    How would that work? He's 3 and I've been working in PR for nearly 20 years. He won't even know what the initials PR stand for.

    Very strange advice.

    I don't think so myself. Fury is an inigma at times. He's a giant and yet can move like a middleweight. There's not been many of those throughout boxing history. I think any boxer would find it a challenge initially to work out just what they were up against.

    Fury has another advantage, if he gets brain damage, nobody will be able to tell.

    I think that the promoters should arrange Joshua v Fury and then cancel it at the last minute, giving the full purse to Joshua and releasing a statement saying "There was no need for this fight to take place. The result was never in doubt."

    Then they could have a rematch, cancel the fight and give the full purse to Fury, issuing the same statement.

    Not only that, but throughout his fight with Klitschko, he continually switched between Southpaw and Orthodox stances, depending on what Klitschko was doing. ****ing hell. Even Ali didn't do that.

    Disclaimer: I am not suggesting Tyson Fury is a greater boxer than Ali; just stating a fact to back up the assertion that he is an incredibly intelligent fighter.

    I proper loved it when he had his hands behind his back against Klitschko. He's got a lot of personality and mental health issues but you have to smile at what he can do/does.

    Tyson is quite frankly a freak, the world has never seen a 6 foot 9 giant move like he does. I think he makes easy work of Joshua, his skill set is on another level to Anthony Joshua's.

    Not to mention he has the genius that is Peter Fury in his corner, the man who came up with the masterplan that Tyson used to beat Wlad. And he executed it to perfection.

    Don't for one second think that Tyson Fury can't also box on the inside and have a tear up, you look back over the years he's proved he can certainly stand toe to toe with a man. I'm fascinated to see what Joshua's team do with him, you come in built like that and you're going to be blowing after 3 rounds. (Like he was). They surely can't be happy to just rely on Joshua to catch every opponent he faces flush on the chin and stop them, you have to be ready for 12 rounds every time you get in there.

    Fury beats Joshua for me, I thought that before saturday and now I'm even more convinced of it.

    You are aware that he won the last fight in the eleventh round?

    Did you watch the fight?

    He barely threw a punch from rounds 6-10.

    Pacing himself.

    I hope, for the good of boxing, Joshua tears Fury a new one.

    <laugh> Yeah he wasn't absolutely ****ed at the end of the 5th or anything, he was simply pacing himself...

    How would it be for the good of boxing for a convicted drug dealer to beat the lineal heavyweight champion of the world?

    I think Fury is very under rated by many, but I think Joshua destroys him.
