    John Fury with normal boxing not for me, John Fury with this circus fits right in and I don't mind it, it's pure WWF promo type bits from the 90's

    Not surprised at all. The target market for that book will be empty heads like you Jim.

    Is there any evidence that this fight is, indeed, on?

    Lots of evidence. Doesn’t mean it’s on though.

    Exactly.
    I will believe it when I see it.
    I wouldn't be surprised if they are just using the Usyk fight to sell his gimmick fight with MMA guy next cos most fans had had enough of his nonsense.

    That is how I see it and the same with the mention of Joshua v Wilder.

    I doubt if Usyk's management would play along with that somehow. Although it does get Usyk out of a sequence of mandatories for a while at least.

    I've no doubt Usyk's management would not play games like that.
    But that's not saying Fury won't be stringing them along into thinking the fight is going ahead and then pulling out at last minute

    Fury wouldn't string the Saudis along, far too much money for that.

    I'm not sure about that.
    Think Fury might believe his own hype sometimes

    Dunno, he's incredibly respectful towards them, unusually so. He usually reserves that for terrible opponents he lines up like Whyte and Chisora.

    Even Hearn isn't claiming otherwise and that is a very positive sign.
