    Love Fury's style and personality. If this guy can win the title, he can become an Ali like popular figure. LOVE FURY.

    Pulev would also outclass Fury. I think Fury has a big problem when someone with the same heigth/reach fights him. His team also sees that and that is why they ducked Ustinov. He should have fought Ustinov yesterdag in stead of glass hearted Hammer.

    ustinov quit after eating a few jabs of pulev, he could of fought on. ustinov is ultra slow, ponderous and easily beaten by fury.

    I never thought I'd see the name "Fury" and the word "serious" in the same sentence.

    Fury is not good, he had to cheat to beat Steve Cunningham who is a tiny guy and leveled him

    Yes 6'3 210lbs is a tiny guy with bucket fills of speed and good skills. The same reason it took wladimir 12 rounds to stop chambers and couldn't ko David haye. What would you suggest fury do against an elusive faster fighter. He did what he should of done, mauled the smaller man.

    Size has become overrated. The old timers didn't see extremely large fighters as being particularly good. Along comes Wladimir Klitschko and Lennox Lewis and Vitali Klitschko who were large and exceptionally athletic for their size, Wladimir Klitschko in particular. Now it's generally believed that all very large fighters are likewise when they are not. In the near future we'll probably see the extinction of the dinosaurs and the return of the Holyfield-sized heavyweight dominate champion.

    Ali on his worst day was never half the douchebag Fury is.

    ...and he could be a douche.
