    Nothing you or I typed in reply to this chap was emotional - merely logical and cogent. He's projecting....

    Boxing24 Financial Advisor #1 sat there for 30 straight minutes today writing me three different essay responses to things I wrote yesterday.

    WBC ruined it with their corruption.

    & shot themselves in the face because Fury would earn more for them with that strap than Wilder ever has

    Fury isn't the one who turned down $100m to fight AJ

    He wasn't hesitant in the same way.

    Tyson kept feinting him.

    He showed against Joshua what he had left.

    I don't like it either, but Fury essentially just had his first pro loss.

    It is, for some reason, completely standard for boxers to take an easy fight after a big loss.

    It’s these multi fight contracts that guaranty a fighter a set amount regardless of the opponent that are the problem isn’t it?

    We haven't heard a squeak from Fury on social media since this was announced. I'm sure he's working on his next sob-story to get more sheep to follow him.

    Yeah, but ESPN aren't going to throw crazy amounts of money around for him to fight 5 lowly ranked fighters.

    They obviously have a plan in place.

    Ye i agree with that but without the contract there's no way he takes that fight, the purse wouldn’t be worth getting out of bed for(for someone like him). But Yano what how much is this fight getting discussed? For the wrong reasons but it’s keeping him talked about, that’s only just dawned on me, genius marketing from fury again?

    I'm too big a Fury fan to actually "like" this post, but there is definitely some truth to it and I did laugh at the imagined conversations. Its a setback to the division for one of the big 3 to be facing someone who is arguably sub top 50 in the division for his first fight in 6 months.

    Its very ironic that now Wilder is taking on the more formidable opponents in the division. Miller has the better resume than Big Dom, but I think Dom might beat him h2h. Either one absolutely brutalizes Shwarz.
