    It’s very transparent.

    Bad mouthing the most dangerous HW out there whilst fighting an MMA fighter in a boxing ring. Not only is it a straight duck, but it also displays a shocking contempt for the sport.

    I'd actually forgotten he was fighting an MMA fighter next, another play taken out of the Mayweather play book.

    Only fighting for money, avoiding risky fights, fighting MMA fighters in exhibitions, and he was caught doping while Mayweather was caught using IV's to mask likely doping. I guess Fury's next move is to fight a Youtuber or a member of a crime family.

    Suffice to say Fury has become a joke. He probably doesn't care as he's making millions to half arse his way through the final years of his boxing career but he should really change his name, he doesn't deserve to be named after a fighter as great as Tyson. Should change it to Floyd Fury, Christ he's probably not even worthy of that name.

    For all his ducking and aging other fighters, at least Mayweather retired from boxing for good before doing these exhibition bouts. Fury doing it as the reigning WBC champion while the WBC president saying he is totally cool with it is just another level of corruption.

    Quite frankly, in my eyes, the WBC belt isn’t worth a damn thing as it stands. We are back to an era where only three organisations and belts are recognised and thus Usyk has been the reigning, undefeated and undisputed heavyweight champion of the world since 2021. Those spineless morons at the WBC can make lily-livered saggy tits their HW champion for life for all I care. It’s ridiculous that no legit top fighter was allowed or ordered to fight for that belt in over three and a half years. Saggy tits clinging to it like no tomorrow is just pathetic.

    The only consolation of course is that Fury utterly destroyed any legacy he had himself. He will always be remembered as the worst HW champion in history in terms of how he carried himself as champion and how he built a legacy. Only a handful of idiots remain his fans and I suspect most of them are sick of him too just don’t want to lose face publicly so they pretend to still be proud and committed. But I don’t believe for a second that between these Chisora fights, ducking Usyk and Joshua, fighting non-boxers and constant lying about anything and everything there are people out there who follow the news about him and still genuinely feel happy and content about his ways. I simply refuse to believe they don’t go “f*** me, not again, what is it this time, I’m fed up now” when they see a thread here or an article in a boxing news site with the headline: “Controversy: Fury says…”

    Fury contempts and robs his own fans the most, and that’s why I have zero respect for him and for them.

    Thats why he doesnt have much support left fron boxing fans. All the credit he has build up after his comeback has been thrown away by his recent antics.

    More to the point, why would he not want to fight that guy?

    If it's a fight he'd back himself to win there's no better fight for his resume...

    The only way Fury will become irrelevant is if people stop talking about him. But they can't.

    Fury is living rent free in so many heads it is astonishing.

    Pretty sure i seen an interview with fury talking about usyk back when usyk was a cruiserweight. Was raving about how good he was.

    Was way before....there was any chance of them fighting either. He was just talking about the boxing lanscape in general.

    Same with Floyd cheering for Manny when he fought Morales.
    Boxers sing a different tune once a guy moves up in weight and becomes a threat.

    Fury craves the adulation of the public more than most so the backlash will be impacting him

    Whilst I openly admitted I was team Usyk all the way when negotiations for Usyk vs Fury commenced I did make it clear that it would also be a case of may the best man win and if that so happened to be Belly I would be happy for him. But Belly has managed to turn me from being a big fan to someone who cannot stand him anymore because of all the crap he's pulled ducking the hell out of this fight.

    More like 20% :lol:

    Not sure why people not calling him by his real name, Duckson Fury. And it will remain as such until such time he gets in the ring with Usyk for all the belts. If he doesn't want to be a pro boxer, he needs to get the hell out of our sport. MMA can have him.
