Fury of Düsseldorf? Sure, no problem. I just don't think the fury you're talking about exists, at least at the moment. I think the build up, pressers and level of expectation etc. etc would not be easy either.
I'm not disputing that he may struggle I just believe the sheer size of him would be too much for Bellew the even now.
This. When Fury gets back into shape and is 3-4 fights into his comeback he would toy with Bellew, but right now he's a fat slob and I could see Bellew having Fury swinging at air all night. If Bellew stays active I could see him actually beating most of the top heavyweights, since they are garbage except for Wilder, Joshua, Ortiz. Whyte, Parker, and Miller are actually winnable fights for Bellew, but most likely wouldn't be worth any money, since all three are slow as molasses and have weak gas tanks.
I expect this fight to happen. I like it for both guys. Challenging for the lineal heavyweight championship of the world would be a great way to bow out if you're Tony Bellew. Andre Ward would be nothing more than a novelty fight. Claiming the lineal heavyweight championship of the world would be a far more significant career achievement. Bellew could bow out on an all-time high if he wins & have a place in the history books as a lineal heavyweight champion of the world. Absolutely no disgrace if he loses either. If Fury wins, it should be an automatic pass-through to an Anthony Joshua fight. Really good Pommie heavyweight stoush (match-up wise). Bring it on.
Agreed he is a scum bag opportunist. If he can't get Fury I expect him to try an avenge his loss to Stevenson who is now 40 and past it. Bellew will try and drag him up to 200 pounds. If Fury has another tune up and looks better Bellew will go quiet.
Highly doubt Fury will face Charr or Bellew next... If he faces one of those two it will be at the end of the year. Will be another soft touch, and the next camp will pretty much be fat camp part deux.
Let us be honest Fury and Haye are not exactly 2 guys who hid from calling out all and sundry (including Bellew), Fury and Haye are/were bigtime users of all media platforms to boast, jive talk and promise to destroy all opponents, so Bellew calling them out is just part of the whole game, is Bellew suggesting he is going to be the next unified Heavyweight Champion no. Bellew merely has/is looking to make better money fights, neither Haye or Fury would face him unless they wish to, and neither would they if they if did not believe they could win, whether Haye was in decline or not, he passed the medicals, he had full training camp and stated he felt in peak condition, albeit he came up short in the bout. What would your response be if Haye or indeed Fury despite both still forcefully expounding their abilities and still 'active' boxers, were to make statement of refusing to accept Bellews challenge merely as they were not in good enough health, not fight fit etc, AKA acknowledging Bellew at that moment was the better man?
I find Bellew very irritating, would love to see Fury destroy him. I think a fit and ready Fury would beat him fairly easily. Not ready now though, needs a couple more fights to get his eye in.
My response would be to **** (another word for poop - hit with an S thrown in somewhere) all over Bellew regardless. Even if Bellew isn't to blame I'll turn it against him and **** on him. Any chance I get to take shots at Bellew I'll be taking them.
