    I don't think there are 24 HWs in any era who beat this 42 y/o Tony Thompson. I don't think there are 15 who currently beat him.

    A top 25 HW is not a tuneup or a stay/get busy fight.

    Thompson would be a good fight ending a 3 fights in 6 months type run. Harrison, Bydenko, Thompson.

    That would be a good little run before making a big fight vs the likes of Wlad, Adamek, Wilder or Stiverne/Arreola.:think

    fighting a 42 year old thompson who is coming off a shut out loss is pointless.
    it will prove nothing.
    he needs to fight a Perez or Solis

    He also hasnt been in the ring since April. How bout a few tuneups. Boxing is 90% mental and Tysons got to be experiencing some mental fatigue following the missed opportunities chasing the $$$ fight.:-(

    funny how you think andre ward sucks, but a 42 year old thompson is some kind of dangerous animal.
    Thompson in his 30s was painfully slow and telegraphed all his punches....his biggest career wins are against unproven david price and joe average heavyweights like Timur Ibragimov, Kransqui. the only real dangerous guy he fought was wlad and was knocked out 2 times by him..... thompson is an average heavyweight in a terrible era

    I just don't subscribe to the triangle theory.

    Ward<Froch<Bute<Ward.

    Is what it is:deal:deal:deal

    It is ashame when a complete bum Leapai is getting a title shot and Fury is know where near a shot and he has already beat some top names. He beat kingpin with complete ease and kingpin knocked out Leapai. Leapai beats a untested tomato can in Boystov and not gets the honor to dance with Grabimir for 12 boring rounds.

    Fury's been offered title shots since he beat DelBoy.

    Fury don't want to make 500K and lose to Wlad when he can make 5 mil and have a chance vs Haye.

    Don't make this thread of Wlad.

    Leapei beat Boystov but it doesnt make him the better fighter. Denis lost his hunger and was partying hard the past 2 yrs. Not saying he was special, but he too woulda beat Johnson if he fought him 2 yrs ago.

    Boystov may actually become a better fghter from this.

    As of now, do you have an opinion on Fury, and if he should be coerced into a fight with a top 20 or if he should tuneup a few times and shake off nearly a yrs worth or ring rust????:think

    British chin, lack of skills, too easy to hit. He doesn't fight boxers with real power. I think following names will beat Tyson Fury at this stage :

    Wlad
    Pulev
    Povetkin
    Haye
    Perez
    Thompson
    Solis
    Arreola
    Ruiz JR
    Price
    Stiverne
    Adamek
    Ustinov


    50/50 fights:
    Wilder (who ever lands the first punch)
    Browne
    Teper
    Chisora
    Leapai

    Show me some proof where Fury turned down fighting WLad?? Boystov will not become a better fighter because he never was. I'm sick of hearing all these damn excuses for Boystov. Boystov has not proved nothing in boxing. He just gets hype on this forum because he is white and from Europe. He was being groomed to be Wlads next easy fight. Leapei ****ing sucks and Wlad should not be fighting his at his old age. Lewis was fighting Tyson, Holyfield and Vitali when he was Wlads age. Wlad is just trying to pad his record and make easy money. That is why he fights in Germany. That is one of the only places he can sell this **** fight.

    Comical, Fury beats most of them! Give him 5 more solid fights and I 100% think he will be a world champion. Price and Thompson are no where near good enough to step in the ring with Tyson Fury.

    Are people forgetting that Thompson was offered the chance to fight Hughie Fury on the original Haye vs Fury undercard? The Fury camp clearly feel that he is a limited fighter, who is a test but a win for a 19 year old talented fighter who hasn't got that many rounds in the bank.

    People need to consider that Fury is coming out of retirement.

    The man retired after the Haye fight was cancelled for the second time. He should spent the next year or two easing his way back into things if he decides to come back.

    'Limited" is a weasel word if ever there was one on these boards, the way it is used.

    Fury is much better than fans realize. Wilder is a fraud who has never fought anyone even nearly ranked at all. How did Wilder get ranked #3 WBC$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ without fighting for it? Let's see Wilder fight a ranked fighter to ear his shot. Wilder appears to be hoping that he will simply be given a title without ever fighting for it and his mandatory will be a Sconiers rematch...........

    First off what they hell does this thread have to do with Wilder you little spammer you. One thing I like about you is you don't care where a fighter is from as long as there white. Most Euro race based posters bash white fighters as much as black if they are from the USA or the UK. So I have to give you credit. You are the most commited racist on the site.
