    Crazy - no end to his talent! <laugh>

    Do you know the relevance of the song he sang?

    His young 18 year-old cousin, Hughie Fury, stopped his opponent as well! Looks a good prospect.

    He just likes singing I think.

    I watched thing during the week. With the uncle and cousin and Tyson interviewing one another. Really interesting stuff. Hug hie has a great amateur pedigree.

    I thought the fight was terrible... very amateurish!

    I have a great dislike for the modern heavyweight division, no real skill!

    Also, no way Cunningham is a heavyweight.

    Cunningham made heavyweight, so he's a heavyweight.

    He got robbed in his last fight at heavyweight against a ranked fighter. It was a clumsy win for Fury but a good win.

    I once had to box at Light Heavy even though I was only 11 and a half stone.

    Needless to say I got beat.

    He must have squeezed into the weight for the fight...

    A good win in terms of profile and what you explained in the other thread - yes.

    Good win in terms of performance - no.

    He made good on his prediction tho.

    Would him and Haye fight? Or would they have to weight (sic) for one to win a title?

    who would win?

    Fury thinks both Klitchko's would vacate rather than fight him. In which case Haye would be fairly high up the list of contenders to fight for it. Haye would win if it happened but I reckon Pulev will take care of Fury first.

    Both Holyfield and Haye were blown up cruiserweights and didn't do too badly.

    And as I said on the other thread it seems silly to defend what was clearly not a great performance, but it was entertaining.

    What you see with Luke Tyson Fury is what you get. I don't think anyone would claim that he is a great boxer - not even himself. He's a scrapper, is willing to take punishment but has a good chin and believes that his fighting spirit, size, weight/strength and ability to hit hard is enough to overcome opponents. Fair play to him as far as I'm concerned and I'd like to see him do well. He's entertaining and I certainly enjoy watching him. Besides ... he's a Celtic fan!

    Wtf ?


    Tyson Fury is a boxer on his grannies side . The fact that such an untalented one dimensional fighter has risen to the top of the heavyweight division just goes to show what a lack of talent thete is in that weight

    One dimensional Tyson Fury boxed wrecklessly against Steve Cunningham, cagily and carefully against Kevin 'Darkie' Johnson and southpaw for the entire fight against Martin Rogan.

    Martin Rogan had no intention of trying to win that fight.
