We just got a little bit of breaking news Tyson Fury Alexander usk uh for all the marbles at Heavyweight World title has been rescheduled we have a DAT already May the 18th in Riyad Saudi Arabia that has come from Turkey Al Shake he has uh has just announced that I believe he’s actually

On uh the Ariel Hill Wy show as we speak right now uh so May the 18th that seems really really close to where we’re at right now given the magnitude of that cut absolutely but I tell you one thing that it does do though it keeps Tyson

Fury’s career alive and I’ll tell you why it keeps Fury’s career alive because he’s got a date to focus on and that’s the big problem with Tyson Fury when he’s got no Focus no direction in life that’s when he struggles you know not just physically but mentally and I think

That him having that date will do him good because it’ll keep him on track and then it’s all down to you know how that cut heals when it heals whether he can get the right preparation in and when he does get that right preparation in hence

Sparring whether it holds up but look at least he’s got the date that having to focus on listen man initial reaction to that great that we got a de great that we’re straight back in the in the mix of it all may the 18 does seem very very

Close to where we’re at right now that’s a nasty cut that we saw the from the pictures in the video that’s going to take a little bit of healing big fight like we’re talking about you’re going to need a proper count some proper sparring some proper

Work listen I hope I hope that we get it on May the 18 like you say it gives us all the focus it gives us all a little bit of pick me up after the disappointment of yesterday it just feels a little bit tight that date listen that date is really convenient

That they’ve announced the date so so soon to it being like the the date being devastated everybody’s upset INF furiated infuriated and and deflated that this um Undisputed heavyweight title fight is not happening so what did they do to come out of a date May what

Was it May 18th yeah take that of a pinch of salt they’re giv us something to think about they giv us something to talk about and to keep the dream alive and keep all the fans intrigued that date is something that’s been plucked out the air I think will be paid lip

Service because you can’t say May 18th because you don’t know what Fury is going to be doing now for the next two months and how that eye is going to heal it’s nice that they’ve got a date in the put it in there they still want it to

Happen but to be honest I don’t get excited when I hear that do do you do you not think though that you know that that could give Tyson Fury focus and I think that’s the main objective behind is giving him a date so soon I’m with

You Cole you know maybe that is too soon it perhaps also deflects the possibility of usyk going elsewhere you know he’s got a date in there so may maybe the temptation of going and fighting herich or something or or going in another direction is is taken

Away I think February the 17th is still going ahead though and I do think Alexander usk headlines that fight so I think that I do I do think I think oh absolutely I believe you got a date of May the 18th we I mean we saw this with

Tyson didn’t we he told us that after Inu I’m already going to fight December the 23rd and it didn’t materialize because of what happened in the inaru situation so why would he risk it why would he would be cuz he’s in shape and he’ll believe that he can beat any

Heavyweight in the world and he’ll go listen that date is great I don’t know if that fight is ever going to materialized from Tyson Fury because you got to look at the cut and how bad that is you know there’s a lot of you know ifs buts and maybe whever that date

Happens on the a so why would he risk the 17th on a fact on the basis that the 18th may never happen anyway unless unless he’s getting paid handsomely for this this fight in Feb 17th and he can fight a nobody if you like like a a journeyman type fight someone who’s

Ranked maybe just outside the top 10 and still get paid good money then I think what usyk will do he’ll fight a meaningful name I think he’ll take on a hugovic because he’s serious about the game and he’s 37 years old he’s not going to have a tick over fight a warmup

Fight I know the mindset I lost to Andre Ward I was offered an easy fight to to my my fight back on UK s and I took on I took on Lucian but because for me I needed a title fight I needed to be back

In the mix and I think usk’s of that same Warrior sparting mindset he’s going to want to fight someone like hovic is he ibf or is he the ibf CH number one so this is a big fight and a meaningful fight for us that he’ll be confident he

Can win and it keeps him in there then and if the if if Fury decides to retire between now and this this Phantom date that’s just been announced then at least he’s in the prime spot on the hot seat I like I said I take that date with a

Pinch of salt and I think usyk needs to stay busy with in in meaningful fights because he’s at the is he toward the end of his career at 37 years old as fresh as I think he is he’s still his mind is still going to be FOC focusing on

Maximizing the inor and and going out on the crest of a way at the end of his career he don’t need to take stupid fights but he can’t take he can’t take Jour fights now at 37 Cobra Cobra do you believe that that’s a realistic date February the 17th usyk versus Philip

Hergovich I don’t think herovic is ready for him in two weeks no herovic come out today and said I’m ready let’s do it I’m ready to go of course he is he’s going to get paid but I don’t think he’ll be physically ready he might say the fight

Does happen that’s what I’m saying the fight could happen and I think it’ll be a great fight for us because it’s so good name for him and I think he is far superior to herovic ovich is a good fighter don’t get me wrong and he’s he’s a big strong heavyweight we’ve seen him

Fight we know his capabilities but he’s not he’s not usk level
