    Does he remind anyone else of Fraudley?

    :-(

    Fury threw more shots in anger in the first round of tonights fight than Audley has in the whole of his pro career.

    I think he might become a superstar.

    I think it might be a bit early to talk about 'being avoided'. The only person avoiding him is the tailor that made those shorts. He didn't seems as big a wanker as he's been portrayed but then that was the first interview I've seen with him.
     
  6. Jeez, I was a fan of Fury until that, no class at all. Haye would bomb him the **** out.

    Fury is a wanker. I want him to get KTFO.

    Same with DeGale.
     
  8. I'll be more specific mate. I want him to get KTFO by THE ROGANATOR.

    That would bring him down a ****ing peg or two. :good

    Fury always comes across as a well-spoken, intelligent young man in interviews who knows his boxing. He showed this again last night.

    Does anyone know what his 'sceret' might be. abe he's going to be even slower and outbox his opponents 'silkily'.

    Seriously though, the kid is not feather-fisted. Give him some time to develop, it wasn't so long ago that Cleverly couldn't K.O anyone, now he's got better technique he's flattening people.

    Fury will do fine, as long as he has a strudy chin (which we have yet to find out) his speed and size alone with set him in good stead for a top HW career, even if he is feather fisted.

    The lucky thing is, some of the top HW's have chin issues anyway. He has more than enough power to stop weak-chinned guys, even if he isn't 'sparking' (but still stopping) rugged journymen.

    To be honest, John McDermott would be a good fight, who's that very well-muscled black guy that's around....apparently with Maloney though I'm not sure if I'm just made that up.

    He should fight Fury.

    Or Fury should fight Sexton or CHisora. Honestly, we get a decent skilled HW come along and he's fighting half-decent opposition for a 20 year old kid and we slag him off and call him feather fisted? Since Khan we are wary of our prospects, give the lad some support!

    It all depends on if he can back it up.

    Exactly how I feel. He's a gypsy, who fights in the biggest division in the sport. He can fight. He's going to be outspoken. And if he can back it up- brilliant.

    He's got us talking about him ain't he. Good luck to the boy, he's taking on reasonable opponents and looks to have something I think.

    With the right people around him and a bit of graft there's no reason why he can't make it. Lets be honest now shitloads of boxers start mouthing off from the moment their opinions can be heard. It just so happens that this guy has an opinion 10-15 fights before he should have and people jump on his back because of it.

    I just think his confidence and self belief are a little too raw but not massively arrogant.
