    Exactly. Which is why I did not lie.

    Can’t imagine that. Fury was bleating about inactivity all summer so I can’t see him going straight into an AJ fight.

    I think it's a bit odd he's stayed in the UK. I appreciate he's a very rich man, but seems quite late to be flying out to the US with only a few weeks left to go.

    For what it's worth, in the first fight I thought Fury would box beautifully but get knocked out cold.

    Second fight, I thought Wilder would complete the job he almost managed first time out - of course Fury made Wilder look like an idiot.

    This time, there's too many open questions.

    If he had Covid - big question mark there - is he affected? How serious has his training been? Is he distracted by his sick daughter? Has the inactivity taken an edge off him? Has Malik Scott taught Wilder how to box? Does Wilder really believe the crap he's been saying about Fury - if so can he control himself in there?

    For what it's worth I think Fury wasn't affected by (and very likely didn't really have) Covid, has been training OK until recent weeks distracted him, will be very rusty after an 18 month break, Wilder will have improved but will lose his cool when Fury starts goading him.

    This leads Fury to a late KO.

    Based on my track record, don't put any money on this though.

    I think the other thing to consider is Wilder won’t make the mistake of the heavy costume again, plus will have an eye on Fury’s loaded gloves.

    Looks like Warren is going to move his Oct 9 card as still no announcement. I think this is an indication that, Tyson is going to pull out. Hopefully I’m wrong

    I'm absolutely convinced Wilder stops Fury.

    UK to USA travel doesn't look like reopening.

    Fury will very much be the away fighter on October 9th.

    It can happen, but it would seem unlikely. Fury's got no quit in him. He would never quit like AJ did against Ruiz.

    Only way Fury gets stopped is if he's knocked out unconscious, or the referee stops him.

    The two planks will be piping up on Joshua's fight week and post fight as they've historically always done..watch.they can't sell this trilogy until the world knows what happens with Joshua.hence the bull**** postponements and other nonsense.

    So only 4 weeks and 4 days away from the big trilogy fight and still absolutely nothing in terms of promotion or news.

    Are they really waiting until after AJ vs Usyk to promote this fight? That only leaves them with 2 weeks and no change.

    Someone let me know if/when Fury flies stateside.
