Cannot fucking stand Fury, dodging this fight on Feb 17th because he knows he’ll get battered by Usyk.

Hope the fight happens in May now but who knows with Fury the coward.

Problem with boxing more so then mma is they wont fight unless 100% fit.
Yea there's a few mma fighters the same (there's a lot that take a fight with very short notice) but by n large boxing died a death 10 plus years ago because of it.

Set a date.
And fight.
100% fit or not.
Bit of cowardice in the fight game these days.

Fight with a cut! what kind of nonsense is that.
 
Enjoyed the bill last night. Shame about the dislocated shoulder for Adam Azim's opponent, Enock Poulson. Ben Whittaker is undoubtedly gifted, and I suspect a future world champion. He came out with serious intention, last night, and all the better for it. Once he started with the play-acting, his performance lessened, for me. I am not a fan of it, but it gets people talking. He is some fighter - skill, power, movement and reflexes. Buatsi was a worthy winner, as was Caroline Dubois.

As skillful as he is for a big man (of which i admire) fury will never be like lennox.
Lennox was a master of smaller more technical apponents.

If he's got anything about him he'll study lennox against evander / tyson for the usyk fight.

Lennox Lewis is one of the most underrated boxers in history and now he is finally getting his dues . I just wish the Mike Tyson fight could have made sooner with him .
 
Tyson just bores me now. No doubting his ability but you get the feeling his heart isn’t in it as much these days and he’s going through the motions.
His shite in front of the camera has become very predictable and repetitive.
I’m not that arsed if he fights again or not at this point which is a shame as there was a bit of excitement about him in the past.

That cut could be a major problem for Tyson in May, Once you cut like that under the eye the scar can open up again and again, You can bet Usyk will target the eye straight away, Even using dirty tricks like the head to open it up.

Ricky Hatton had the same problem and everybody went straight for it to try and stop him

He has had more or less the same cut before, and it gets worse the older you get. Hatton had plastic surgery on his.

was that after he finished boxing though, Yep the scare grows longer and opens up so easy

what is it 12 weeks to the fight that's pushing when back in the training camp with sparring doing many rounds
 
Lots of people said Fury would find an excuse to duck this fight and looks like they were proved right. If he isnt fit to fight in May then he should be stripped of his belt and Usyk should fight the number two contender.
