    Even if Fury 'ducks' him, doesn't mean he wouldn't likely beat him, just that it's a risk he doesn't want.
    The thing is, Fury has clearly gone into safety mode with his career, and he'll pay a price for it, but that's different to not being capable of beating these fighters.

    A perfect example is Wilder 3. Fury didn't want that fight, and rightly so in that case, having been robbed and so actually having won twice, and it's always a big risk fighting Wilder. So he tried to get out of it. Did that mean he couldn't win? He ended up being forced to fight and won the fight. But we also see why he didn't want it, because it was a risky fight he took damage in.

    All these people acting like Joyce is a hero for fighting Zhang, wake up. Joyce is almost forty and only recently stepped up. Fury fought Wlad at 26 years old and signed to fight Haye at 25 before that. Joyce is one of the most protected and risk-avoiding fighters EVER.

    Joyce also cherry-picked Zhang after the loss versus the Croatian. He thought Zhang would gas. It backfired and then he had to rematch because he'd lost his position and they thought with all the advantages they might get across the line. There was no real choice but to rematch in his circumstances. It wasn't about 'picking difficult opponents'.

    What's the point of Boxing if Fury's fans just claims he beats everyone in the history in fantasy matchup, when in reality he is ducking every single top fighter with a pulse.
    Also if he is to gone into "safety" mode there is a reason for that, aka he knows he ain't as good as his fans is telling us he is, and he as well.
    The only reasons to ducks fight is, cause you know you won't win them.

    By your logic Boxing should be closed and we as a fans will make fantasy matchups and decide who the best Boxer is.

    There can’t be a duck without a legit offer. “Calling someone out” doesn’t make a fight. Offering market value (or above) is how to make a fight if that’s what you want.

    Can we mark your word that Zhang’s promoter will make such an offer?

    It would be nice wouldn't it.
    I used to like Fury, but now i can't stand his BS and the way he carries himself of as the best yet refuses to prove it, i can't even be arsed watching any of his interviews any more.
    The man has turned into what he calls his opponents, a ****ing shithouse.

    Zhang promoter is Fury promoter casual. Warren promote him now.
    And Zhang Fury is thw biggest fight outside of AJ and Usyk. And there is a offer to stage the fight in China. And this is coming from Warren mouth. There is an offer for the Fury fight in China, but anyone with any sense knows that Gypsy will duck Zhang.

    It will be interesting to see what would happen if China puts up a huge amount of money to stage the fight in China. Would Fury do it or not? I'm talking 75-100 mil +.

    "Wlad will beat Fury"
    "Wilder will beat Fury"
    "AJ will beat Fury" (now a none entity)
    "Usyk will beat Fury" (Fury will crush him for $100m)
    "Joyce will beat Fury" (now a non entity)
    Now it's "Zhang will beat Fury"

    Heard it all before.

    Dude lost to Hurgo & got chinned by AJ in ams.

    There will always be "another guy" for Fury who he "needs" to beat...it's funny.

    Zhang needs to make sure he doesn't lose over the next 12 months whilst Fury & Usyk do their business or he'll be another AJ.

    And I dont want that wilder shyte
    Hes in hiding again but with out a belt to hide behind
    Your better than that
    I never thought wilder could beat fury
    Hence the draw made me think
    Then fury just upped the gears and pressure
    Wilder is shyte

    Knock Knock.

    Fury: Who's there?

    Zhilei Zhang

    Fury: Err, I'm not in. *sound of backdoor slamming and tyres screeching into the distance.*
