    Everything you say is spot on, just a slight correction on what Johnny Nelson was saying. Literally days before the supposed cut, Nelson says that Fury didn't have a good camp, and this was the info from his camp. Fury fanboys on here claimed this was mind games.
    And few days later OP postponement of the fight.
    Nelson claimed Fury camp wasn't good, and he was worked out in sparring, etc, but not mentioning Opetaia. Opetaia rumours comes out a bit after that, when Opetaia leave Fury camp.

    It's obviously a guessing game, but Krassyuk maybe right. The cut is legit, but it didn't happen on the given video.

    No, that's true. He said that "Fury was worked over in sparring" as I remember, but didn't mention Opetaia specifically. But I at least saw him say this after Opetaia had left his camp. You're sure it was before?

    Yeah he has done multiple interview on the topic before and after.

    Btw team Usyk are also concerning with Turki and team Fury staxking everything against them.
    There ia interview with Krassyuk. Going to post it later on.
    Just the reason he is talking on the topic is concerning.

    Yeah, if Fury wins a decision and it's not clear it's deserved there will be controversy. Because it's pretty clear that the Saudis want Fury-AJ next.

    Btw, I think that the cut might actually have been a good thing, intentionally caused ot not. Because now we will not have the question hanging over if Fury lost too much weight too fast and was compromised. He's had all the time he needs to make the weight he wants to be at and seems to have used it, so no excuses.
