Does Fury retire if he gets knocked out?

Refer to my other point that you can't keep living in the past and ignoring AJs completely one sided losses.

 

He probably does retire. I just hope he stays in good shape. A lot of these guys get obese once they retire.

 

When Fury retires, whether it is next week or five years out, he is going to be a train wreck.

 

He should... But he won't.

 

I'm not. We talking about whole career achievements here. If it was for "what did you do for me recently" thing, Fury wouldn't even be a Top 5, since his last Top 10 win was almost 3 years ago.

 

Next week will tell us what Tyson Fury has left mentally and physically.

Made his money so no need to fight on should he lose.

 

You kind of are, because AJ hasn't actually achieved anything since losing his belts to Usyk, which was roughly 4 years ago.

His losses to Usyk are understandable, but on paper both Ruiz and Dubios should have been easy work and he got knocked out in dominant fashion by both. It's gonna affect his overall legacy.

 

Retirement will be the best decision if he loses by KO.

 

Yes
But he will be back to fight in exhibitions & WWE / WWF or whatever the wrastling crap is called.

 

I don't think Ruiz' loss should affect his legacy - he avenged it after all. Just like Lennox avenged losses to McCall and Rahman. But the L to Dubois, for sure. It can impact his legacy, but it's irrelevant when it comes to the Fury comparison, as Fury never fought him. And if you test yourself more, you bound to lose more often. After AJ lost to Usyk every Fury fanboy was mocking him for losing to a middleweight saying Fury would easily beat the Ukrainian. Well, we see how it worked out.

 

50m for fighting AJ says no

 

Getting a timid points decision isn't really avenging a KO loss against a 30-1 underdog imo. At least Lewis actually avenged his loss with a KO.

As for "testing himself more" Ruiz was supposed to be an easy replacement, Dubios a stepping stone, and AJs last 4 opponents were basically tune up fights.

Also incorrect. After AJ lost to Usyk many were initially picking Usyk to beat Fury (myself included). It was considered an almost 50/50 match up, and imo still is.

 

He didn't avenge his loss against McCall with a KO. And McCall was an underdog as well. 5-1 I think.

Buster Douglas was supposed to be an easy opponent for Mike Tyson too. Shyte happens, it's boxing. Fury up until May been fighting tune up fights since his Whyte victory and almost lost to a boxing novice. He lost the first time he stepped up after that.

There was a lot of hate for AJ after he lost to Usyk and you know that. Including from Fury himself.

 

A Fury loss pretty much guarantees the Fury Joshua fight. A Fury win sets up a trilogy.

 

Lewis won in round 5 by TKO in their rematch. Are you trying to argue AJs scared point victory is equal?

Mike Tyson was past his prime by then tbh. AJ was supposed to be in his best form of his career.

Sure there was, because AJ threw Usyks belts out of the ring and is an absolute diva. You didn't actually address the fact Usyk (at least in this forum) was a heavy favourite to beat Fury at that point.

Not sure what you're trying to accomplish here. AJs chance at being number 2 of the division sailed when he got clowned by Dubios. At this rate he'll be lucky if he managed top 5.

Back to the actual subject here, I'm backing Fury to get the job done by round 10. If he loses, he likely retires filthy rich with the odd exhibition fight.
