Discussion in 'World Boxing Forum' started by sir axeman, Oct 31, 2017.


Will he face a credible top 15 opponent before he ca$hes in??

  1. No chance, he'll fight cans then try and con the public he's worthy of a shot

  2. He will come back looking awesome beating a top 15 before he takes on AJ/Wilder

    he goes to ca$h out with Wilder or more likely AJ ?? Or will he fight a couple of cans and be way over his prime fight weight then say he's ready and then Hearn/Franky will try and make out like this challenge with AJ is actually a credible fight? I predict he will fight nobody in the top 15 on his comeback before attempting a ca$h in for his pension money.......what says you?

    I don't think so, because there will be an element of the unknown regarding the toll his abuse and inactivity has taken. In the event of an actual comeback I think he'll fight a can then use the "I'm still lineal" line to justify the cash grab against Joshua in the summer.

    Honestly though until he weighs less than 300lbs I couldn't care less who he or his fans speculate will be his next opponent. His seesawing is a total bore now.

    He will fight someone just outside the top 10.

    He will fight Gary Cornish, go life and death with him and after a 1 round points victory claim he is the boxing messiah returning to his kingdom.

    He’ll have a warm up, which I wouldn’t begrudge him. He won’t go anywhere near the top 10 for his comeback. I can see him fighting someone like Dave Allen, who doesn’t pose much of a threat, but will give him a good workout.

    He'll fight Briggs in a battle of the freak shows.

    Well, money talks, but Aj did say he wanted to see Tyson fight his way back to fighting at his best before making that huge fight.

    The only way Aj will get any credit is IF fury looks great in an actual fighter, where fans claim he'd at his best.

    I don't know what fury does. .fight a former top 10 that's durable, can give fury a good few rounds but can't under any circumstances upset the sideshow gravy train before it gets him the retirement $$$ his family can live off for centuries

    If he does come back (I have my doubts), he'll have a tune-up or two but not against a top 10 opponent. Top 20 maybe at best.

    His tune-up for Klitschko was Hammer, so someone of that calibre would be the best opponent obe could hope for.

    Before even thinking about a win against the top 10, he needs to lose the top 100 pounds he must have put on...

    Fury needs 1 or 2 ring rust style fights prior to a "top 10" guy, but with the lack of depth in the division he may aswell jump right in to a Breazeale level fight, it's a guy who he certainly won't lose to but will give him rounds he needs.

    He doesn't need to work for the shot in my opinion. But he should work for the shot. Will he? Maybe. If they can make a quick easy fight with someone. But probably, what will happen, is he won't come back at all. Because he's enormously fat, depressed and might be addicted to drugs. Sad, true.
