    Seems he’s in the UK interestingly. His nutritionist George Lockhart his nutritionist is here.
    Good move perhaps - all the US stuff seemed a bit of a circus.

    Can't believe this 3rd fight is happening. Why is wilder been given a 3rd chance?

    he had a rematch clause. I’m not convinced Fury blows him out quicker this time either though he should win.

    Sugar Hill and Tommy fury are 100% stateside. I also seen Paris post up a few days ago about an empty bed and her missing him. So I still standby he’s in America!

    He's training in Manchester with Sugar Hill and they go to Vegas in 2/3 weeks.

    Well put. There's nothing wrong with being sceptical. I wouldn't say that I necessarily think it was predetermined, just that I wouldn't be surprised if it was. Sport is notoriously corrupt and that is embodied in one of my main interests in doping, anti-doping policy, governance and ethics (but is obviously not exclusive to this area).

    When there's big money involved in anything, there will be corruption. I did enjoy that bout, so I obviously hope that it wasn't.

    I can't remember that, he was like a drunken sailor by that point.

    Thank you, smithshaun. You've made my morning.

    it was the 12th round of a gruelling fight against wilder after 3 years out the ring.........

    watch it again and look where fury is looking when the first punch lands, wilder is punching down as fury in ducking and not even looking at the punch coming , he connects with downward motion against someone not defending himself. Wilder is a murderous puncher his motion leaning forward gives him the leverage for the second punch..

    Are people honestly saying that fury pretended to be knocked out ffs, what so he could get up on the count of 9 possibly even ten just for the crack loooooool

    not only that 99 percent of referees would have waved it off straight away, fury would risk that for dramatic effect his unbeaten record the chance to win the wbc belt in a fight he was miles ahead in. Come on people you will be saying the referee was in on the final scene as well...oh wait maybe he was.........:duh

    I did not say it was orchestrated.
    The punch that felled Fury did not have Wilder's vaunted power on it. Especially the second hook which struck Fury as he went down.

    Look at the condition of Fury in the first fight compared to the 2nd, first fight he was in a fat loss training camp and his stamina and punch resistance were limited the 2nd fight he walked through wilder, the reason he was knocked down was purely down to this nothing more

    6 weeks to go and still no presser. No promotion and no noise. Just like last time. This fight is not happening folks. The only question will be. Will the WBC strip Fury?
