    Fury will easily beat Cunningham.

    Pulev though is a different story. I'd give the edge to Pulev but it would be a good fight.

    Adamek dropping out caused all this but the IBF should have Pulev face someone now for a final eliminator or just make him mandatory.Being forced to wait around or having to fight in a second semi is bull****.

    Fury will never fight Pulev...... if he's gonna take an ass kicking it will only be vs Wlad for a big payday, watch him avoid Pulev and get a Wlad fight anyways

    Fury will not beat Pulev, and he sure as Hell won't beat Vitali or Vlad. Doubt if he will be able to beat Arreola. Arreola is better than he was, can punch very hard, great chin. Fury will have his hands full will all of them.

    So will Fury finally take a risk and fight a top contender such as Pulev? He won't get a mandatory title shot by beating guys like Kingpin and former CW Cunningham.

    No risk no reward.

    you're actually right...arreola would shatter fury's chin, he almost got KO'd by featherfisted Pajkic

    True, Cunningham should of taken Adamek's place since he deserved the decision and Fury was never in the running. Now Pulev has to wait around doing nothing. Its a load of bull****

    I agree it sucks for him. The IBF could have (and should have) simply declared Pulev mandatory for Wlad after Adamek pulled out, like they did with Thompson after Chambers' injury.

    Pulev a big threat gets lowballed but easy win TT gets sent straight up to a mandtory postion in the same excat case. K2 have these sanctioning body's in their pocket. its undeniable.

    Fury is still a kid ffs. I just don't see him needing to move along so quickly.

    I like the idea of fighting top 20s, he's really building a fine resume so early on in his career, but vying for a title fight before his 25th fight it wholly unnecessary, especially considering his age.:huh

    Why not?!
    At this time he can still blame his age/maturity when things go south, and still make a lot of money. I rather see him try and fail as him taking the Wilder route.
