    Lets not get carried away he rolled through a few tough journeymen. His range of punches needs developing and he's too reliant on his power right now. Once he gets a bit more confident with his craft that will come and he will be a menace. Fury is a step too far right now, he'd be too reliant on his strength whereas down the line with some experience under his belt he'd do a demolition job.

    That being said Fury might be the man to get under AJ's skin and get a bit more of a reaction out of him rather than what we get in interviews and pressers right now from all the media training he's had.

    Comon now, Fury is streaks ahead of this prospect at the moment. This is a non debate.

    A lot of anti-price comments on here but I don't think there is any guarantee that tyson beats Tony either.

    That and price would have at least a punchers chance against fury even now. He's a massive puncher and if Fury fights like an idiot again then I wouldn't be surprised to see him get his lights turned out

    I reckon Hughie Fury is the number 1 prospect, very natural in the ring, great footwork and throws good combinations lets be honest when hughie is matured into a man as he is still a boy, he will be a beast!

    Hughie reminded me of Ricky Hatton when he shuffled feet around Greer to work body. Excellent changing of the angles, Especially from such a big guy.

    Joshua is a poor mans Frank Bruno... His hype is undeserved as he didn't deserve his gold medal, but Brits of course are oblivious to that and continue to hype him as a "gold medalist" and the future of the division.... Now I won't be so quick to right Joshua off, but I don't see him as anything special. There are lots of questions about his chin, and at this point Fury would definitely knock him out. Fury unlike most British heavyweights has shown the ability to rise from the canvas and go on to win fights, this is really unprecedented!

    Give it a year or two and Joshua will be 100 % ready, you could tell on ringside he knew in the future he could beat Fury comfortably and he was very happy with how their spar went.
