    The only thing I disagree with is the use of the word "verge" to describe his mental breakdown.

    I fully believe he is in 400 pound coke-head mode.

    Nothing more pathetic than being a fan of Fury. Biggest clown in boxing ever.

    Technically his mandatory is already overdue as it's been 14 months since his last mandatory vs Whyte. But we both know WBC are very flexible when it comes to their mandatories often going years without enforcing a mandatory, so yes very convenient indeed that a Mandatory should suddenly come out of the blue.

    If that does happen then it's likely to be Sanchez. Joshua and Wilder will face each other and Ruiz already priced himself out apparently so next in line is Sanchez. Not exactly a fight that excites if I'm honest and Fury already ignored Sanchez when Sanchez called him out, so even Fury and Warren knows it's a fight that doesn't sell.

    Yep as a Fury fan I am disappointed in him in recent times. I even accepted the Chisora fight as I thought he was just using it as a tune up to stay busy for Usyk. Surely Fury knows he has to fight Usyk to redeem himself and restore the reputation he had after destroying Wilder.

    I’m not sure where Fury goes from here, unless it’s a cross promotional fight with Ngannou or Bones he doesn’t have any decent options.

    If Joyce beat Zhang I was sure that we would have had Fury Joyce this summer now I’m thinking he’ll fight maybe Sanchez or the above.

    Fury’s problem has been greed and ignoring the public, it’s like he doesn’t have a PR team, AJ has lost three times once to an out of shape Ruiz and had a public meltdown and hasn’t fought any credible opponents in their prime and won, but still has more credibility then Fury. He must be a promotional nightmare to manage.

    I’ve said it before I predict Wilder to become the stand out heavyweight of this generation, I have him beating AJ and Usyk

    The whole saga is boring with regards to Tyson Fury I really liked him as the underdog and had high hopes he would usher in a near era after the Klitschko brothers, but at least Wlad and Vitali fought everyone despite the heavyweight landscape being the weakest it has been for many years imo. At this stage, as far as I'm concerned Fury may as well fight Butterbean he's become a carnival circus act which is a shame. Hopefully I'm wrong and Tyson proves us all wrong like he has done before, but I'm afraid he's become even more big headed than the Klitschkos even. Money talks doesn't it?

    I can't see AJ beating Wilder or Zhang. I just don't think he has the mental state for it anymore. Usyk didn't just break him physically, he pulled him apart mentally and had him questioning his own ability.

    Yes,,,I beleive Fury has mentally retired as heavyweight champion and his physical condition will confirm that psychological analysis. He's fabulously wealthy now, and that can be more damaging to a boxing career than cocaine.
