    Someone remind of the elite level prime heavies that this Connjob beat. Im rattling my brain and it sounds like a bean in a boxcar.

    Cooney should have fought more in the 80's, not sure why he didn't. I agree he probably takes it going by the clips on you tube.

    As a side note, Haye sends Cooney to sleep.

    If Fury beats Wladimir and Haye he sure is alot better then say cooney.

    Wladimir is an ATG and haye is a good fighter so shut up. Stop clinging on the the past like an infenctious disease. Move on and accept the future.

    As a side note the second Haye tasted Cooney's power he'd become passive.

    Cooney would stop Fury he leaves himself waaaay too open waaaay too often, if USS Cunningham who is not anywhere near Cooney's size or power put him down for that long Cooney would keep him there. Also Seamus says Fury is more ballsy, I disagree, unless you mean he is more stupid. Would Fury be able to put the same kind of performance Cooney did against a prime Holmes? I don't think so.

    Thank you for that, but I don't re-call making a point about Fury.

    so " Shut - Up " :rofl

    accept the Future, WHY?, because we live in it, because it's wonderfull colour, because it's so great?

    I'm a Boxing Fan, I like good & great boxers, it doesn't matter WHEN or Where they come from.

    and there isn't much in recent years to get excited about, Wlad is an ATG only because he is the 2cnd best S-HW, a New Division, Haye is a present great and I'm a big fan, but again the GIANTS should beat him.

    and Fury well he's just mediocre...

    nothing to do with TIME just skill level!

    If Fury beats Wladimir Klitschko I'll eat my shoes.

    Wlad would probably knock him out cold although it will be very interesting to see how Wlad reacts if Fury bum rushes him

    Yeah, I tried to put up an argument but you are probably right.

    Still, Cooney is overrated.

    Fury would be staggered early and then finished.

    Cooney knocks out Wladimir too
