Signs with Warren as expected

Looking good, lost a lot of weight just needs few fights vs nobodies to get that ring rust off and step the level up patiently.

Looking back at Fury’s past fights, if he reclaims his form I can’t see past him beating AJ and Wilder.

I think Wilder would have more chance just because he’s unpredictable. AJ has a punchers chance against Fury but can’t see him outboxing him.

Obviously this all depends on how Fury comes back.

have to disagree there, I've been thinking about this alot because Fury has this rep for being 'the complete boxer'... but Fury has been put down a lot, think people forget this, if he was that good, Cunningham wouldn't have put him down, and the rest... genuine question here, but other than how he dealt with vlad, who has he beaten than makes us all think he's this complete boxer?

Another thing that comes up is fury has this great chin, well hang on, again he's been put down a lot... now the reason Parker and others were saying AJ hasn't got a chin is because he was put down by vlad, and wobbled by Whyte...

thing is, you can't have it both ways...

AJ gets put down by vlad, the same right hand thats KO'd heavy weight out for 10 years, comes back and wins, but apparently has no chin.... Fury gets pout down by Cunningham, a crusier weight, gets back and wins, and people say, wow, what a chin..

its weird how people change they're opinion to suit when they are saying..

also, another thing...

AJ has beat, vlad, Takem, Whyte, Parker (I'd say those are his hardest fights)

Fury beat Vlad, and Wilder beat Ortiz, anybody tell me that Fury or Wilder have danced with harder opponents?

it appears that AJ has his haters, and they'd find anything to discredit him

If Fury can get back to his best and I think he can then he is more than capable of boxing circles round both Wilder and AJ and make them look very crude doing so.

The problem Fury will have that he didnt face against Klit is that neither will be as gun shy as Wlad was. Both are capable of knocking Fury out im not 100% sure Fury can KO either Wilder or Fury.

I think they are very interesting fights, if Fury doesnt get KO'd against either he wins on points IMO

I don’t hate AJ.

I don’t even think Fury is the complete boxer or that he has a great chin. I just think that Furys style will frustrate AJ. If Fury fights like he did against Klitschko AJ will struggle to get close to him, he’ll tire and overreach and Fury will take advantage. Like I said tho, it’s heavyweight boxing and one punch can be enough- AJ certainly has that and has a punchers chance.

I also don’t think AJ will have fought anyone like Fury, but Fury has fought many “typical” heavyweights like AJ, albeit few with AJs power. So there’s that to factor in.

Again, all this depends on how Fury comes back - if he’s lost his speed or more importantly his ringcraft - he’s fooked.

I still think Wilder is the tougher fight for Fury.

yeah Del, thats the thing, never seen vlad so gun shy vs Fury - to be honest vlad looka bit stale.. therefore making Fury look better.

don;t get me wrong I like Fury (as a boxer), I'm not hating on him at all, but like Del points out... you can see AJ hunting him down, I don;t think Fury has the KO power to trouble him in the later rounds, where as AJ does.

Wilder is a funny one really, I'l not sure what to make of him, I had him down on points vs Ortiz, and with no disrespect to Ortiz he's not Fury, or AJ, or even Whyte.

that said, I totally agree that AJ has never boxed a Fury style before, but he's past every test so far so why not vs Fury?

Eddie Hearn claims Tyson Fury contacted him last Tuesday asking to fight four journeymen and then Anthony Joshua on a 50/50 split. Next, he phoned Joshua and told him the same thing. The conversation ended with Fury sending Hearn a picture of his middle finger. [@IFLTV]

Good points, Tyson can definitely be dropped. Despite beating Wlad, Tyson still has a lot to prove. His biggest other win was what? Chisora? I'm delighted that he's back though, he's great fun.

Until we see Tyson fight three or four fights as Warren has said he will it's really difficult to make any kind of judgements on what he'll do after that.

Personally I have doubts that Fury will get back to the point where he's challenging for world titles again and in truth I'm not even sure that's his motivation for returning based on all his interviews I've watched in recent days.

Not sure i've ever seen people say Fury has a great chin, think its more that he's an intelligent enough boxer to be able to ride a shot if he can't get out the way. He's some way off fighting any challenger. Hopefully comes through the warm ups with ease and fans don't get fleeced.
