    Fury should have been champion by end of 2018.

    Bellew is now so far in AJ's crack I don't think we will see him again.

    He is in deeeeeeep, real deeeeeeep, if you see AJ walking around, you'll see Bellews feet sticking out his backside.

    I find the way Bellew cheerleads for AJ actually a little disturbing, if I was AJ I'd think about restraining orders just in case.

    Liked as this alt post aged fantastically.

    Although I'm one to talk as I remember making Price a favourite against Tyson due to his power advantage, Olympic pedigree and that Fury seemed reluctant to face him for the British title.

    If you cast your mind back I think Bellew was trying to sell a fight with Fury because he was going to be step 2 in a similar rehabilitation program to that which Warren put on with Seferi and Pianeta.

    Fury would've been fed some Matchroom fodder prior to a big showdown with whatever Bellew had left in the tank, then he would've gone into the AJ fight with the Sky customer base engaged in the rivalry.

    As things turned out, Bellew moved on to talking up Usyk as his farewell fight and, to be fair to him, he boxed well and made it a good watch before the inevitable gulf in class told. I hope he never gets greedy and tries a comeback, because that night was a fitting and lucrative capstone to a career.

    I don't think Bellew would've been so eager to face the guy who destroyed Wilder, he's usually been quite clear on how good Fury is at his best.

    To be fair after the McDermott fight most people would have picked Price over Fury.

    Mad when you look at their respective career trajectories after.

    I was trying to figure out why I wasn't too keen on Aj and it isn't because of AJ himself

    Aj is actually a very good bloke, but the rubbish from Hearn and especially Bellew puts me slightly off him

    Exactly, just like when he used to post on here he knew Haye was far too much for him, but was understandably happy to face the shot crippled version

    Fat 400llbs, fresh out of the kebab shop Fury would have manhandled him.

    This thread is absurd looking back....

    because AJ isn’t AJ and your 6th sense is alerting you to that.

    deep down he is a media creation, he is really ‘big femi’, known drug dealer and drug enforcer.
    Intimidated single mothers in protection rackets, dealt drugs to children. Fantastic boxer though but a disgusting individual who is also a racist to boot.

    The sadder fact is he used to be exactly the same way... For Price.

    Whilst this wouldn't surprise me, where's the evidence of anything other than he was a small time weed dealer and bit of a local bully boy?

    Well Dillian's only past is murky as hell as is Team Fury. John and Peter have both been in serious trouble with the law in the past for various crimes.

    Peter was a well known and incredibly successful drug lord for a long time.
