    After all the talk, it's a rather disappointing fight. But considering it's the first of his ESPN deal, it's a rather good one.
    Rivas is easily among the top 5 Fury has faced.

    War Gypsy King!!!! Although I doubt he'll have to get out of 1st gear.

    This will be a one sided blowout, I'll be shocked if Rivas wins a second of this.

    Easy win for Fury if it happens. Rivas was being out boxed by Jennings for a lot of their fight before Rivas found the big KO, can't even say Rivas has much of a punchers chance, if Wilder couldn't put him away I doubt Rivas can.

    Be an easy enough UD for Fury. I thought Jennings was beating Rivas but then just capitulated. Rivas has pretty slow feet, isn't a great boxer. Certainly seems to have some grit and decent power though, he's not a bum at all.

    Said in the Brit forum that this would have been a perfect fight to take before the actual Wilder one took place.

    He is small and slow with very little movement, and little to no boxing brain.

    Its going to be a Tyson Fury KO win if he puts some meat into his punches

    This is not going to happen. Rivas will fight on the Fury undercard, against famous opponent TBA.

    Fury signed the dotted line. That's all that matters.
