Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder- October 9th. Does it happen? Predictions if it does?

AJ fans love worshipping alphabet titles. You're the kind of guy who recognised Charles Martin as a legitimate world champion.

When AJ wins a Ring Magazine belt, give me a shout.

 

So, you downplay belts, then bring up a meaningless one?? Ok. No debating with you here. You win. But while you are at it, can you show me a picture of the lineal title? It never seems to show up when I Google it...

 

Are you saying the ring belt is meaningless? Wait what?

 

Reread what I wrote. You crap on titles, then you bring up a title that is made from a magazine. You are contradicting yourself. Charles Martin was a means to an end. But I am sure you think Wallin, Seferi and many of Fury's opponents were legit don't you? And you probably think Fury really had Covid and beat it in 3 days too huh?

 

You're going off on a tangent.

Neither man has an incredible record, but Fury is the man who has the higher level wins, and has actually boxed away from home and won. You bring up names from Fury's record as if Molina, Breazeale, Takam and co. are any better than Wallin. Oh wait, Wallin actually beat Breazeale. Oops.

 

Was hilarious when they fought, all the fanboys stayed up late to watch in hope of getting 1 up haha.

 

I had money on Fury stopping Wilder in rounds 7 or 8 and I've been a fan of Fury but I'm getting bored of his crap in truth. I hope Wilder sparks him out or I fear Fury will hold the WBC belt hostage for a further 18 months perhaps fighting an unknown along the line before calling it a day . If Wilder does win I don't think we need worry about a 4th fight as I think Fury would retire citing health reasons both mental and physical and become a pundit banging on until he's 55 about how he could come back and clear out the division with his dad reiterating the same. I'll say yes it happens and I'll stick with my wishes and go for a shock Wilder victory by ko.

 

“I bought a brand-new Ferrari convertible in the summer of 2016, and I was in it and I was on this strip of the highway where I am. At the bottom of about a five-mile strip there’s a massive bridge that crosses the motorway. I got the car up to about 190mph and I was headed towards that bridge.

“I didn’t care what no-one was thinking, I didn’t care about hurting my family, friends, anybody. I didn’t care about nothing, I just wanted to die so bad, I gave up on life. And just as I was heading towards that bridge at 190mph in this Ferrari – it would have crushed like a Coke can if I’d have hit it – I heard a voice saying: 'No, don’t do this Tyson… Think about your kids, think about your family and your little boys and girls growing up with no father and everyone saying your dad was a weak man, he left you and he took the easy way out because he couldn’t do anything about it.

“Before I turned into the bridge I pulled onto the motorway and I was shaking. I pulled over and I was all nervous and I didn’t know what to do and I was so afraid. And I thought that I’ll never ever try or think about taking my life ever again.”


Does anyone believe this happened or do you think he thought about it but knew that in an interview it wasn't going to cut it so he said he did it instead? I can't believe a word the man says. Apparently he has Bipolar, I've never seen him mention anything about the medication he's on to deal with it and how it affects him on a daily basis. If he has what he says he has and has had all of those intense thoughts and feelings going on in his head for as long as he says he has he's not going to be able to manage his Bipolar without medication, a doctor would strongly advise that he takes it. This whole coming out parade with his mental health has got out of hand, the second you start not telling the truth it becomes dangerous. Suicide isn't the "easy way out" either, it doesn't mean that you are "too weak". Honestly, he's too much, Tyson Fury, Mental Health Champion, suicide is for weak people.

 

The fight will happen and Tyson will flatten him, hope he doesn't mess about (very unlikely) and goes and defends vs a top fighter then gets the unification on, this is a pipedream though.

 

Fury's dad said that Tyson is currently training in the UK and will fly out to the States a couple of weeks before the fight.

From what I can gather, members of the team that was so successful for the second Wilder fight, SugarHill Steward, George Lockhart are in America.

That sounds far from ideal. Fury should be working with them in person now - joining up with them in the final stages of training camp makes no sense to me.

Steward and Lockhart travelled to the UK to join Fury as he prepared for a potential title defence at the end of 2020 so why aren't they with him now?

Wilder, in the meantime, has been quietly getting on with it.

I don't think Fury is as focussed in his preparations and I can see him leading on the scorecards but showboating and ultimately getting caught and knocked out.

I really hope Fury wins. I like him and I want to see AJ vs Fury for the four main belts (I don't call it the undisputed title because undisputed actually means undisputed)

 

As I have been saying. Fury and Wilder are BOTH frauds and have abysmal resumes. Fury has 0 title defenses and Wilder has plenty of defenses against weak heavyweights. And Fury is a steroid/cocaine cheat who runs from rematches. Now these two are bringing each other down and holding up the entire division.

 

About as believable as him having COVID or giving his purse away to charity.

 

Lockhart is here, don't think Sugar Hill is though.

 

I don’t think the fact that his nutritionist is in a different country is going to make or break his career.

 

I didn't say it would. I said having two members of his team in a different country for the majority of his training camp is far from ideal.

The nutritionist can be kept up to date on the work Fury is doing and inform a cook in the camp of what meals to prepare (still not ideal) but having SugarHill in another county is a major issue.

Some remote training could be done online but that's a very poor substitute for the real thing.
