    I hope to Christ Fury comes back in good form, the angles will give Joshua a panic attack :ciappa:

    I still have serious doubts that he'll make it to the ring on June 9th.

    yeah I'll believe it when I see it, but the recent news is a lot more encouraging than it was a few months ago. back then I thought no chance at all.

    Delaying the naming of Fury’s opponent must only be as to not affect ticket sales. It’s going to be a total stiff

    Would be very interesting if Joshua or Wilder end up uniting the title and Tyson beat them and became undisputed champ. As Hughie Fury said despite him and Tyson not being on talking terms because his dad no longer training Tyson that they are family and they would never fight each other despite it being a huge domestic clash.

    It seems that Tyson Fury is actually a bit serious about this "Shannon Briggs in September" nonsense.
    I just hope someone puts a stop to that.
    That would be a grotesque circus, not a serious fight back towards world title contention.
    I'd much rather see Fury v Ustinov or Fury v Wach even.

    Yet some people seem to think Hearn was lying when he said Fury wanted a ridiculous low level of opponent when they discussed a deal.

    I can see Warren using his privileges with the WBO which will see Fury get into a mandatory position very quickly no matter who he fights.

    He has yeah but he’s gaining a lot of muscle by the looks of things. Will he be as quick and fleet flooted with the extra muscle mass?

    I don't know, but I do know he said he had been working out with weights to gain more strength, at 6 feet 9 inches tall, he will have some real pop on his punches, he looks much more solid than he ever has.................

    Also you’ve got the stamina issue. Can you go 12 rounds with the extra muscle?

    He should be fine, its not like he's AJ muscley is it..

    The trouble with losing so much weight is, he would have also lost a lot of strength so strength now needs working on.

    I think it would depend on his overall weight. As long as he is training and adapting to the changes he should be okay.
