    Knowing Whyte he would probably find a reason to duck it anyway claim the victim and fight an old man on PPV.

    The WBC have offered him 3 final eliminators and followed the rules. It’s not their fault Whyte turned down the first 2.

    Isn’t their fault Dirty Dillian didn’t want to fight outside the comfort of his beloved O2.

    I wouldn't doubt it haha. I have never seen a guy be the mandatory for that long without even a hint of getting a shot. Fury and Wilder both want nothing to do with Whyte but they each will talk smack about him. It's ridiculous

    How many eliminators did Fury fight? And does fighting Serferi count as one?

    Fury actually refused to be mandatory as he said it was pointless as he already contracted to fight Wilder. WBC still wrongly removed Whyte as mandatory and gave it to Fury, despite being proven Whyte did no wrong doing.

    WBC president then said prior to Povetkin rematch If Whyte wins he would be made mandatory again. After the fight the WBC president went back on his word and said Whyte is not the mandatory and just ranked number 1.

    Did he fake COVID?

    Do you know that for a fact?

    If Fury avoids the fight I agree with you that he should be stripped. However, if he duffs Wilder up again I'll be very surprised if your tone about him alters at all.

    All signs point to Tyson Fury not being ready.

    Why is there literally no promotion or talk of this fight once again? It’s only 5 weeks ago, I just can’t see it going ahead. I’d love to be wrong.

    If the fight gets called off again I hope Fury doesn't get a fight with Joshua early next year.

    Even though I was really looking forward to Fury v Joshua if Fury pulls another crappy excuse out of the bag he doesn't deserve the massive payday and potential to become undisputed champion. His antics are really starting to grate

    We've just had the Jake Paul PPV, the promotion will start shortly.

    With Spence-Pacquiao having fallen through, there's some pent-up demand for a big PPV fight in Vegas.

    If he didn't, please tell me how he cured it in a couple of days. Then went to the casino with no after effects. Please explain...I'll wait

    I said they are both frauds and I stand by that. If Fury beats Wilder then great for him. That doesn't mean he would automatically beat everyone else in the division. And he has yet to even fight MOST of the best in the division. If he steamrolls through AJ, Whyte and a couple of other guys, I will shut my mouth. But we all know he won't even think about fighting most f them because he hasn't. Instead he fought Seferi, Swchartz, Pianeta, Wallin...

    If he pulls out, he CAN'T fight AJ until he either fights Wilder or pays him off. And Wilder wants his pound of flesh so there's no pay out. Plus, if Fury somehow skips Wilder then he will absolutely want a tune up bum fight before he fights AJ. Possibly 2 bum fights. Fury already doesn't deserve a pay day since he has sat on that belt for 2 years now.
