    that is good to hear. this fight has to be made quick. another flaw in boxing is that controversy dies and fighters are forgotten. i was hoping this rematch would happen much quicker.

    Fury will win rematch rather easily.

    Why not? It would be a good draw.

    Because Fury is clearly lacking at the world level. Do you think Haye would have struggled with McDermott?

    ****, even Skelton dealt with McDermott pretty easily. One round TKO wasn't it?

    Correct. Fury over-rated, a guy his size and punches like a middleweight FFSake.
     
  11. Wait, the re-match won't happen because Fury is lacking at World Level?

    Both lads are lacking at World Level, no reason not to have another crack at it.

    Exactly.

    Give Fury a break. He's hardly a seasoned Pro yet (I know he talks himself up). Again we should be pleased their is a fighter out there who wants to fight the best.

    Personally I think we need to wait till after the re-match to see how good Fury is.

    For me though Price is the better prospect!
     
  13. Price is the better prospect mate, no doubt. He's still got a very long way to go in the pro-trade, but I think if handled rightly he could actually become a World level Heavyweight.

    How can I give him a break when, no sooner has he looked guff against McDermott, he starts saying he can beat David Haye!?

    That is the problem with him. If he keeps saying he's a world-class fighter, I'm going to judge him by the standards of one.

    Forget about Fury. Price and Dallas are the only real prospects
