This guy has got to be the biggest waste of talent I've ever seen. To win the heavyweight championship and get so lazy and complacent, that he can't even defend the belt and get stripped, It's almost unbelieveable. Eventually we will see his sorry ass and the ring, because he's going to be broke and have no choice. I just can't wait til he fights a legit fighter. I really want to see him get his ass kicked! Not because he's British either, Joshua is a class act, and Lennox Lewis truly an ATG.
I was actually quite supportive of him when he won the title from the long standing champion. I thought that with his particular brand of moxie,...his bizarre personality and the ring smarts he displayed vs Wlad, that he would be a plus for boxing. Boy was i wrong....well, I was right about the "bizarre personality" bit. All you just said about him I subscribe to 100%.
He announced yesterday he will not apply for a BBBOC licence. click on reply to view. This content is protected
It's the thing that manager have said about boxers forever; give them fame and fortune. Then, see what problems you have.
Fury might well fight again. I don't think that there is anything else much that he is good at. However I am going to go on record right now, as saying that he will never again be as good as he was in the Klitschko fight. Basically he is going to be boxing's greatest enigma. A guy who beat nobody of note before he fought for the title, dethroned the best heavyweight of his generation, then disappeared into obscurity. The sorry narrative is already as good as written.
I think Dwyer speculated that Fury might have untreated mental health issues well before the Klitschko fight.
A great talent. If he can make it 13 more months, he will match Dempsey's great championship retirement!
At least Dempsey formally announced his retirement, so that another champion could have been crowned, if there had been the political will to do it!
