Another user wrote some motivating words for Fury, claiming Fury has the upcoming fight in his pocket. The comment read, “Come on king! You got this!” What’s more, most fans and pundits are confident about Fury’s win because of his extensive boxing experience. But there is always that tiny chance for an upset.
While others are confident Fury will take home the win, this user doesn’t share that opinion. The user commented, “Nganou will smoke you.” Even though the opinion is not popular, some people in the boxing world have shown confidence in Ngannou’s punching prowess.

Someone else voiced their frustration with Fury not fighting Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk. The comment from the user read, “Think ppl are getting fed up with you, to be fair. Fight Usyk and Joshua.” While the Usyk fight has been announced for later this year, there are no known plans for a bout with Joshua.
The next user was even more brutal with his words, as the user suggested Fury should move over to WWE because he would fit in there perfectly. The comment read, “Next, you should go to the WWE, your clown ass would fit in well.”
