    After he beats Joshua he'll pursue a rematch to beat him again. Once that's over he'll retire.

    It's goddamn hard to be 6'8" and 300lbs and go thought these 8wk training camps. I think it puts such physical stress on the body. Must be a a painful journey on the wrong side of 30.

    So yes, think we see him retire undefeated. The next crop of heavyweights after Joshua aren't really intriguing matchups for him and the money will be far short of the high's. Doesn't seem like he's the kinda guy motivated by that.

    "Training hard" when you are past your athletic prime, often leads to injuries and sub par performances. Mr David Haye can talk to you more about that.

    Of course but facts are facts.
    Watch the same Fury before first fight vs Wilder:D:bump.
    Then Fury vs Wilder I.
    Then Fury vs Wallin and do not **** on Fury cos cuts. Maybe even you are capable to induce such cuts on the guy. Why not, soft tissues, blood is going out, what a surprise.
    Then Fury vs Wilder II.

    He is improving!!!!!!!!!!!!! looks better, more mobile and agile.

    Of course most likely not much fights left and he does have money, God knows how long he will fight. maybe 1 fights, maybe 2 or 3-4?

    As long as he sticks with opponents like Tim Schwartz and Otto Walin, he should go down as undefeated

    He already did. No fighter should be coming back from the amount of abuse he put his body through during his three years in the wilderness. The amount of alcohol, junk food and coke he got through during that period should've been a death sentence for any top level athlete and then you have to factor him having to lose all that blubber (over 140lbs) after ballooning up to over 400lbs and the battle with mental health on top of all that as if that wasn't enough. But gypsy people are nothing if not resilient and for him to come back and take America's greatest HW since Mike Tyson to slick school in his backyard after not having fought anyone with pulse in over three years when they were 100% and in the form of their career and then go on to literally beat the soul out of them in the rematch, again in his backyard because they were too scared to fight him in his even once, is nothing short of incredible because by rights he had no business even taking on anyone in the top 10 in that kind of shape and after all of that.

    Laugh at Fury, when Wilder will have balls to fight in the U.K with U.K referee and judges?
    Fury had balls to fight in U.S with Wilder. Ppl laughted at him before 1 st fight vs Wilder, internet comments a lot, how easily Fury will be beaten up etc.
    Next fight: before fight talks how fluke was first fight etc.

    After 2 nd fight : costume too heavy, then____________________________

    Depends on wether or not he takes up using copious amounts of cocaine again.

    Fury is large! well marketable and looks that he is improving.
    Motivated Fury is interesting to watch.

    Should already have 2 loses on his record. We all know if he’d of been the B side he would of been stopped on cuts against Wallin and even his own dad says that he should of lost the decision to McDermott. And if he had, my opinion of him would be no different. What is the obsession with fighters having to be unbeaten?

    Advertisement and PR. Better sales.;)
    Look how widely A.J and Wilder had been advertised as undefeated.
    Now these prospects too. Ryan Garcia, Rolando Romero etc countless number of boxers. bunches with dozens of undefeated boxers.

    Fans in modern days need it. Undefeated boxer etc.

    You did it for me. Concise and excellent summary. I've been thinking the same since Fury came back and especially after the first DW fight.

    His comeback is more remarkable than Ali's or Vitali's. Foreman is comparable b/c of the time gap but I don't think George put his body through what Fury did.

    No but he came back much older than fury and went on to KO world champion michael moorer to become the oldest heavyweight champion in history. I think thats one of the greatest boxing feats of all time tbh

    Thanks. If Ali, Vitali, and Foreman snorted half the blow Fury did during his exile they wouldn't have made it past regional level during their comebacks. Being raised on a diet of hedgehog stew and bullfrog pie might not sound too appetizing to non-gypsy man but it sure as hell strengthens your constitution lol
