.

    Well I hope Fury didn't believe that. Ustinov was sparring with Chisora. Wlad just very recently started camp for his fight against Pulev. Wlad is still in Florida, hasn't went to Austria yet (which is normal Wlad routine, Florida then Austria). Before starting training, Wlad was traveling around with Hayden, doing as he pleased...not training with Ustinov...some people....:lol:

    But, if Fury is so afraid of Ustinov, which he very well may be...he'll never get in the ring with Wlad, never. Wlad's faster, more mobile, in better shape, better technique, etc... than Ustinov. So if Fury is afraid of Ustinov, forget about ever seeing Fury step in the ring against Wlad.

    Yes, he does. Keep in mind that the second video (wearing shades) was filmed after the first. Fighters don't wear shades at weigh ins unless they can't control the jitters. It's strange that Fury didn't start out wearing shades, but put them on after making eye contact with Ustinov.

    Something must have happened during the first video. Fury started out feeling confident, then something broke within him psychologically.

    I think that Ustinov showed humbleness, but not submission. There's a difference between the two qualities. A big difference.

    I noticed that Ustinov never felt the need to act tough, or to exaggerate his aggression. He felt comfortable being calm and quiet. That impressed me. He showed quiet self-assurance.

    By contrast, Fury -- in the second video -- appears very neurotic. His behavior is defensive, concealing some inner weakness.

    I'm truly disappointed that this fight didn't come off. To me, and others, it was more intriguing than Fury-Chisora, especially after seeing AU come in good shape.

    I also thought Fury was almost funny (in a good way) trying to intimidate Ustinov after the weigh in. AU a man who has been in the military, fought K1 and boxing. Ustinov laughed it off with a who are you kidding attitude.

    On the other hand there are too many amateur psychologists on here, along w/the usual keyboard warriors. Maybe his uncle is sick, maybe Fury is letting conspiracy theories get to him :think

    If he doesn't fight a top HW soon, I'm going to believe he's going the way of Haye and Price :deal Too much drama :emma not enough action.

    I had an English professor in university who did that. A poem would say something like "you are but a flower" and she would go on a 2 hour rant about how the poet clearly was referring to the plight of marxist feminist amputees and their desire to become the first nude astronauts.

    It would be interesting to hear the prof's theory on Fury's loss of ego.

    Lets face the damn facts. Wlad is behind this bull****. Wlad wants no part of Fury so this Chisora pulling out of the fight was all staged. Hell Wlad and Chisora has already been caught in a gay bar. Wlad is trying to destroy Fury so he does not half to fight him. Wlad knows Fury is off in the head and he knows Fury might just be crazy enough to beat him. Wlad is a greedy control freak.

    So Vlad sent his sparring partner Ustinov to be a policeman, to intimidate Fury?

    Thats exactly what Fury wants. Cash out on one big fight. He nearly bagged 5m against Haye.

    Why take the risk of robbing 10 post offices when you can go straight for the bank vault :D
