Just realised there's a big fight on Ch 5 tonight. Anyone any views and/or likely to watch it?
 
Jobs a goodun.

Technically and stylistically very poor fighters.Both stand square on,Chisora throws singles shots,Fury throws punches in bunches albeit very inaccurate and without much power.
A bit of an odd spectacle to watch,and i hope for Fury's well-being and health he never steps in with either Klitschko.
 
I'll go along with that. Lucky Del Boy's fight with Klitschko got cancelled.
 
I too am a Boxing fan and saw the fight last night. Fury was techincally superior to Dell Boy but I cant stand Tyson's cockiness. Like Haye, id quite like to see him come unstuck :)

I thought Khan did very well against Judah. The lower weight classses are clearly benefitting popularity-wise from the lack of quality in the heavyweights and I reckon Amir Khan vs Floyd Mayweather will happen sometime next spring possibly at Wembley stadium and it will be a humdinger. You heard it here first :)
 
I've never seen anyone so relaxed as Fury though. Some cocky boxers are hypish but he just looks so laid back you wouldn't know he was in a fight. He did start to show a bit of respect when Del Boy caught him. There was one attack from Del Boy late on that reminded me of a kid fighting in the playground, almost embarrassing. I can only assume, from watching that fight, that Fury is not a powerful puncher and would not last long with K or Haye.
 
Fury was easily the better man, and most of the fight Chisora couldn't get near to him. Hope he doesn't fight a top class boxer like Haye or Wlad next, it would be far too early.
 
You got the impression that Del Boy came in expecting an easy enough ride. His physique was far from ripped so I suspect he didn't train overly hard for it. Considering he was scheduled to meet Wlad recently you can't blame him too much for feeling this fight should have been a lot easier and a considerable step down.
 
I'm not a great fan of boxing, apart from the big fights, but to me Fury would be a no hoper in the big league and Del Boy was exposed as the pub fighter he appeared to be at times in the fight. Is that the best we can come up with in this division?

Yes thats the best the UK can offer at domestic and European level(DH excluded).Though David Price is coming through,hes still a very robotic and a bit one dimensional.
Thank god for Amir Khan.
