    I can't help being sceptical... I know it's early days but even the promotion for the fight seems to be very subdued. Maybe, it's just because it's not a match room fight.

    The furys track record aswell... but surely there reputation can't afford to not take the fight.

    But it's still only 60% likely for me...

    60% seems right.
    I'd say lower except Hughie and his father need a proper payday.

    Right now, 60/40 it happens, there always seems to be a problem with Team Fury these days.

    I imagine it's pretty likely that it will happen.

    Hughie probably just didn't want to go to New Zealand.

    If they pull out again, I'll be downright impressed with how ****ed up the Furys are.

    80/20. Team Fury can't afford to pull out of this fight. It's already going to be a hard sell. If they pull out again they might as well book a school sports hall for their next bout 'cos fans won't be willing to take the risk in buying tickets, booking hotels etc.

    This fight will happen.

    They get to hold it in their home town.

    Find Tyson fury very amusing and love listening to him (I know Hughie is the one fighting here )but it seems that team fury in general have cancelled a lot of fights recently but complain when it happens to them lol

    You're talking about the wrong Fury.

    I was 90% sure the first fight was not going to happen. He was extremely reluctant to sign the contract and never looked serious about going through with it

    I am about 70% sure this one goes ahead...

    He would be blacklisted from boxing if he pulled out again. David Haye did that trick 4 times in quick succession and was definitely blacklisted.
