Whens Fury next out?

28th jan richard towers

 

hasn't he had some personal issues? wasn't his kid seriously ill or something?

more importantly, any news when eubank jr will be out next?

 

last i heard, will try and find out

 

Seriously, I thought Fury left that "class" of opponents behind... but Pajkic gave him quite a scare recently so it might be true.

 

He's going to need a good year at least fighting the likes of Towers, Pajkic and Firtha again before he even thinks about stepping up again. he's a massive KO waiting to happen unless he sharpens his tools.

 

Firtha and Pajkic are miles above Towers in class... it would be 2 or 3 steps down imo.

 

He's not fighting at MSG since Fat Mick doesn't have a promoter's license there.

 

Im sure he'll be eating plenty of tins of celebrations over xmas time the fat *****

 

maybe Alexander Povetkin.

 

this made me laugh for the bluntness

He is only 23, why go for the big fights until he is 25-26, have 5 learning fights a year for two years and then push on

 

Fury/Towers is a fun fight.

 

Agree. Fury isn't ready and should be in no rush to fight the "elite." Let him milk some fights on Channel5 for 12 to 18 months - maybe 6 or 7 fights - against decent opposition who will test him. By then, the landscape could look very different. Vitali might be gone, Wladamir maybe on the way out, and Fury would have much more of a chance of picking up a trinket. As of now, he is no way near ready. Don't push him.

 

It would be good if it was along the lines of this-


Jan - R. Towers (Tall unbeaten fellow prospect)

Mar - T. Fields (Tall big punching journeyman)

Jun - M. Barrett ( A list journeyman stiff test)

Aug - S. Peter (former world champ)

Nov - D. Guinn (former contender, never knocked out)


These would all be winnable fights, and leave him with a 22-0 record..
