I've literally spent this summer drinking beer and having bbqs. And I still look in better shape than Fury. What the **** does he do in his training camps?
any pics? Was expecting him to be at least some what in shape for Chisora. Reckoned if he turned up completely out of shape Chisora would have leveled him, where as an in shape Fury probably wins.
He was shirtless for the reason press conference with Ustinov: [yt]7E5dzBeo0L8[/yt] Certainly not the worst he's looked, but hasn't it been like a 4/5 month camp?
He looks to be tensing and pulling i the auld belly the full time Yeah, it's far from his worst shape, and also far from his best shape.
Distinct possibility. I don't really understand Perez being a 13/8 underdog; he was previously seen as every bit the prospect Jennings is, or more. He didn't look that bad in the draw with Takam. (fair result, had it 95 apiece myself) I think people are reading too much into a few people shouting robbery in that match-up with Takam being unknown heading in, and making the assumption that his guilt over Abdusalamov will have ruined his confidence in the ring. (which there may have been signs of versus Takam, but not enough to say he was mentally ruined by it or won't continue to rebound from it) As for Ustinov, he is garbage but still a bigger, stronger, harder-punching guy than past Fury opponents (including the ones that buzzed him) so the Russian lug does have a chance, early.
Wow Fury VS Ustinov is really happening? This reminds me of Chris Byrd VS Vitaly Klitschko, Byrd had a bad loss on his record just like Ustinov does and Vitaly's previously schedualed opponent Donovan Ruddock had fallen out so they made the much better match VS Byrd and Byrd won. As for who's going to win that's a tough question, Fury did get himself knocked down VS that former Cruiserweight champion and he didn't have the guns to knock out shitty Kevin Johnson. Ustinov on the other hand got outmanuvered by that Pulev fellow and somehow couldn't manage to send David Tua to his retirement by way of knockout, I'm guessing that the height advantage turned into a disadvantage and Ustinov simply wasn't able to connect. The thing about this fight is that Ustinov throws lethal **** at you that you have to be able to move away from. Tyson Fury has not displayed any ability to move away from anything and his tools aren't good enough either to simply outblast Ustinov. I'm picking Ustinov for this one. As for Jennings VS Perez...... Artur Szpilka wasn't able to get the job done but Perez is a bigger heavyweight than Szpilka, doesn't have an attitude problem, won't have the disadvantage of having to take 50 flights to the fight and should be able to handle this rank amateur.
Kevin Johnson isn't exactly easy to KO. The man goes in there to taunt, cruise away and rarely punch. Can't KO a clown like that.
Now that you've grouped all their names together it kinda has me wishing that Jennings vs. Perez and Fury vs. Ustinov were a tourney, with the winners slated to meet. Now that would be a deserving contender, whichever came out unscathed amongst the four.
