    If Fury was black you d be forgiven for thinking you were watching Cassius Clay, the speed and the skill were truly awesome.
    The guy is a God

    I have to say its time he got in serious shape, and got a decent trainer and went to america because if this guy can exploit the jab and hold on the inside technique he will be HW champion. There aint much out there and he will outlive the K bros.

    He needs to get a proper trainer, not just his uncle and family. Once he has that I think he will really start to improve. He will destroy at domestic level but he may come unstuck at European.

    I haven't seen much of Price, apart from his one and only fight on Setanta, and he got wobbled by a nothing puncher. From everything I've read about him he has no chin. And he's way too inactive. I would love to be proved wrong, we need British heavyweights who could put up a fight at international level.

    Would love to see them both fight but Fury is being pushed and Price is doing nothing so they will probably never cross each others path.

    The fight was yet another dissapointment, Tyson needs to fight a top level opponent

    He's not even had 10 fights yet! Please don't talk stupid about him fighting top guys yet, he has to build himself up and he's doing that starting with knocking out McMuffin in September.

    yeah but the weekend's fight didnt do anything for Fury - he is better off spending the time getting into shape rather than fight that level of opponent.

    Watch Mike Tyson's early fights.

    Mike Tyson was harder than Fury when he was still at school!
    They don't deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence.

    Fury is the biggest hype machine here in the UK since Audley. And I rate Audley way higher than Fury. The Audley after 10 fights would KO the Fury of 10 fights within 3 rounds.

    That fight says absolutely nothing about fury

    While i agree he shouldnt lack motivation for a fight at this stage of his career, the guy he fought was an absolute disgrace. Fury turned up to honour his fans. Hennesey just proved again, that he's a **** promoter! They guy he fought is no better than someone he fought in fight 2 or 3

    Hoping Tysons back wont cause too much trouble, i also agree if he wants to improve he needs to consider going to the US/Germany for quality sparring and fitness work.

    The same Audrey Harrison who got taken to point decisions 4 times in his first 10 fights, two of which were against blown-up Crusierweights? I'm sorry, but you're obviously a hater who won;t even give him a chance to try and prove himself. I mean for god sake, he's not even been pro for a year and people are writing him off after he has won his first 7 fights by KO. If he was American he would be the next coming, the saviour of the heavyweight division.

    I'm not a fanboi, but I like to give British boxers a chance before I make my mind up about them.

    I try not to be reactionary but every bone in my body thinks he is utter ****, I've not seen a scrap of evidence to suggest otherwise

    His opponent looked like some bloke who won the chance to fight in a raffle down the pub.
