    Tyson isn't retiring. He and Frank were like worms when pressed last night about it. Then again, Tyson has always carefully navigated his career. So if he avoided Price then he very well might avoid Usyk.

    Valid points. I think there's possibly 10 heavies who would humiliate him if he carried on.

    Fury v Usyk is just not a big fight for casuals, Usyk is considered boring. From a casuals perspective Fury v Whyte is more exciting than Fury v Usyk. It's a hard sell and tricky fight for Fury and I doubt it generates more than Ngannou who is a huge draw in America and Africa and Fury in the UK. Ngannou v Fury does 1 million buys in the USA alone with the right promotion. Regardless, Fury would be silly to turn down this sort of money for an exhibition while he lets the dust settle on Usyk v Joshua 2.

    Wilder still a firm favourite against any HW not named Fury and the clear no2 in the division. His draw against ATG Fury alone trumps any result the other heavies can boast.

    USKY still a feather fisted cruiserweight; went twelve with shot old ten losses delboy chisora and couldn't stop the chinny gunshy weightlifter.

    Obese Andy Ruiz took AJs cherry, made him QUIT on his first ever trip abroad, but AJ was only ever marketing bluff, had not faced one elite fighter, bought his alphabet belt off Charles martin who found it in a bin when fury dropped it.

    AJs best win on paper is taking prime joey twelve parkers 'O' over twelve. Aj somehow found another vacant title in the bin when he went life and death with the shot to hell old retired ghost of VLADD who hadn't won in three years and never fought again. Retired shot old name fighter, Classic matchroom fodder.

    Whyteleafe made his name with the mitchroom fans the same way as big josh, feasting on shot to pieces old name fighters: shot old delboy chisora, shot old Marius WACH, shot old alec povetkin, shot old Lucas Browne etc etc.

    Fury and Wilder will be remembered as this generations greats inside the ring. USKY left it too late to step up and hasn't beaten an elite heavy and doesn't look like he'll get the chance to now unless wilder comes back for one more dance.

    Big josh will be remembered by the sky addicts as the greatest since Muhammed Ali because Barry hearns and sons said so. And he was "THE A SIDE"

    Hearns and sons boxing legacy has been conditioning boxing fans to think and talk like boxing promoters. Packaging over content, narrative and marketing over what goes on inside the ring. Perfectly exposed last night when "arbitration, splits, commercial value, lawyers, avoided, resume" dillian, met a boxing great in the ring.

    Levels and levels and levels.

    Thanks Tyson, its been a pleasure to live through the career of a genuine ATG the likes of which we may not see again in my lifetime. Historic.

    The key is to retire before one becomes punch drunk; so you can't blame him on those grounds. All that it takes is one punch in sparring or in competition to end a boxer's life or leave them knackered.

    I agree with Whyte. He has been hit a lot of times. it's up to him but I would be getting out.
