    Some on here dont like to admit it but Fury is somewhat avoided. He is so big and can fight that he is not someone that any fighter anywhere near a title shot will want to face.

    Peter Fury has said he wants Tyson to have between 4 and 6 fights this year so that says that they realise if they wait to get a decent name it could be anther year of sitting round so anyone with a recognisable name that wants a fight will get one. They were looking at Fres Oquendo early last year and he has piped up so that is the kind of opponent im thinking they will have no choice but to go with. It would be unfair for a fighter who is still progressing like Tyson to not now be gifted some kind of warm up.
    Everyone understands he's not as good as he will be, but he talks so much trash, all the time, that some of the--US fans--just want someone to shut his mouth.
    I know the Haye episode has him frustrated, but he should let his team make some sure fire fights for him.
    Truthfully I think Haye or Thompson are not his best choices now.

    Hey, wait a minute. Why not Thompson? I mean, forget Haye. Haye's nothing but a blowhard, asking for title shots he doesn't deserve, and mysteriously dropping out of "Klitschko-less" fights.

    But why not Thompson? I like Thompson for both Fury AND Wilder. C'mon! How much longer are we going to wait until we expect both these big bangers to "shit or get off the pot"? I agree that Fury and Wilder shouldn't face each other yet. Assuming they both continue to develop and get a few more W's under their belts, there's a potential big-money fight to be made, with lots of fan interest.

    David Price tried Thompson twice, to his credit. Unfortunately, that didn't do much for Price's career. But that just says that Price would've gotten KO'ed down the line..... if not by Thompson then by somebody else.

    Thompson wants Fury..... Fury's handlers want to keep him busy..... no one else is available right now.
    So what's the holdup??

    What he said ^

    Can the bloody pond get any scummier? Just when you thought "stagnant" had a conclusion in its definition, the heavyweight division shows up.

    Have to admit I have no idea what the holdup is with Wilder.
    The holdup with Fury is that his handlers don't believe everything Fury says. They don't believe Tyson is the greatest fighter ever or a man and warrior beyond compare. They think that a fight with Thompson might be too heavy a load.

    Fury will get his act together and get back on track 2014 and will easily beat Thompson.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I'm not sure fat Mick will risk Thompson for what amounts to very little interest and money.

    Tysons plan was to get the small end of a massive purse fighting Haye, then pick up one or two fights with Chis & co. domestically, then retire and make way for Hughie.

    The only money plan Tyson has got now is to get Fat Mick to negotiate with Dodgy Frank and fight Chis, by no means a foregone conclusion. If he beats Chis again, all well and good, he can then make Klit overtures but fat Mick will definitely keep him away from Wilder, poor opponents or not.

    Got to hand it to Thompson, he's damn near retired one of our best 'prospects' in David Price and has the man who hid from David Price running scared.

    Fury wouldnt have had the trouble Chisora did with Chisoras last few opponents. Chisora has run his course progression wise.

    Chisora unlike Fury really has "no fear", can you imagine Tyson Fury lasting 12 rounds with Vitali? Del boy would fight Wilder tommorow, Fury wouldn't. Fury won't fight Thompson because he is too dangerous. After the likes of Haye, Scott and Vitali Chisora would have no such second thoughts and would actually be taking a step back to fight Fury.

    a fight against thompson would drum up a reasonable amount of interest in england wouldnt it?

    after all thompson did beat price twice furys big rival

    i think it would be a good choice for fury as i think he would handle him quite easily

    thomspon is very flattered by the wins over price
    Officially the only saddo who has had a girlfriend
