    And Fury could just prepare for Usyk fight, while Usyk take hard and hard fights.

    The Undisputed should have happen long time ago.
    Fans are one of the reason people like Fury gets away with literally everything.

    This is not the first time Fury is ducking Usyk, it's the 5th. time actually.
    The fight could have happen before the AJ 2 rematch, and before Fury took on Whyte. Saudi was ready and AJ and Whyte agreed to step aside money, and the step aside money was from the Saudi, and not from Usyk/Fury pocket.
    Fury said he needs a warm up, so he fought Whyte. Then it was Chisora, then it was Ngannou ....
    Then he ducked the December date , and now February date. And his team is talking about a lot of time off ....

    Hrgovic is as about as good consolation as they come.

    The winner of Zhang/Parker after that would be great. Hopefully that would be for the WBC belt as well.

    Fury should be forgotten about imo. Usyk Should carve out the remainder of his legacy defending against tough heavyweight contenders and then retire. Fury is holding the last belt hostage and the WBC will do nothing to strip him. Prepare for more gimmick fights and ducking.

    Usyk should just never make a fight with Fury ever again. He is the heavyweight champ. Fury can go **** himself.

    It's s****, because if anyone deserved Undisputed, it's Usyk. And he is essentially forced to take on the best and young generation of Boxers, while Fury was fighting guys like Ngannou and Chisora ....

    Great post. I used to like the guy. All his fans can go and F themselves. Usyk has more than Ukraine behind him now.

    BOOOOOOOOO.

    I wanted to see Usyk vs Hrgovic. Now We don't get Opetai vs Breidis either?

    Ah man, that's a damn shame. Was hoping they'd at least elevated Briedis-Opetaia to the main event so we'd have some good boxing on that weekend. Damn.

    Yeah we won't see Opetaia - Briedis now. They may move it to the March 8-9 date though, so that is a good thing.

    Though the big question is, will IBF strip Usyk now ? They can very well do it.

    To be fair i hope Usyk just reject the fight with Fury, as this is a waste of time, and he already wasted a good amount of time for that fraud.

    In an ideal world we'd see Usyk-Hrgovic and Briedis-Opetaia added to the March 8th card. Course if it were an ideal world, Undisputed prolly would've happened long ago :lol:

    Very disappointing day in the boxing world.

    I think a win Vs Hgrovic would do a lot of good for Usyk's resume, great fighter to have on

    Just want to mention something that a lot of people missing. This is Usyk 3rd camp for Fury, and Fury keep delaying the fight.
    The first camp was in Turkey when they were supposed to happen in February then April last year, then December last year, and then this one.

    Almost a year just in camp wasted on that fraud. At 37 years old that alone can squeeze you out.
    Usyk and his team just needs to move on from this one.

    If the fight gets rescheduled a few weeks later it’s not the end of the world, Foreman got cut before the Rumble in the Jungle which caused the fight to be delayed by six weeks so let’s not be hasty this is the fight we all want over any other
