    Tyson Fury is the least coordinated boxer I've ever seen.

    Jeez, the Fury bashing on here is reaching epic proportions!

    Is it only me who can see Fury's talent? I mean, he moves exceptionally well and is well balanced for his size, so much so that I don't believe I've seen any footage of any boxer over 6'7" who moves as well or has as good stamina.

    Least co-ordinated ever???? Come on, you actually DKSAB. He boxes pretty well from either stance for multiple rounds against top 10 guys and he's got $hit balance!?

    :patsch

    You said he is well balanced then say he is $hit balanced? How many boxers are there over 6'7"? All he had to do was show up. He fights bums. Quit d1ckriding.

    Canelo trained under nacho would be a true marvel.

    I'd still consider him one of the more naturally talented fighters though.

    Rocky Graziano hardly had any training before turning pro. He deserves a mention.

    Martinez comes to mind. Canelo has pretty good technique, when you say natural I look for guys that get by on physical attributes.

    Only guy who's more clumsy I've ever seen is Nicolaj Valuev. Tyson Fury makes a good #2 on the oaf list.

    Nope you are not the only one I agree with you Fury actually has talent. How many heavyweights today can say they know how to switch, have an inside game, know to use distance very well and have a very good punch verity.

    Freddie Mills became light heavyweight champion with the worst technique that I've ever seen in the ring. It's truly appalling. He makes ballroom brawlers look like Floyd Mayweather.

    Nah, re-read if you're confused.....
    I don't know how many boxers are over 6'7"....

    So either I concede Fury fights 'bums' (people like Vinny Madalone I'm guessing you mean, who BTW would smash you up) or I'm 'd1ckriding'?

    :happy
