Shawn Porter speaking to ProBox TV explained why he thinks Fury may call off the fight.
He said: “Even with the fight being signed sealed and delivered I don’t feel like this is the kind of energy that he wants to exert any more in the boxing ring.”
“You look at a guy like Tyson Fury, a guy who has been around this track so many times. I think that a fighter will get to a point where they see the hardest night ahead of them and they’re like, ‘Man, I just had so many of those hard nights, I am not going to have that hard night’.
“What we know about Tyson Fury is that he is a showman, what we know about Tyson Fury is that he likes things to be his way or no way.
Which is why he went after Francis Ngannou, because those are the kind of fights that he is looking for. He is looking for things that are going to give him the money and the recognition and the nights that he is not going to have to train hard for anymore.”
