    Fashion magazines purposefully make people feel bad about themselves so they'll go out and spend money on retail therapy, buying **** they don't need. Some are made to feel so bad they end up committing suicide.
    So, as you see, plenty of people are pro insanity because it's good for the economy.

    I'm no fan of Fury but hope he beats Wilder.

    British boxing in a great place right now.

    I’d really like to see Fury v Whyte even if he wind tonight as Whyte deserves a chance at Joshua before Fury, who is lucky to have this shot and will lose, IMO.

    Whyte already had a shot at Joshua, and lost.

    A long time ago and he’s come on a lot since then, beating some non-mugs along the way and waiting patiently while Fury has had an easy route straight into a huge fight.

    But Fury never lost his titles, he was stripped of them, technically he is an undefeated Champion.
    I was surprised he was able to get a fight with Wilder so quickly after his return, I will admit, and I cannot stand Fury, but you cannot say that he doesnt have the right at a chance to get his belts back.

    My gut feeling is that Fury wanted Joshua/Wilder ASAP before people realised that he is finished at the very top level. If he had another year or so with a few more of those "comeback" fights he had people would clock that earlier. Now he has a last payday if he loses and if he can win then he will get a shot at Joshua as well and all the riches that will bring.

    I wouldnt say that he was finished, he is only 30 ffs!
    People have won titles in their 40's before. This fight will tell us whether he still has the minerals to compete with the best in the division though I guess.

    Nah Wladmir had lost a couple bouts before Fury beat him. Though he had been unbeaten for over a decade when he lost to Fury.

    OK ... but then the guy who tiled my en-suite knocked out David Hay when they were both amateurs ... let me rephrase it ... wasn't Fury the first to take Wladimir Klitschko's title belts off him?
