Tyson Fury put in a truly dreadful performance in live boxing tonight in Thailand but got the victory even though he boxed very badly.
It had meant to be a tune up fight for the Anthony Joshua match but if that happens or not remains to be seen.
Only around 1500 or so fans in Thailand attended tonight live for Fury’s 7th round victory over Mariusz Wach of Poland.
A bad fight and a bad boxing display from Fury, he looked shot to pieces.
Some options next if the Joshua fight does not happen;
1. Fabio Wardley — High-Risk Title Shot
- A win makes Fury three-time world champion in all UK fight.
- Both under Queensberry — easy to make; massive all-British stadium event.
- Hard-hitting, younger champion on the rise; dangerous and legitimate test.
- Quickest route back to a world title and legacy cementing opportunity.
2. Daniel Dubois — Dangerous Power Puncher
- Fellow Brit; major domestic event with massive punching power.
- High-risk, high-reward; some believe he has tools to beat Fury.
- Power makes him a serious threat but has been inconsistent.
- Fury’s experience/IQ could decide it; maybe too risky for a comeback.
3. Agit Kabayel — Undefeated Contender
- Undefeated, stopped last five opponents.
- Win puts Fury in line for a world title shot.
- Mandatory challenger and serious threat after wins over Zhang and Sanchez.
- One of the most in-form heavyweights; strong test for Fury.
4. Martin Bakole — Familiar Foe
- High-ranking contender; previously sparred with Fury.
- Logical “safe-ish” choice with enough ranking relevance.
- Tough and durable but lacks movement — plays into Fury’s jab/footwork.
- Solid comeback fight to stay active while waiting for bigger opportunity.
5. Joseph Parker — Friendly Rival
- Close friends and former sparring partners.
- Fury softened stance; would do it for Parker’s life-changing payday.
- Former world champion and respected name; fight fans would support.
- Lacks animosity but story of friends fighting for big money generates interest.
Other Notable Mentions:
- Deontay Wilder: Fourth fight lacks appeal but trilogy rematch still generates headlines.
- Filip Hrgović: Solid, high-ranking contender; no huge KO threat — safer option.
- Lenier Pero: Skilled southpaw; good tune-up for potential third Usyk fight.
- Frank Sanchez – Cuban coming off a big victory in the US over Richard Torrez Jr
Alas, tough to see if Tyson Fury fights Joshua next but let’s see if Fury fights on next or the bout he opts for at all.
