    I don't see what's so bad about this fight. Towers isn't far of Fury's level and no doubt would be fancying his chances of winning by KO here.

    It's a compelling fight that no one knows about. Not even people on the forums who are the hardcores.

    Both guys are huge, both guys could be questionable in the chin department, if they land right it could be trouble, both are british, titles on the line, channel 5 to show it etc

    Hennessey is such a **** up.

    Towers is good preparation for Price as he is big but not as technical yet.

    I agree. The fact that Towers is unknown could play to the advantage of the promotion. The casual channel 5 viewers could be drawn in with a few adverts about giants who have never been stopped. The casual viewers don't care about the disparity in levels, because they won't know anything about Towers.

    probably because people are scared of crowd trouble?

    This would be a good fight. Towers would have a chance I think. Not often Tyson fights somebody his size, and Towers is surprisingly athletic and probably better on his feet than Fury. Okay his fundamentals are pretty shite, but Fury is so hittable and off balance and Towers can punch a bit.

    He needs to fight Audley Harrison.

    say what you want, theres no way Fury vs Harrison gets no purse bids
