    Mmmm that's a bit like saying whose worse Stalin or Hitler.

    To be fair they both talk a lot of crap. I take what either of them say with a pinch of salt.

    Even if I was just asking what the weather was like outside. I would still have to go and check for myself....

    He’s going to struggle to get his 6 fights for the year in at this rate.

    Are we actually discussing this as if Whyte has a chance? Do you all seriously think he'd duck Whyte, a guy who lost vs Povetkin, out of fear?

    He's already beaten far better. Whyte would get slaughtered against the Wlad and Wilder that Fury fought.

    This fight's outcome is already decided. Whyte is going to get obliterated by any Fury that takes the fight seriously.

    I don’t think Fury is scared of Whyte, it’s just a negotiation tactic. He’s calling Hearn/Whyte out on their bluff. Whyte is holding out on his 45% split demand which he’s done nothing to deserve.

    Would be disgraceful if he ducks Whyte

    I agree that Fury flip flops, he is very unpredictable.

    But the thread title claims Fury has threatened to vacate the belt. He hasn't. Bob Arum has.

    This is just promoters playing power games via the media.

    So Hearn and Whyte are taking the **** with the split.

    I always thought for Whyte it was 'just about getting his shot', no now they are trying to low ball Fury and force his hand.

    **** Hearn and **** Whyte.

    Whytes a punching bag on legs, I really doubt Fury is worried at all.

    Which is actually why Whyte would stand any chance in this fight, as Fury likely doesn't rate him.

    Amazing that you guys are giving Fury another pass. This is a duck move. Nothing else. He is afraid of fighting Whyte. Just like Wilder was afraid of fighting him. Any other fighter would be ridiculed for dropping a belt but you idiots are trying to say it's a smart move by Fury. BS. Its ducking. Nothing more. Ducking from a 1 title defense con man

    I agree, if Whyte lands that hook clean, Fury will be laid out. He's got about 5 highlight reel KOs with his left hook alone.

    wouldn't everybody. Whyte is the interim beltholder, and became that because it takes a century before finally getting his shot. Doesn't matter what happened inbetween (juicing, getting iced by ancient Povetkin), he should have gotten that shot ages ago. Now he wants to go towards pursebids, to make it land on a Matchfixroom card, with a 45% cut and location advantage. Take the cake, with a cherry on top.

    Ah yes I remember Whytes last KO! It was against a 40 year old Povetkin who had just waddled off the hospital bed.

    Truly frightening....
