    Has the best stable and puts on good fights. Far bigger problems in boxing than Uncle Bob.

    Spoiling boxing? Would everything be great without him?

    Shame on him for putting on three Fury Klitschko bouts. He should've been trying to get Fury in with his other man Pulev, because his jab is better than Wilder's apparently, and he is a "solid top 10 boxer". This is only one example in a litany of slip ups the old tart has made.

    Putting on Fury vs Usyk next year is a disaster for boxing when Fury could be "clearing out the division" against "top tenners" like Martin, Molina, Takam, Parker, Pulev, Breazeale and so on.

    Fury without 2 wins against Pulev and a victory against Cornish Pasty on his CV is knocking him out my current top 30

    ATG. We need another 10 year out of him at least.

    He's really old - he's 90, he'll be dead soon don't worry.

    That's why Eddie Hearn refuses to diss him too much, out of respect of the knowledge he'll be in a coffin anytime anyday soon. It could happen at a show.

    Don't think Eddie is in a position to diss anyone at the moment!

    Unfortunately I can only remember one Fury v klitschko bout. When did the other two happen?
