Trust me , Fury needs at least one belt. That way he can still say he's the champion and nobody took the belts in the ring and he can earn good dollar.
If he has no belts, especially if he doesn't lose them in the ring, he will become the chairman of the "who needs him" club. Why would anybody fight him? What's to gain from fighting him?
Example , would Joshua fight him? No. Hearn has already distanced Joshua from a Haye fight unless Haye has a World title.
Would Haye fight him? Probably yeah (we'll agree to disagree on that.)
Would Fury fight Haye? No. He's already said that because he thinks Haye is a cunt. Understandable, but not very helpful.
Would Wilder fight him? No, because he doesn't have a title, therefore he doesn't bring the money, high risk low reward.
Who would want to fight him?
Dining out on being "the man that beat the man" won't last that long.
Btw , none of this is a criticism of Fury, it's just the way it is unfortunately.
Well believe it or not I dont think its going to be long before Tyson is THE money man in the division.
I see his star building like Mayweathers. Although even Mayweather needed 8 years of world title fights before he became a pay per view fighter!
Tyson I think is now alongside Klitschko the most well known Heavyweight among casuals around the world for various reasons. What I mean by that is Haye and Joshua sell in Britain but put them in America and do they draw the same? Wilder v Fury would sell more than Wilder v Joshua or Haye in America.
HBO are airing a show about Tyson next week http://www.boxingscene.com/tyson-fur...gumbel--100541
People are just cottoning on to how good and interesting he is. Hes brought this to their attention himself as im sure you will agree Henessey has not put the promotion behind him that both Jishua and Haye have had the benefit of. I used this phrase alot previously regarding Tyson but people could not see the wood for the trees.
