    He grew on me a long time ago, at first I thought he was just a big goofy gimmick (come on, "Tyson Fury?") but he is actually very likable, very entertaining, can fight, and doesn't have a padded record

    He's got an awesome name:lol:. That's all I know.

    I think Fury wins easily stopping him within six if he boxes clever.

    He is entertaining for sure, I find his personality hit and miss, but I guess I want to watch him not have him round for dinner...

    He can fight, punch with a suspect chin, makes for excitement. Will he become a world champion?

    Not a bad test for Tyson and a decent substitute. Abell was Ko'd in Rd1 Vs Arreola, however took Pulev 5rds in his last fight.
    Of his 29 wins, 28 of those were by KO...

    The best 'character' we have had in British boxing since Eubank and Naz?

    Really hope Fury goes all the way.

    Boxing needs characters, especially the current HW division, and he's definitely a character.

    When fury had a interview with Sky on ringside when he was in his training camp in Cannes, he come across real humble for the camera relised theres abit more to Fury than his big mouth. Great for British boxing i say..

    Thanks for replying,I was just curious.Hope this Abell fight comes off.He should have been the original opponent.Agree as to the result,I think Fury will be fired up for this.

    arreola stopped abell in one. fury will stop him in a couple, unless abell gets lucky and lands on furys china chin.

    Always been a fan. The Steve Cunningham performance impressed me. Would david price have got up from that shot?
