It's funny how so many guys throw around the 'This isn't the WWE'.....but then react to comments just like WWE fans. Fury is throwing outlandish comments out there, being the perfect Heel. Doing a good job as far as i'm concerned. He's getting a lot of attention considering we've got two huge heavyweight bouts coming up and he's inactive and still way overweight.
I'd like to see the Tarver fight just to see if Fury could knock Tarver out for the first time. It's a sideshow match up of course, but then Tyson's a side show attraction at this point.
That version of Fury prime Tarver might of been competitive as Fury pretty much gave up his height and reach and took the fight to USS. But prime Tarver would of lost to a Fury that boxes and moves. Tarver always needed to be set to punch, movers like Hopkins and Dawson schooled him as he couldn't set to throw. But old, inactive, fat Tarver against any version of Fury loses.
Fury was on a pub crawl when that fight went down. He went back on the sauce down town as soon as he left the ring
I think people are going to be very disappointed with Fury mark 2. He's being overrated on here quite a bit. The days of him beating Joshua and Wilder are long gone imo. The bit of tenacity/attitude has gone too with him, showing fighters far to much respect that he could be fighting soon.
I suspect you're right, next to no chance he will be as good as he was even if he can get back down to the same weight. You can't put your body through all that and come out and be 100% again.
I can give a pass to briggs under exceptional circumstances, Hes the only guy pushing 50 that has a buzz and a relevance right now, it makes a tone of sense business wise and would be nice to see Briggs get a payday after all the effort hes put in to his lets go champ movement. But as for Tarver GTFO with that ****.
No idea tbh, Seems like a very very odd person to call out, He would have been better off calling out some bum nobody has ever heard of than somebody everybody knows is an irrelevant grandad, especially after all the talking hes done over the recent months, You're supposed to be the Gypsy king.
He won't fight again! I was among the first, if not the first on ESB to say this. Once he started that nonsense with the Wlad rematch I knew. Then he came up with mental issues and failed drug tests. It's over, say good by. His legecy will be the worst heavy weight reign in history.
