    Yes. But the WBC belt is barely a legit belt at all these days. They just keep giving fat out of shape Mexicans shots and no one else.

    When the WBC announce a mandatory for Fury then he will have somebody to fight and if he refuses then and only then can he be stripped ! The Heavyweight division is at a standstill as everybody wants a piece of the Saudi pie and all the money that goes with it and that also includes the sanctioning bodies .

    Stripped no, he'll retire again anyways.

    Everyone knows Usyk is the man at HW and Fury has no interest in facing him.

    He's just a sideshow at this point.

    Tyson Fury on Oleksandr Usyk: “Why would I want to fight him for no money? He’s got zero personality, he’s ugly with gappy teeth and he’s half the size of me. If I beat him it’s, ‘Oh well, he beat a middleweight.' If he beats me, he beat the legendary Tyson Fury for no money… If you put Oleksandr Usyk in Morecambe in a leisure centre, he wouldn’t sell it out. I offered him 30% of a large bag and they said they want more. On what merit do you deserve more? I’m a superstar, you’re a nobody.” @BoxingOnTNT

    He should be stripped in accordance with whatever advice they are giving him. I think Inactive Charlo has the same belt? It's bizarre. But these useless entities at the very least should do what they say they will do.

    SO they should provide the proper notice and do what they've said.

    As ridiculous as the Ngannou fight is, no he shouldn't be stripped without a mandatory challenger. It's on the WBC to set all this, not Fury.

    Imagine being this petty and cowardly. He is like a barking chihuahua. End of the line, still ducking and running scared.

    Imagine taking Fury's words at face value not understanding the various forms of mental warfare he engages in. He will mentally attack Usyk from all angles to find a gap...in this case the only gap is in his teeth. Fury won't be talking in the build up he knows it would be a waste of air so he's doing it early.
