    I am excited to see Fury back into the ring against anyone, no matter who. He will step it up soon, said he will fight as many fights as he can get to get into top shape, get his timing back. So, no, I have no complaints. Hell, he should have fought Dustin Nichols, Sconiers, they Wilder fans would claim he is the best!

    It's good to see him looking in shape and sounding positive. The fight is what it is, a glorified sparring session dressed up as a contest. I'll watch as I have BT sport, but I wouldn't go out of my way to pay for it or attend, at least for the Fury fight, I'm interested in seeing how Gorman Turner pans out.

    Its very exciting to see him return. His return has been so anticipated that people forget the headliner has Flannagan facing Hooker to become a two weight world champ. This isn't like Haye's return where he was the main event.
    Its a quality card with some good undercard fights like Gorman vs Turner. Filip Hrgovic was the distance by Turner in his last fight.
    Great card for BT Sport who are now outdoing MR non PPV shows.

    This fight is not getting any attention at all. Fury is NOT a draw.

    Fury is never selling 40k seats. Fury isn't that popular over here and after a couple of fights people will soon remember just how boring he is to watch.

    Thats a testament to his popularity and drawing power. Nobody has a clue who Safari is yet everybody will be watching come Saturday night.

    I can't say I'm excited, but I'd definitely watch that fight. Just out of curiosity, in fact.

    Exactly true. Some casuals get riled up with Fury's pre-fight antics, but once he's inside the ring they're quickly reminded he's terribly boring. It's like watching paint dry.

    I'd like to see what he looks like in the ring. Obviously the
    opponent is a walk over, but what I wanna see is how he
    moves around in the ring, combinations, his stamina etc......

    Regardless of the opponent level, some things you can see clear
    as day (regarding if a guy still has it).
