    I think he is. I mean lets think about this for a second.


    Fury is funny, witty, entertaining, unpredictable, he can sing.... what more could you want? He has charisma just like Ali. Everyone wants to know Fury's next move and what he's currently doing. Even people who hate him are interested when he's on the screen.

    He's only going to get better as a boxer and he'll dominate the HW division. The Klitchsko brothers are scared shitless of Fury. Manny Steward saw the talent Fury has and everything he said is true.

    No matter what you think about him he does bring excitement to the sport.

    Szpilka is the biggest entertainer right now. All the time trouble in the air when he's around.
    Fury became little bit boring in the past ..

    Probably the most charismatic figure from British shores since Junior Witter.

    Putting Fury in the same sentence with Ali should be against a law...i think you dont know what charismatic means...

    He's funny.

    That's what makes me want to watch someone fight ... if I get a call from a friend saying "Change the channel, there's a really funny heavyweight on TV right now," well that gets me every time.

    He knows how to use youtube, but I've watched some of his press conferences when he's trying, really trying, to be witty and he's just not.

    Good self-uppercut, however.

    hes odd and loud.

    I lost my interest in him after he tried to wrestle little steve cuningham and that ridiculous singing afterwards.

    I don't find him funny or witty at all. Every time he opens his mouth I cringe. He comes off as an idiot most of the time.

    I think he's hilarious! Not sure if it's intentional, though?
