    Charr perhaps?

    Shows he’s clearly taking Usyk seriously by effectively having a tune up.

    ‘Not waiting around for anybody’ from the man who’s retired 8 times in the last two months.

    Hopefully Tyson Fury has a tune up fight versus Dell Boy Joshua to get 3-4 rounds in before he fights Usyk next year.

    Hearn might be able to bid a million quid on the purse bid after he’s got his pocket money from DAZN.

    My advice would be to ignore what Fury says. People still hang on his every word but he just says any old rubbish to keep himself in the headlines and to build fights - it clearly works.

    His actions are all that matters really. I appreciate it’s annoying, but if we take everything he says literally then it makes us just as naive as Mark Ant or Vegan Beast.

    Fury reels them all in time and again - cannot understand why people keep landing in his net.

    Must be the similar cohort of PPV Mugths who get fleeced time and again being wound up by Fury with no idea whether they want to go for a pint or have a haircut.

    I don't know who I am fighting followed by I know who my next opponent is followed by I cannot say until the presser next week.

    The legend known as The Gypsy King will have the seethers out in force now.

    Plays his detractors like a fiddle every time. Probably can’t believe his luck when he gets a nibble.

    He has just fought Wilder and Whyte, both are credible. Let him have a keep busy if that’s what he needs. I won’t be buying it if it’s on PPV but I am not against fighters being active.

    Hopefully it is Del Boy so he can get a few more quid (luckiest earner in all of boxing for his talent level) so Del can call it a day

    Exactly. I'm sure Fury knows deep down that it's realistic for Usyk to take some time off. I'm sure Fury said much the same after Wilder 3 regarding spending time with family.

    It's all for fight building purposes but he still winds people up somehow as they keep falling for it.

    I suspect it might be Charr given their back and forth over social media. Shows to me he's taking Usyk seriously, as he should. Hopefully the fight gets made in the first half of next year and both fighters are injury and rust free.

    Exactly - and the videos from the WWE is a great way to keep him in the limelight, especially if their is an imminent fight announcement.

    I think Fury was hinting he’d like to fight Joshua in December.. obviously that won’t happen but would be interesting if they’ve tried to make it.

    Thought fury was retired, now everyone’s telling him his entire heavyweight legacy rests with a feather fisted cruiserweight with three fights and no KOs at the weight. Seems ridiculous to me.

    what next after he punches a big hole through the little midget? Some unbeaten light heavy steps up and beats a couple of bums at heavy and fury’s legacy rests on a 200lb man with a three fight heavyweight track record?

    Fury is right about USKY, showing him zero respect as a heavy. he has FIFTY pounds on him. And it’s not like USKY is even a banger, he cant crack an egg.

    it seems people are so desperate for Fury not to be an ATG heavy that they are trying to invent fighters who beat him “this little cruiser has some weird angles, he beats fury”

    p4p is such a stupid notion, one for the top trumps boxing fans to get all excited over, as if it negates a fifty pound weight discrepancy because “p4p rankings bruv”

    USKY is getting run over like a Mack truck and a coyote crossing the road.

    “but that coyote moved so fast!”

    I would not write off Usyk's chances

    but yes I agree it is funny how persons are making an injury prone feather fisted small cruiser-heavy the saviour to slay Fury . the same lot were dismissing Fury as a feather fist not long ago. & put all their hopes in Joshua and/or Wilder's power punches
