    Ducked Micky Theo
    Ducked Big Joe Egan

    The 2 guys above called his bluff and exposed him as a big shytehouse.

    Met Big Joe Egan and he would rather die than duck a fight.

    He is making a fool of himself. He also recently called out Froch to fight in Wembley. What the hell makes him think Wembley wants him?

    I think he called out Mike Tyson at that point when they were present at a press day.

    I also believe part of it is the gipsy way of life, where they call people out on tape; not going through with it on John's part is the cowardly and greedy side of him.

    Many years ago Frank Grant showed who John Fury was beneath the surface; a real hard man was Grant and not too bad in the ring either.

    EDIT - HERE he is calling Mike out, I would also hazard a guess the guy whose eye John took out was of a similar build to the guy in Usyk's team he butted, either that, or he sly shot him. Micky Theo sparred with Lenny Mclean once.

    Beale are you saying he’s not a hard hard man. He’s well over 6 foot he’s a giant and is built like a ox he can run miles too. Fit and strong. He can’t be that weak.

    I can't stand the man to be fair, however there used to be a poster on here back in the old ESB days (Iceman) who was from the travelling community who knew of John and actually said he's one of the most terrifying men he's been around. Said John, when he was a bit younger was a genuinely hard man.

    That makes it all the worse in my opinion, he's become a parody of himself. Instantly turned off him after that Frampton run -in. Bully of a man

    Well said.

    Nothing sums up Fury Snr. more than the Carl Frampton episode, but they have always said, Give someone money and they simply become more of whom they already are, same with fame. Thus if you're already an arsehole, they just become a bigger *******, as you see in the below clip.

    Guy is a psychopath.

    I'm enjoying Big John's absence from the scene since his lad got beat. Long may it continue.

    If we are all being transparent then the family, John's side of it, are all cowards. Tommy ran away from Till, Tyson wanted no part of Usyk or any of the top fighters, John is a laughing stock. They say the apple doesn't fall far. Hughie and Peter are nothing like that mob. Hughie has a resume in terms of fighting top 10 opponents that really isn't far off Tysons.

    It took an Arab with BILLIONS to get him in the hoop with USYK. Then Tyson kept upping the odds and Usyk called HIS BLUFF by accepting 70/30. Wilder picked HIM. What happed to the sequel to the biggest flop of a championship fight? How about CHISORA and ING-ARR-NOO? Why did HE NOT face the cream and chose them pair? Username say's it all me old fruit.

    Did it need an oil baron, a cherrypick gone wrong, and did he fail a drug test? Why are you Fury DIEHARDS so thick?

    Right, so he’s a coward but fought all 3 of them. Makes sense.

    Sausage.
