    According to Fury Hearn has contacted him and already booked Wembley Stadium for the MEGA fight on 18th April 2018.

    Tyson no longer has a promoter so Eddie has also alluded that he may sign Fury if Fury willing to join Matchroom.



    Tyson Fury:

    "It gives me motivation that a lot of poeple have picked him to beat me but, as I have said many times, we are in a sport that is called sweet science, not a bodybuilding contest or a strong man competition.
    "When you can't box and move, slip and slide and ride shots, and one man can, it is an easy fight.

    "I will give him a boxing lesson and he will get so tired of chasing me around, trying to land big punches and missing all the time, I would stop him in the late half of the fight.

    "Klitschko almost done him in round six. He was gone. Round five he was fatigued, round six he got plastered and had to crawl off the canvas. He was getting outboxed.

    "He was landing big shots easy but I ain't 41, I am 28. I will be 29 next year when the fight happens.

    So Tony Josh is going to duck his mandatory challenger, Luis Ortiz, for money fights? Cool, but drop the belts and get your dough.
    I want consistency. I want the same outrage that was going on on this forum and in the media of boxing when Cotto and Canelo had the 160 titles and stalled out Golovkin.
    I want the same tears to fall when Povetkin was suppose to face Wilder but couldn't lay off the spike long enough to **** clean.
    Where is the rage?

    This makes zero sense. I can only assume you have limited brain cells.

    I will explain here for you simpleton:

    Firstly, yes, without taking context into account, Canelo pureposly avoided his mandatory (GGG), and yes if AJ fights Fury then he will too purposely avoid his mandatory.

    However, let's apply context.

    When Cucknelo avoided he didn't do it to fight a tougher, more prestigious opponent. He did it quite simply because he was scared, this is irrefutable.

    AJ would actually be taking a much harder fight avoiding his mandatory. AJ would be taking a VOLUNTARY against the recognised lineal heavyweight champion of the world.

    So to answer your question, AJ will not get any stick at all, if he gets anything, it will be praise.

    Personally, I don't think it will happen then.

    But it certainly could.

    Why would a person who believes it happens then be an idiot?

    If Eddie rang Fury and whispered something in the tone of 30 million.. You know fat ass Fury will get in shape straight away. A in shape Fury gives every heavyweight a problem.

    This is just according to Fury so it's probably nonsense.

    What happened to Mick Hennesey? fairly sure he is still Tyson's promoter...

    Summer 2018 is legit...why not?

    only thing that can get in the way is BBBOC or UKAD. Tyson will be be 280 pounds by the end of the year NO PROBLEM.

    No licence......still suspended......UKAD hearing unlikely before October, and then there is the question of what penalties he gets at that hearing....

    Absolutely no way TF will be ready for AJ by April 2018.
