Tyson Fury’s chances of becoming a three-time heavyweight champion in 2025, 2026 or 2027 look bleak after his recent loss to unified champion Oleksandr Usyk last week.
If Fury is going to have any chance of becoming a world title shot, he needs to make some drastic changes to his lifestyle and his training methods. First, he must be locked in a asylum type training camp where he has no way to get to the kitchen.
Dark Ages Training
His current trainer, SugarHill Steward, must go. He should be dumped and replaced by a throwback coach from the dark ages.
He needs someone who will torture him for four solid months to whip him into shape with non-stop training and exercises that make him want to throw up afterwards. He obviously didn’t work hard because you always look as fat as he does when you put in the work.
He will need a Grand Inquisitor type of trainer to roll back the years and bring Fury back to his 2015 vintage form. Someone who will put him through a living hell, push him to the breaking point where he begs to stop, is the ideal solution to restore him to the vintage Gypsy King that defeated Klitschko in 2015.
Fury is so far gone, living the life of a rich millionaire, that it may be too late even for a sadistic throwback trainer to fix him up. Like many rich athletes, he doesn’t want to work as hard as he used to.
The way ‘The Gyspy King’ performed against Usyk, he would be fodder for IBF heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois should he choose to go that route in a bid to become a three-time world champion in 2025. Fury’s strike resistance is gone after 16 years. in the pro game.
We saw Fury’s eyes roll back in his head when he was hit several times in his rematch against Usyk. He didn’t get hit as much because Usyk mostly boxes him, but if he takes on Dubois, it will be bad for the old Gyspy King.
I don’t think Fury will escape the first round because his chin is no better than Anthony Joshua’s. Dubois obliterated poor AJ last summer on September 21st.
Yes, Fury is rich, but he’s still ambitious and driven, and he’s going to want to win another world title so he can tell the fans, ‘I told you so.’ He needs to win a world title for validation and to prove himself to all the doubters who see him as washed up.
