Fury doing his usual bluster at the press conference, I think it really annoys him that no matter what he says to Usyk he doesn’t get a rise out of him.
Under no illusions we’ll see a different Fury to the one who fought the MMA guy.

I wonder if this was the situation with the Ngannou fight

It was supposed to be an exhibition

Ngannou is looking pretty good in training decides screw this in going to go for it.

Fury leaves it too late to train properly and ends up looking silly.

Basically he got screwed over by FN who's seen the opportunity to really raise his own profile.

Could this explain why it was sanctioned at the last minute?

We will see a different Fury for sure he's fighting for everything this time round. If he'll do it.

Yep great performance from Azim looked calm and on point and even in the later rounds still looked dangerous.

Bit of strange end to the next fight, Italian corner getting a bit animated.

Why?
I guess, I’m a Tyson Fury Fan.
He went overseas to Germany to beat Kiltschko for the world title.
On his return to the UK, ok he said some silly things, and got a lot of grief from the press/media.
He took a two year sabbatical/binge.
Gained a lot of weight.
Came back.
lost a lot of weight
Had two warm up fights.
Then fought and beat WBC heavyweight champion, Wilder, three times.
When no one wanted to fight Wilder.
Unbeaten.
And I think, no one can beat him.
Politics and AJ losing his titles, put a stop to that fight.
But now, in three months time,
He fights to unify all the titles.
No one can beat him .
Just a few reasons why I want him to win.

I for one cant wait for Fury to lose and id love it to be Usyk. Fury deep down isnt really a likeable guy once you realise all the stories are very suspect. Plus his Dad is just one big idiot

I also think AJ was a Fraud/Not as good or nice as a person all along and now we see his true colours.

HW division is poor compared to many other era's.

Alternatives id say now Bare Knuckle seems to be growing fast, no one ducks each other either.

What has AJ been doing that shows his true colours ?

Bare knuckle seems a great alternative.

I did say, he said a few silly things.
Perhaps I should have also added, he did a few silly things too.
he could be slightly tainted with the failed drug test.
Which he served his punishment.
And since then been clean, and passed all tests.
And I did say politics, and AJ losing his titles, stopped them from meeting up.
I wish they had fought, before AJ loss to Ruiz.
That was when AJ was at his best.
He certainly didn’t dodge wilder.
Fought him three times.
And won.

Well, one draw and 2 wins against wilder but I'm splitting hairs there.... I think you need to do your homework on the time periods involved in the nandralone detected in his system PRIOR to the Klitschko fight... And I won't get into his refusal to be tested on a different occasion too. a positive test before the wlad fight (which in my opinion should null and void the result anyway) then his shameful refusal to rematch him (him and the rest of the world knows full well what would have happened in the rematch) and his squirming out of various other fights including Joshua (not "politics") ..... Well, if that's not enough to throw tonnes of question marks over him without going further then fair enough ... 3 fights with deontay wilder does not make for a legend.... Joshua manned up and got straight in with usyk..... Look at the bks we've had out of fury to resist getting in the ring with the same guy.... I still won't believe Feb 17th will happen until the bell goes... He didn't fancy fighting Klitschko in the rematch after signing for it.... He found some very inventive excuses back then ... I'll be surprised if we don't get more over the next few months

Null and void?

Some teams are just better at hiding use that is all.

Mate, it was proven he had nandralone in his system on the run up to the wlad fight..how it was kept under wraps I'll never know ... So are you saying that a positive drug test before a fight should just be ignored and the contest should go ahead?

Klitschko would undoubtedly have been using as well so it would have been a fair fight - I am not interested in the politics of who got caught and who didn't.
