  • Fury’s Autobiography will sell as many copies as his fights sell tickets – 0 – lol

    • Fury’s net worth is estimated at around $45 million. I think that some fights must have sold some tickets, no?

  • And yet they stopped this all important fight Lewis/Klitscko which wasn’t any worse. Go figure?? Future money? Who knows.

    • @Horio: what do you mean??

      Tyson’s wife Paris was at ringside during the fight (along with Tyson’s brother). She was also with him before and after the fight. Why do you think he left his family?

      • Because he wanted to see if you would react and give him the attention he so desperately craves. It worked

        • Thanks for the explanation. Anyways, it took only about 13 seconds to write a response, so no big deal :))

  • I have seen it before. For some magical reasons, the ring doctors become very flexible on their judgment, when an expensive fighter is in danger of losing a fight, due to an injury caused by a legitimate blow. It is like an invisible hand with a magic wand touch them, and after a bunch of tiny sparkles……..puff, they are different. Mostly happen when an unknown and cheap fighter is about to cause a massive upset.
    There have been many cases, like Edison Miranda vs. Arthur Abraham or Gatti vs Joe Hutchinson among them.
    So, I take this as a part of the boxing business (which I don’t care) and focus my attention on what I like, that is to see them fight. I wish Fury a speedy recovery and hope this is not gonna be a chronic injury
