It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
Poor Steve
This one seems to have really hurt
I hope he's just trolling now

Usyk v Fury rematch set for December - Saudi official
Undisputed heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury are set to meet in a rematch on 21 December, according to the chairman of Saudi Arabia's general entertainment authority.
Usyk beat Fury by split decision to become the first undisputed champion of the four-belt era on 18 May.
A rematch was said to be in the works for October but Turki Alalshikh says the date has been pushed back to December.
"The world will watch another historical fight again," Alashikh added on X.
"Our commitment to boxing fans continues. We hope you enjoy it."
Ukrainian Usyk, the first undisputed heavyweight champion since Lennox Lewis in 1999, added Fury's WBC belt to his WBA, WBO and IBF collection when they fought in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia earlier this month.
Alashikh did not name a venue or destination for the rematch but stated it would take place "during Riyadh Season".
The contest would give Briton Fury the opportunity to gain revenge after tasting defeat for the first time in his 16-year professional career against Usyk.
It is unlikely that all four belts will be on the line in the rematch with the IBF planning to strip Usyk as he will not be facing its mandatory challenger next.

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
They should forget about undisputed after the next inevitable fragmentation. Pointless

I think both boxers need time off to rest and recuperate. Just hope Fury does not bloat up in weight and stays in control.
The December date is a reasonable and allows them to get back to their best again.
Some of the titles will go but it does not matter as these are the top 2 boxers in the division. None of the title holders can claim to be a real champion.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
It was a really good fight and it deserves a rematch. Both guys will think they can make adjustments now and win.
I can’t help thinking that boxing will cock this up though, and the titles will be fragmented (though if they do that it really will prove to the public that title belts are meaningless as Usyk and Fury are so clearly the very best two heavyweights around at the moment), or Fury will pull out/postpone, fail a drugs test or do something stupid!
If God wanted us to be vegetarians, why are animals made of meat ?

But the real question is which bandwagon are you gonna jump on this time?
Are you gonna go off the top board and hang on Fury’s nuts now you’ve said that he didn’t try hard enough and even alluded to the “big fix”
You basically said he gave up, so are you backing him again?

Could come round a bit quicker than we think.

Fights on the doorstep of major Holidays can always seem iffy. Massive travel weekend too. In the big picture six months is a long time, especially for Fury imo. But in the spirt of Christmas and with the gift of giving in the air I wonder if ol Turki and the boys will slash a ppv price and slap a bow on it. Not too worried about the belts because we all know is top of the food chain at the moment. Good to see them both centered on the rematch though and looking forward to it big time.
Yep me too. Hope Fury can motivate himself one more time. Wasnt there a fight last year week before Xmas? Could become a traditional new fight weekend like first in May and mid November used to be.
This time I'm 60-40 Usyk. Fury going into a fight without the mental edge over an opponent. New territory.
Will John be told to watch the fight from back home in Morecambe.....
