    What has Parker done to deserve anything? He beat a shot, ancient Wilder and stank the place out in a **** show against ancient Zhang who put him down twice. Don't even mention Bakole.

    Let's not forget who this has come from, before we all get too worked up. If Fury told me the sky was blue, I would need to see it to believe it

    Don't be surprised if AJ and fury fight to decide who is next LOL

    He has third best win streak in the divison and is a WBO mandatory. What do you mean what has he done? He beat 3 Top 10 guys back to back to back (you can argue 2 of them were Top 5) in the span of less than 3 years, while Fury hasn't beaten a Top 10 contender in over 3 years and is coming off back to back loses...

    At the moment I think a Fury - Usyk III is very unlikely. The Ukrainian champion has to face Dubois on the 19th, and then, in my opinion, before April 2026 Eddie Hearn will move to organize Fury - Joshua (with the support of Warren and Turki Alalshikh).

    These are my assumptions, obviously things can go differently and clearly if Turki Alalshikh wants Usyk - Fury 3 the match will take place but I will only believe it when the contract is signed.

    Well; I am just as fuming as the rest of the above posts.

    Was even more when Wilder 3 was announced; in hindsight one of the more entertaining matches this decade.

    Perhaps these two have one last interesting dance for us.

    And yet that's still noticeably more than Kabayel has - it's slim pickings right now.

    We can only hope it's a publicity stunt to get him back in the spotlight and help sell the Joshua fight...

    There's nothing to see with Usyk - Fury's been outclassed twice, nobody needs to see it again.

    Awful decision
    Fury has been in Istanbul and non stop complained about his decisions with Usyk. Turki who I really like and love what he’s doing but this in my opinion in the completely wrong decision. Fury has cried his way into getting this 3rd fight

    Dubois should not be overlooked.

    Quite the closed shop/money grab Usyk's reign has turned out to be: Joshua (2021), Joshua (2022), Dubois (2023), Fury (2024), Fury (2024), Dubois (2025), Fury (2026 allegedly)

    Fighting 3 people back to back nah bruh this is gonna bite Usyk in the ass. The next heavyweight great will have like 15 title defenses against top guys and people will still say Usyk is greater
