That actually is a bit of a compliment, in that you are comparing a six fight novice to a then mature 42 fight, reigning European, British and Commonwealth champion ...... There can be no serious judgements made about Fury so far, other than he has beat what has been put in front of him, and unlike so many other prospects actually is fighting every month, and I suspect benefiting from that. Maybe this time next year when Fury is hopefully 15-0 (or so), judgements can start to be made.
Yes, I agree. Fury's pro career is just beginning, only time will tell the truth, but for now he does appear to be improving. He appears to have potential and is well worth watching.
I do not like how he turns away from his opponents shots,it has the look of a fighter who is scared to be hit.Still he is only a baby(fooking big baby mind ya) at 20 years old and plenty of time to mature and learn.Its most important that he is brought along just right,not to rush him but give him time to develop,at the same time it will do him no good at all to be held back either.He has potential.
Tyson fury is displaying all the attributes that could see him dominate the division in years to come. I think fury is one of those fighters who fight better depending on the opposition. At this point i would throw him in there with williams or harrison but not skelton or rogan.
Manny Stewart? but id like to see him in there with Wlad eventually. my recap http://theboxingbulletin.blogspot.com/2009/05/british-scene-cleverly-barker-and-fury.html
Manny Steward would be an obvious candidate, but I don't think it is feasible at this present time, and nor is it necessary for him in order to conquer domestic level.... which would be little more than kid's play for the big man. Think about it..... Williams is an accident waiting to happen Skelton is 42 Sprott is past it Harrison is simply a party piece, a joke McDermott is a fat mess Not sure what the future holds for Rogan, Sexton has a Glass Jaw, Chisora has been taken the distance by clowns etc etc
rogan would probably be the srtongest test domestic wise ,i think he should clear out all the dead wood first as in skelton , harrison , sprott and williams etc just to keep busy while he improves then move onto euro level
Boxers usually shake very lightly, and often palm down, so the other person doesn't squeeze their hand. You wouldn't want someone to damage your tools of the trade in a greeting.
