    i like him as a character, but as a fighter i don't think he'll get far. his attitude to training won't change, and all he's really interested in is women and getting drunk. fair enough, because most of us are the same in that respect. in fact, i think he's just a regular guy who has got some natural boxing attributes that have got him this far. he's also surrounded by the typical arselickers telling him he'll be world champ which doesn't help.
    slagging him off for his conditioning is unfair IMO - boxing is his trade and its up to him how much of his life he wants to dedicate to it. i would like to see him get in shape and see how good he can be, but at his age i wasn't exactly career-focused either.

    Why did Fury split with Robert McCracken ?

    Nice guy (from the recent interviews I've read/heard) but he needs to sort his **** out if he wants to compete at the top level.

    Last night's fight was soooo poor, surely he watches his fights and realises how limited he is becoming. The fact of the matter is that he has been dining out on his name and creating hype without much substance to back it up.

    I wish him well but if he's not gonna take his career seriously then neither am I

    He will be one of those fighters who start to reach full potential after they loose 1 or 2. He jsut needs that kind of wake up call.

    I disagree i think Fury stops Chisora late when the going gets tough.
