That fight was a 3 rounder, that doesn't mean shit.

Fury knew coming into this fight that KJs only chance at victory was catching him with a counter R hand. He took several hard L hooks, but I didnt see him eat a R hand all night.

And KJ.....all fucking class in that interview just now. Pure class.

Good performance overall. Fury could have tried harder. He was successful with uppercuts.

It's proven it is very hard to look good against Johnson.

price should shut up and fight some decent boxers...price glass jaw will be soon exposed! he was rocked a couple of times on amateur level...and without any head protection a ko is only a matter of time.

bad defense + glass jaw= ko

Fury fought a disciplined fight. You don't do that if you're an amatuer, or poorly trained boxer. Klitschko is going to decapitate him, but in this fight he had a plan, he stuck to it, and he won. End of story.

furys glass jaw already exposed by a featherfisted gypsy with a less than 20% ko rate. fury has no chin. price is much much better.

Overall, this was a big step forward for Fury's development. A world class operator should beat Kevin Johnson without much struggle, but KJ will beat the lesser guys.

Tyson's starting to look more and more like a legit heavyweight every time out. It's clear he's putting the work in to get better. I'd like to see him in with a top 10 caliber fighter next.

That isn't really true anymore.

The efforts that Johnson put in against Tor Hamer and Tyson Fury wouldn't even be enough to get a hometown decision against a Zack Page in Atlanta. He doesn't have anything to offer anymore.

That's a good point.

- But it doesn't really change the fact that Fury still has huge holes in his defense. I guess the positive thing is that this is one of the skills that can be vastly improved with proper training, and Fury is still young.

But I don't see him changing how he throws (telegraphs) that right, and that's a big flaw.

Tyson did well tonight i dont even think prime Lennox knocks out Johnson.
