    I just recently had him ranked #6 in my version of HW division rankings, but this man has disappointed me beyond belief. Granted I haven't followed his career as extensively as some, but I do know that he ducked Price and even went as far as vacating a regional belt just to avoid fighting Price as a mandatory.

    Then he talked a load of crap and pulled out against Ustinov, a tall in shape opponent.

    How is this man ever going to fight the likes of Wilder and Wlad, both in great shape and both over 6'6?

    I think he likes the advantage of being bigger because he's basically got a bullies mentality

    First off.....

    Does anyone have PROOF of what he was supposed to make for Chisora???

    Ive read it was in the neighborhood of 450K US, but I can't remember which forum it was.

    That said, does anyone KNOW if F-Wank was gonna guarantee his purse of 450K???? if he fought Ustinov????

    F-Wank was lsoing $$$$$ on that card. It was proven. Yet somehow he was going thru with it.

    Politics exist in boxing.

    If F-Wank was sending Fury in there with Ustinov for 1/2 the original purse, it may well have been the reason for the pull out. And we still havent heard anything about Uncle Hueys health have we?????:-:)huh:huh:huh

    Do you think Fury would have pulled out if Ustinov was out of shape? Or if it was Tarver instead of the giant Belarusian?

    your amusement would be understandable if Fury did in fact fight him. I agree that Ustinov hasn't done anything of significance in the HW scene, but he is the biggest man Fury would have ever fought, and he wasn't out of shape or retiring at the time.

    Oh, and not to mention, I don't think Fury ever met guys bigger than him since 6th grade ;)

    I agree it was a BIT.CH move..... but its not because he fears the big oaf.
    if the money wasnt right, he should have never agreed to fight the guy.
    He deserves all the crap he's getting

    Fury is like the dude in high school who would get in a fight and only act tough and get mouthy when someone held him back

    The guy is a coward and only fights guys he knows he can beat

    Fury officially ducked Pulev and Ustinov. Fury is a pathetic clown who pisses on our sport and its fans.

    Of course he does. His size is the only thing that has prevented him from being knocked out. Feather fisted Cruiserweight Steven Cunningham had this dude on ***** street.

    If David Haye gets back to health, I could see him easily decapitating Tyson Fury.
