I haven't issues with Fury fighting this guy.
Yes we know that but is there much point in having a warm up against a guy you expect to get rid of in a round? He needed someone durable to get a few rounds with. This fight is obviously just for Warren to showcase him but its not going to do Fury any good
He might even end up toying with this opponent like he did with Rogan, pissing around going in to southpaw the entire fight like Rogan was nothing just to get rounds in. Dont forget it is just being used as a warm up and not as some other fighters have used Basile for as a step up in competition
