    Not a bad fight, though Fury-Perez would have been better.

    Coleman Barrett would be a woeful step down, he's a cruiserweight.

    "amateurish"? How so?

    Barretts been off the scene.

    No one knows where he is training anymore.

    He doesnt appear to have a manager.

    Then he turns up in Mayo on the weekend and irish-boxing.com interview him.

    Where would you start in an attempt to make contact with him?

    I seriously doubt Barrett would ever fight Fury, i think he'll only fight again if he can parlay his Tua win into a massive payday. Plus he has his jaw wired shut at the moment after Tua broke it in the 12th round.
    But, if Fury did fight and beat him he'd leap near the top of the WBO rankings, i guess that Monte must be ranked fairly high with the two regional belts he just won.

    coleman barrett seemed tiny for a heavyweight in prizefighter, could be an OK fight but I think fury would KO him before the 8th round

    Monte would be a dangerous test for Fury! Its not like he has big power to get him out of there and Monte would do ALOT better then women beater.
