    But...Anybody else surprised how an already very confident man has turned very cocky and superior since the ESPN deal, and it's guaranteed/or at least forthcoming riches arrived? I mean telling a guy--Wilder--he needs to become a bigger public figure before a rematch seems patronising and insulting. A champion who gave him a shot without needing too- with Tyson now playing the big I am with a guy who gave him a reestablishing big leg-up back onto the world stage; helped him out big time. Sure a 2 way street and DW did benefit too--but the... 'I'm on the Ivory tower now pal hahal'... act to a guy who he mutually bonded and created a boxing stir... with to benefit them both, irritates me. Seems ungrateful, ungracious and classless to me. He wasn't so cocky when the rematch negotiations were near to completion or pre fight 1.

    The word they edited out is a 4 letter word for a male hen, that's all..with a Y added at the end. Also a phallic term.

    He nearly passed out against Wilder. He deserves to take an easier fight.

    Fury-Parker is OK

    Also he got robbed, so why would he fight against Wilder on Showtime/in America again? He shouldn’t make the same mistake what Golovkin made.

    Joshua-Wilder also avoiding each other

    Yes agreed--its more the attitude than the boxing politics that I find low. 'I'm set for life now pal'...let me act superior and condescending...and you go and do what ESPN say'..doesn't sit with me very well at all. Why didn't he get so supercilious last year and during early rematch negotiations? Sure it's the boxing biz, ...and snakes exist in all industries...but it doesn't mean I have to like and not be disappointed by it.

    OP you are very naive lol. Seems you know nothing about people. Fury has always been a liar. The great thing about his attitude is that humility he knows not but he will get beaten and knocked out within the first 3 fights and he will be humilted. Bigger men have fallen and I can't wait to see TyCon Fury laughed at.

    You rob a Gypsy dont expect them to come back and allow it to happen again. People should be grateful that those judges are not buried in unmarked graves in a field.

    Pays to not hold them to any standards to begin with.Fury is quite clearly a schizophrenic anyway.

    When you outbox a guy 10-2 and get a draw you need some insurance money to take the fight again.
    Fury has nothing to gain from a rematch. Wilder needs the rematch, fury doesn’t. Fury is sitting alone at the top of the division right now.
    Parker vs wilder makes sense
    Maybe fury vs the winner of Joshua big baby or ortiz

    Exactly
    Fury needs to get paid and that fight is wherever fury’s hometown is.
    Wilder needs the rematch more then fury.

    Fury obviously has now just turned like everyone else, business over legacy, money over giving the fans what they want. It was easy for him to play the role of the every man the underdog when he was the underdog but now he has serious money behind him and popularity instead of a near bankrupt Warren and a small but hardcore following he's sold out.

    I don't blame him to be honest, I'd do the same in the same position. But he can't now claim to be different to the rest, to not care about money to only care about fighting the best because now it's clear that's not the case.

    Wilder has a strap so the there is something for Fury to get in a rematch. I would have thought Fury would want, not necessarily need, a belt or belts.

    Fury who doesn't have any belts is not sitting alone at the top of the division.

    After thoroughly outboxing klitscko and wilder he is. One bad decision doesn’t take away from what happened in the actual fight.
