Fury signs with Warren Boxnation/BT Sport
All over Sky Sports news in the last 20 mins so has Hearn/Matchroom reeled him in?
Not like Sky to promote or even show anything to do with BT Sport or any other rival.

Re: Fury - BIG announcement imminent
Ok so it was just Fury saying he's got some "Amazing new deal done and dusted" he's dying to tell everyone but he can't just yet 😂

Re: Fury - BIG announcement imminent
Tyson Fury, the bigger dumber David Haye

Interesting. My hunch is announcing Shannon Briggs as an opponent.

Re: Fury - BIG announcement imminent
Fury will announce he is pregnant to explain why he has been so fat.
-
Re: Fury - BIG announcement imminent
Hard to tell shape he’s in with coat on and stuff but certainly doesn’t look as big as he did.
Long long way to go though to be ready for the Joshua’s Wilders etc..
Hope he gets there

Re: Fury - BIG announcement imminent
Tyson Fury challenges Anthony Joshua at something totally outside the boxing ring – as he ramps up trash talk in a bid to build and land a fight with him.
Maybe this was it? ;D

Re: Fury - BIG announcement imminent
Will someone tell that fat f**k to get his weight down, keep training and get back into the ring before he mouths off?

Re: Fury - BIG announcement imminent
Fury is manipulating the media to his own advantage, keeping his name out there @Master nothing more ;)
Really don't like the look of his new "Trainer" either, looks like a wannabe who as i understand has no real CV of any note.
Would love to see Fury with Ingle, Booth or McGuigan.

If his mate Saunders has joined Ingle and looked brilliant he should try it too.

Re: Fury - BIG announcement imminent
So it looks like Fury has signed with Warren.

He was signed by Warren the first time when was champ and he hates Eddie. I guess a fight with Haye/Bellew is off now?

Re: Fury - BIG announcement imminent
Fury is rumored to return on Jun-9 on the Flanagan/ Hooker card.

Re: Fury - BIG announcement imminent
His big announcement is that he’s lost half a stone

Re: Fury - BIG announcement imminent
I just hope that when he does fight, it’s against someone that at the very least, we’ve heard of.
It’s all right saying he’ll be rusty and the like, but hey, he was a World Champion in his last fight, as he keeps telling everyone.
Definitely no excuses for an Eastern European taxi driver.

I'll be surprised if it's anyone decent, gone are the days of returning against a Quarry or Sam Peter after a long layoff.

Re: Fury - BIG announcement imminent
I think he just wants to retain some media attention, whilst carefully negotiating his way through a few 'comeback' fights, he has every right to trade off his ex world champ undefeated record, but I fear his ambition now is to subsidise his wild boar and cocaine lifestyle by media stuff, obviously including celebrity get me up the jungle and a televised weekend away with Sally Bercow, or maybe a god spot, what was that program called on Sunday evenings?

Re: Fury signs with Warren Boxnation/BT Sport
TYSON FURY has agreed a deal with Frank Warren to fight on BT Sport and BoxNation, with June a proposed date for his comeback.
Fury has not fought since 2015, when he beat Wladimir Klitschko to take the heavyweight title.
He is expected to fight in Manchester this summer to end his long spell out.
And the deal is a huge one for Frank Warren and his team, with ESPN reporting Fury's comeback could take place on June 9 on the undercard of Terry Flanagan vs Maurice Hooker.
Fury has been working hard in recent weeks to shed weight ahead of his proposed return, despite announcing his retirement in 2017.
The former heavyweight champion had his licence suspended by the British Boxing Board of control (BBBofC) last year, after he admitted using cocaine to help with depression.
Fury posted: “Been very blessed in my life & career achieve the upmost in boxing, was a epic journey along the way,”
He added: “Thanks to all the fans that supported & believed in me along the way. Hope you enjoy [sic] it as much as I did. THE END.”

After 3 years out and having to lose so much weight he isn't going to wade into the deep end just yet, and a first fight gimme I think is quite understandable.

Re: Fury signs with Warren Boxnation/BT Sport
I know, you’re right. But I just don’t like the way that my/our intelligence is insulted by the “Ali style” hype/bs and they will want big bucks for knocking over a tomato can in a glorified spar. It’s not just aimed at Fury, but he’s the one saying “I could beat Joshua NOW” and “I’m only into big names” yadda,yadda.

Re: Fury signs with Warren Boxnation/BT Sport
irrelevant, one-hit wonder (... and the "hit" was a lousy one at that)

Re: Fury signs with Warren Boxnation/BT Sport
Couple of days ago people on twitter were betting 80/1 (Skybet) that Fury breaks Joe Louis title defences record (26) because that's what he was saying his goal is.
1. He currently doesn't have a title to defend.
2. In ten years he's had 25 fights, never averaged close to three fights per year, so at the current rate they're betting Fury will beat AJ or Wilder then go unbeaten for over 13 years.
80/1 could be 80,000/1

It's going to be on an undercard so it's not going to be anybody credible. He'll probably want to get a few rounds in too. Maybe his second fight is a main event against somebody half decent. I would guess it'll be somebody in the WBO top ten but without looking I bet half of the WBO top ten are people we don't know.
I looked it up:
1 Alexander Povetkin (International) RUS
2 Dominic Breazeale USA
3 Jarrell Miller USA
4 Dillian Whyte JAM
5 Tom Schwarz (Int-Cont) GER
6 Kyotaro Fujimoto (Asia-Pacific) JAP
7 Bryant Jennings USA
8 Zhilei Zhang (Oriental) CHN
9 Agit Kabayel GER
10 Christian Hammer GER
Five, six, eight and nine I've never heard of. Fury against a German is probably what Frank will go for.

Re: Fury signs with Warren Boxnation/BT Sport
Fury to announce his comeback fight tomorrow

Re: Fury signs with Warren Boxnation/BT Sport
Warren making bad judgement again (the most expensive option) of our piss poor heavyweights, its a lottery out there! Every promoter wants a heavyweight due to the piss poor standard, Hatton has blown out with Lardarse Browne, Sauerland has blown out with Price, who will be the next to fail? Laughable.

There are plenty of heavyweights out there to choose from and they do not have to be that good. Dubois is the next contender. Warren will have a production line of them.

I doubt it'll be Schwartz or Kabayel. Fujimoto looks an easy mark.

Re: Fury signs with Warren Boxnation/BT Sport
So, it’s official! He’s fighting in Early June against that durable Journeyman “A.N.Other” ! Current holder of the TBA & TBC Titles!
And in another Ground breaking announcement, Team Fury have announced that Trees are Green!:rolleyes:

Nope watch the presser, old fish eyes says "I'm pleased to announce that Tyson will be fighting Johnson" right about the minute mark it Is, Tyson flashes him a look as if to say "why the fuck did you say that"
-
Re: Fury signs with Warren Boxnation/BT Sport
I never saw that on the presser video earlier and Warren doesn't mention any opponent in the post presser chat with IFL TV either, says it'll be announced soon.
Weird that BT Sports or Boxnation haven't been mentioned at all today either and Warren said that the TV stuff will be revealed next week.
Hope Fury hasn't insisted on an MTK Global youtube platform:-\

Re: Fury signs with Warren Boxnation/BT Sport
Long time out Warren seems to be on the up Fury is one more to his stable of fighters Frank is a clever operator more interest in the HW division.
I agree cant see him fighting AJ as Sky are not going let Warren or BT have a joint promotion so even if Fury becomes No1 contender and it goes to purse bids I think Hearn and Sky will win that one. !!!!!

That guy is Croatian.... Is everybody from continental Europe German to you?!?.
Fight was only stopped due to a bad cut, so joshua is still the only guy to properly clobber kingpin :S

Re: Fury signs with Warren Boxnation/BT Sport
If it’s Johnson, I would accept that first back. He’s getting on , but has got some know how.
What really tickles me it’s that some people on here might criticise this fight, but mention Briggs as a viable option. Fucking clueless.:rolleyes:
