    When I I'm on this site I log in perhaps 10% of the time to begin a thread or like/reply to a post. The other 9/10 times I just browse the threads.

    I find myself often agreeing with your posts/comments, in fact almost always - However on this I feel we disagree.

    BT and PBC would not advertise and post about the fight if it wasn't 100% on. I understand your sceptiscism regarding venues and dates - but those pulling the strings at these corporations wouldn't allow these official posts if there were doubts about it going ahead.

    Gorman seems to be angling at getting on the card.

    Could be a good opportunity for him

    Be great exposure. He could probably beat most of the top 15 now and in impressive fashion too.

    Would certainly make the late night more appealing for Brits.

    Who have Showtime got that could fight him?

    Eric Molina maybe? Or would that be considered as a step too far at this stage?

    He does seem happy to push Gorman on a bit quicker than Dubois. So potentially

    He’d box Molina’s head off. I’d love to see it but no way will any of these more experienced lads go up against him. He’ll be avoided just like Joyce.

    I think both sides would avoid it. If Frank put him in against Molina then there’s no turning back, who does he face next? He can’t go back then and face a Gary Cornish. The learning stage is done and you’re expected to kick on. So I’d expect Gorman to be held back a bit now just like Dubois. I have no problems with these two doing so at 20 and 21. It’s the likes of Anthony Yarde who’s 25/26? Ranked 2 in the WBO and still hasnt fought a top 40 fighter that I have a problem with.

    I didn't doubt this fight for one second. Fury haters wished it wouldn't happen. That's how much they hate Fury and "love" the sport of boxing.

    Fantastic news for the heavyweight division and a great boost for the sport in America.

    Fury will be ready, and Fury will win with relative ease, proving his greatness. Huge respect to him for taking the most dangerous fight in the sport so soon on his return. But he's been here before, travelling to Germany at 27 to handily defeat the undefeatable. Roll on December 1st!
