How stupid for Frank Warren announcing the fight.
There are rumors being tweeted back and forth that Tyson Fury's management has backed away from having Fury fight Kubrat Pulev in the IBF final eliminator.
If true, this is very unfair, because Pulev has been waiting for many months.
Pulev vs. Chambers next?

Abdusalamov is PRIMED for a loss....the guy is a puncher....for a Muy Thai fighter, but for a heavyweight he's nothing special and his defense sucks...he never moves his head....EVER. I would put Wilder or Banks or Mitchell or Hanks....any of the Americans can beat him.

Fury wanted to fight Adamek. Adamek refused. Adamek now is trying to get a fight with Fury- very much. Fury doesn't want the fight at all. I think Fury would beat Adamek and it would be a big win for him.
Fury is one fight away from fighting for the title, he will not risk that against Adamek, Haye or anyone else.
bit of a different venue from Hughies first two fights. Its good to see him being very active though.Quote:
