After Klitschko, Fury will not get another big fight for a long time

Just kind of realized this. Even if he beats Wlad again (and he should), he will have nothing of note lined up for a long time.

Anthony Joshua-The fight everyone wants to see, Joshua's camp has made it clear at least twice that they are not ready for Fury and will not be for some time.

Deontay Wilder- After he pounds fat corpse Arreola, he will have to face a mandatory, be it Povetkin, Stiverne or maybe Pulev. I think most of us realize that Wilder does not really want Fury or anybody else anyway. He wants to beat corpses until cashed out.

Povetkin- Presumably will be facing Wilder or a suspension.

Haye- Fury has stated that he will not fight Haye under any circumstances due to Haye pulling out twice and almost bankrupting his family.

Joseph Parker- Just won and IBF eliminator, so will probably be facing Joshua.



Those really are the big names. So what is left on table?

Winner of Ustinov-Ortiz-Chagaev-Oquendo- The WBA has stated that they want to clarify the title situation. So Fury will probably end up facing off against the winner of this mess. Excluding Klit, these represent the top four in the WBA.

WBO route- eliminating Parker, who is IBF bound, Klit who will be gone, and Hugh Fury, possible names here include:

Andy Ruiz
Takam
Ustinov
Wallish
Gerber
Scott
Pulev

So, the best we can hope for in the near future is:

Ortiz
Ustinov
Pulev

 

We all stand in awe and fear of Dustin Nichols' boundless potential, which is as great as his girth, but he has to dedicate himself to the sport. Currently, he is too busy saving other galaxies, as well as the odd kitten who got stuck in a tree.

 

Fury won't retire. That is just bi-polar trash talk.

Wilder wants no part of anyone who can fight at all.

Joshua's camp have stated at least twice that they aren't ready for Fury.

 

Dustin, you really have to consider it you want to squander yourself on boxing. The world needs you.
