Good job I'm going out tonight

Yeah.... I had hoped it was a late April fools joke. This sucks.
Fury saw Ustinov is in good shape, and got scared.
Well there are plenty on here who think if anyone pulls out of a fight with fury then they are scared of him , so fury must be scared of Ustinov.Quote:

Well, that's fine. The words Fury pulling out can do nothing but benefit the next generation :-X
Disappointed. Does the sick uncle play a big part in his corner? I could understand the move if he does.
Fighting an opponent he didn't train for, plus his corner changing.
Very disappointed, Fury could have won this but do not think he was in great shape and mentally not prepared. Heavyweights are fat lazy slobs who can get by in second gear.
yet more damage to british heavyweight scene
Fury is a right cunt! ;D ;D
It's a different uncle who is sick, not his trainer Peter.Quote:

I don't know if I remember any fighter in a big fight making it through the weigh in and then pulling out.
For fucks sake I just watched the video of the weigh in yesterday and fury taunting Ustinov.
right I've been out most of the day and as of yet haven't read anything since early announcements
has Fury straight up bottled it ? I know we don't know truth but it does seem weird
I read Warren earlier saying it wasn't looking good for his uncle and that it was his trainer ??
Looking more and more like he backed out. Disappointing.Quote:

Its hard to understand because a few have the name Hughie in the same family and also more than one family member/ uncle has trained Tyson.Quote:

When the Chisora bout was called off it wasnt Warren ramming Ustinov down the Furys throats as an alternate opponent, it was Peter Fury who went to Frank Warren and said that Tyson wanted to fight who could Frank muster.
A dying family member isnt a cut eye (which Tyson himself fought with in his last bout).
I still believe Tyson wanted to fight and that he had the better of Ustinov. Peter is the reason behind Tysons success lately and if Peter is bedside while his brother is fighting for his life he isnt going to want Tyson risking his career going in with no trainer against a fighter so vastly different and more dangerous than the original scheduled opponent without a calming hand at the helm.
I'm no fan of Fury and think him somewhat a tool but the dumping on the guy at any opportunity gets a little thick. He's not the guy that started this. It was Del Boys last minute bail out. I think its a stretch to suggest that he would be afraid of that three toed sloth because of his size. Unless Fury got cocky and sloppy as the fight drifted into the later stages this would be easy work for Fury. The only thing the guy had over Fury was weight. As long as Fury didn't try to hard to dent that cromagnon skull he would have been fine.
It could also be true that he went ahead with Chisora even though his uncle was sick because it was to late in the day to pull out but when it came down to it even after accepting the late sub and going through the motions at the weigh in he had a genuine change of heart and just maybe his family became his priority and because of that he simply could not get up for the fight.
Warren has said it was The Furys who asked for another opponent just to fight. He offered Ustinov and they bit his arm off. Not Warren forcing Ustinov on them.Quote:

You do not go through with the weigh in, taunt and tease a giant simpleton and then back out THE DAY OF THE FIGHT.
Only Ken Shamrock against Kimbo Slice comes to mind for a guy doing something like this the day of the fight. Ken claimed he got injured training that day, but I think fear got the better of him.
Probably got the better of fury here too. The fear of losing, the embarrassment and loss of immediate big paydays perhaps more so than Ustinov himself.

Whether you like Fury or not he deserves the stick.
If his opponent pulled out claiming a family member was ill he wouldn't give a shit, he'd be all over twitter/the media calling him a shithouse coward and letting everyone know he'd fight with no eyes and broken arms.
If you can't take it don't dish it out. Big shithouse.

I think he'd have lost
Any word on his uncle? Sounds like he's unwell but stable (still).
So you can be reasonable when it comes to withdrawing from fights?Quote:

I'm inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt but if you constantly taunt and try to humiliate oppenents that have to withdraw you have to expect it back in return.
Occasionally fighters need to withdraw from fights for reasons other than fear, maybe Fury will remember that in future.
I agree he will take stick. How can he not? Justified or not.Quote:

The Furys are a close family and this happened the night before the fight. Hughie (the uncle not Peters son) was in intensive care potentially on his death bed.
This wasnt something that had happened weeks or even days before giving everyone time to settle down and recover.
I will also say though that if his uncle and old trainer, (this is the man that was in his corner for the original Chisora bout and its also the same man who is Peter, Tysons current trainers brother) is genuinely fighting for his life with a blood clot that its not something that you would entertain doing to yourself to help your nephew get out of a fight.
Tyson may or may not have wanted to go ahead with the bout regardless that his uncle may be dying but I doubt very much that Peter would have left the hospital to be with Tyson and Eddie rather than stay bedside during what could have been his brothers last moments alive.
All I know for sure is that Tyson has had a frustrating, pressure packed year or so trying to get back into the ring. I would not want to be the opponent he finally gets a chance to vent against!
Good luck to his uncle.
Peter Fury has been back on twitter over the last day.
"Big respect to all of you on here. My brother is still critical in a coma" due to lack of Oxygen to his Brain. By his side every day."
"@danielmiller30 my brothers life means as more to me than my own. My brother comes before any fight. We would quit boxing to have him back!!"
"@smoggie1994 blood clot went to both lungs & lost oxygen to brain for 13 minuets."

There have been some shamefull comments regarding Tyson over the last week or so.
This is his old ainer Hughie.

Joey abels trainer said the same thing and we know how that fight turned out.. Fury might just not be to comfortable in these public situations.. He looks pretty confident in the ring to me, so I don't read too much into these thingsQuote:

I'm glad this is an old thread. I thought it was about Peter Fury saying the fight still isn't signed over the weekend
