Tyson Fury In 1900?

I doubt that he would suit the rule set of the day.

 

A man of his height would have been an apple picker

 

Tyson Fury as he is today ... with his size and jab and movement ... let's see.

Tyson Fury turns 28 next month. If he was around in 1900, he would reign as heavyweight champion for the next 19 years ... until Jack Dempsey emerged.

Jeffries would be lost against someone that huge, with a jab and movement like Fury.

So, from 1900 to 1919 ... he'd reign ... which would make him 46 or 47 when he lost to Dempsey.

I don't know if Fury would fight black opponents if he was around in 1900. If so, I don't seen any of them beating him either. Jack Johnson, when he emerged, wouldn't be strong enough to grab Fury's arms and hold them down. Johnson never saw anyone that size with a jab or movement like that. Langford was a dwarf in comparison.

Fury would dominate. And people would consider him one of the greatest who ever lived.

 

I think that he would struggle with the schedule, and probably the length of the bouts.

 

What schedule? Defending the title once a year? He's doing that now.

Jabbing for 20 rounds against befuddled, smaller men? I think he'd manage.

 

Probably loses to a few you wouldn't expect then the old school will use him to show how size doesn't matter and the new school will call dismiss him as a big oaf. That would get destroyed in the modern era.

 

He would be 20 years ahead of his time poltically.

 

That's true.

 

I don't get why everyone thinks these giants are so strong. Especially Fury he's a fat boy.

 

What do you think the reaction would be if his walk up song was Cher's Gypsies Tramps and Thieves?

 

Everyone would be shocked by his foul language.
