    I quite like the Charr fight as an way of becoming ranked- his belt effectively means nothing at this stage though.

    Eddie Chambers would be a good first run out.

    Light puncher and they are mates so Eddie will let him win - good 12 round open sparring session.

    Reasonablele name to have on the record too.

    Chambers is a classy guy. Fury likes and recognises that in people, hence he always gets on with the good guys, Parker for instance. Who the feck hugs a man at a presser when hes fighting his cuz. Respect

    What about Scuba Scott. There's little danger there and chasing after Scuba would hone Fury's reflexes.

    To have him in the same sentence as Leonard is laughable
