Don't care. He's a muppet.
Just hope he has a warm-up fight first / vs a b-level fighter. Just to get his timing back and back in the swing of things. Then have a big clash later in the year with Wilder
He provides great entertainment. End of.
Fury's cousin, Hughie, is expected to challenge New Zealander Joseph Parker for the WBO belt, also in May.
The date and venue for that are not finalised but Tyson tweeted revelation suggests they could both be on the same bill.
------------------------
Could be, as he hasn't got his BBBOC license as he, might take a few months to get it back so could fight a randomer on the hughie/parker undercard, get in the swing of things, then apply for his license again. Then a summer clash with AJ/Wilder

He's had enough time out now to be able to pass the drug tests.
Can't stand the bloke but there's little doubt that he makes the heavyweight scene a bit more interesting. Especially if he goes after Wilder or AJ.
Does Klit still have the right to a re-match?

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Why would he want a rematch? Fury won't hold any belts again for 9 months. Klit will probably be retired by that point.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
To right what he will see as a wrong? Avenge the defeat?
Klit held belts for more than a decade, he's only got a short period of time to try and even the score with Fury. Wouldn't surprise me at all to see him go for Fury.
Have you seen the pictures of him, he looks like Tony soprano
All the talk of mental issues was a massive cover. Apparently he failed drug tests but he got an injunction against UKAD from making the ban public. Allegedly. Don't trust these Furys. All this 'we're real fighting men' is a load of bullocks.
Would rather him box again than Mr 2.0
Fantastic news
"Keep my belts warm guys as they belong to the king. Whoever got my belts I'm coming for you! Big or small."
What's the likelihood of his suspension being lifted before then?
every hw knows who the real champ is, Joshua, wilder and parker can claim to be a version of the hw champ but until fury gets beat(if he comes bk) he's the real champ

Fury PR team have played a blinder here. It seems people are happy to forget that he failed a drugs test.

--------
no ones forgot about his test but its not like he failed doing something which was performance enhancing i.e. povetkin, I think that's why people will more likely turn a blind eye to that
Great...
Again his PR team played a blinder. He was first suspected using a banned substance:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/boxing/36952299
A few months later they found cocaine in his blood and he used this as his depression reasoning so people forget the earlier charge.
weren't they allegations though? I cant remember bk now but were they not followed through on?
Boxing is a very lazy sport when it comes to drugs. So many loopholes to avoid drug tests and charges. If you look at the body of some boxers it is clear they are on steroids.
In Fury case it was alleged which got delayed as he took the legal route before they found coacaine and then he was sectioned off.

Agreed. The cocaine was the 2nd test he failed iirc
Both Tyson and Hughie Fury were caught using Nandrolone.
Can't stand him, was hoping we'd seen the last of him. But then, about half of the boxers out there aren't particularly likeable characters - I still don't understand why anyone would lavish any praise on the despicable human that is Mike Tyson.....but people like to turn a blind eye, because he was very good at hitting people.
Fury isn't all that exciting in the ring for me either, but you can't deny that he's box office, and brings something different. I can see him coming back, and getting back to a decent level. Maybe he'll get to the stage of fighting Wilder.....then a potential unification against AJ? Or is that unrealistic thinking?
