Heavyweight Boxing

You’re back. Predictable as ever with your Fury nuthugging, and AJ slating! A little Fury alarm probably goes off any time you think he’s being criticised.

Keep on nuthugging, lad.

it’s nobody’s fault. Just Fury didn’t want this fight. That’s all.

be some craic if Charr got the win, eh?

might throw a sneaky score on that one!!

Nah, not salty. The poster takes it awful bad when he thinks the gypsy king is getting a raw deal here. Pops in and out every so often to stand by his man!!! Have to respect his loyalty, I guess.

I don't mean it at all in the he's afraid sense.

I just don't believe that this out of the blue offer, after all that is considered was genuine/sincere. Fury was just messing and spoofing. I have no doubt that Fury really fancies himself to do a number on AJ.

There are a fair heap people who think similar, that Fury was messing here, and had 0 intention of fighting AJ.

And that Charr was always plan A. It's far from illogical and silly to think this when you consider everything: before, during and now.

Issue seems to be that to think this or believe it has some Fury fans irritated/annoyed/upset. Simple, remove names and if this was the other way around, AJ would be the messer. Even Frank yesterday was trying to be diplomatic but pretty much shot down this utter unnecessary rubbish from Fury with the deadline.

And also, this whole affair seems to be driven by the boxer, Fury. Driven by and updated to us via social media by him personally. A mega fight does not get made/delivered like this. Hence why folks were, and are suspicious about Fury's reasons and motivations.

Fury the past weeks has been acting like someone high as a kite with all his ramblings, slaggings, updates, call outs, shoot downs, contracts, deadlines; and some here think it's silly to not buy into his offer to fight AJ on Dec 3.

A contract with a Fury deadline. And you aren't privy to the exact contract details

Your answer here is AJ has to sign, end of. That's not how these things work. Fury is the one issuing the contract. His team have to be ready to discuss, negotiate and compromise where fair. It applies to both sides. You then come back with "AJ doesn't deserve this, that the other." Remove a dislike for AJ, and view it as a contract to be discussed between two teams

He knew well that the chances of Hearn and team reading, digesting, analysing and then signing was going to be very tight.

so, why this Monday deadline if he was genuinely serious about fighting AJ? Not just me who thinks that was ridiculous. Frank even acknowledged this.

You’ll obviously come back with Fury needs his answer and he has to train blah blah blah. This is nonsense. He’s the boxer, yet it’s him issuing all this and updating and shooting it down now. He needed to relax, get on with it and leave the contract discussions to his team.

only a few weeks ago Fury was retired. Then suddenly he’s calling out everyone and their mother, and out the blue some nobody called Charr is on the scene. Some people seem to be deliberately not seeing this as a nonsense bluff.

Well, I think we'll agree to disagree. Let's hope between Fury, AJ, Usyk, Wilder, Ruiz and Joyce we get some fights before end 2023...

I thought it was common knowledge they met in the amateurs

Joyce is much better than he was against Usyk in the amateurs, his boxing has improved and he’s much stronger and over 12 rounds he would have more of a chance

Yeah I didn't know that they had ,not saying Joyce isn't better I think he is much improved as he seems to land a bit better with his output now and better in the ring in general, I also think usyks tank isn't as good as it was then, still 12 rounds isn't an issue for both I'd say

I still think usyk skill wise edges it

Re fury / aj , I really think they were trying to out bluff each other an neither really wanted it,I hope at least 2 top fights happen next year instead of the usual shenanigans

he was getting a very generous split for a guy who lost his last 2 fights, a title shot too. He should have signed whatever terms they were considering the split he was getting. Oh hes a business man as he says, no hes a fool not to sign or maybe hearn is in his ear that 3 losses on the bounce his career is over. I think you might be right about dazn not wanting their face of boxing losing 3 in a row though. If aj was a warrior as he says,he wouldn't listen and he would have directed his lawyers to just sign.

Yes, just sign there lads. Eazy peazy!

Have either Hearn or Aj stated they have problems with the contract ?

eddie will want a cut of the biggest payday for his cash cow

Aj will want his biggest payday

they are both yes men for those that own them - dazn

rushing a fight if this magnitude was never going to go smoothly and nobody knows what’s going on so blaming anyone is purely hypothetical

latest update from fury

He seems obsessed with belittling AJ. Odd behavior. Weeks at belittling AJ and belittling Usyk.

This from a lad who has been all about being nice and watching your mental health.

So, the deadline (again given by Fury) is end of today? Fury claiming all ok with DAZN as well

Best we heard two sides here before being ready to believe or make a call.
