    No you mis heard...its Tyson "too FAT Fury". :patsch

    What a sloppy mess Fury is. All the crap he spouts makes him look a bigger fool...he's definitely a KO waiting to happen. I'd not give him a prayer against Wlad. He is a kidder just hoping to get a big payday or 2 and retire. His character and dedication is too flawed to be close to as good as his mouth would try n fool fools into believing.

    Tyson "Too Fast" Fury

    Did I hear that correct?

    If this keeps up pretty soon we're going to have Amir "Steel Chin" Khan and Victor "Huge Heart" Ortiz

    Props to Chisora for being the first to drop Johnson. Johnson was still arguably better than the mad dog haters would say, the official scorecards and Chitown's analysis and score were about right. Still, this was Johnson's last chance to (re)enter contender status and he blew it. At this point, I'm dropping him out of my top 20 active HW list, I don't see him ever getting back into it.

    Meanwhile, Chisora made a statement against an active (compared to when he fought Fury) Johnson. I hadn't really seen the point to a Fury Chisora rematch, hadn't seen any reason to think the rematch would go any differently than the original, but considering their respective performances tonight, Chisora might have a chance after all.

    But, I'd much rather see Chisora vs Povetkin. Anyone know if there's any truth to it? That would be a tough one to call, Povetkin should be slight favorite based on resume, if Del Boy won that one, he'd be propelled right to the top of the HW contender heap. Hopefully it comes to pass.

    Good post. Yeah povetkin is better skilled than chisora but not many can stand that pressure that chisora brings. After 6 rounds they give up

    I'd like to see Chisora fight Povetkin or Pulev.
    Hell, I'd like to see Chisora vs Marco Huck. That fight wouldn't get Chisora a title shot, but it would be fun to watch.

    Povetkin vs. Chisora

    Fury vs. Mitchell

    First one would be a fun clash of styles between top 10 HW's and the second would be a fun stoppage in 3 or less, likely 1, and with as much a chance as a double KO as any fight in history.

    And yet he is STILL unbeaten with a n 80% KO ratio having got past Chisora, Cunningham & Kingpin.

    He also made Abell look like a clown ... but Abell gave Pulev real problems for the first 7 minutes and also floored him :patsch

    And Pulev is the 2nd best Heavyweight on the planet.

    Apparently.

    Pulev is nowhere near as good as Povetkin.


    Also, Johnson is the single most useless boxer I've seen in my entire life. Holy crap, what a waste of time this dude is time and time again.

    Respect for changing your opinion in regards to Johnson. I said he was not a genuine contender and last night proved once again he is more of a gate keeper level of fighter.

    Fury/Chisora is a tough fight to call. Both have improved, but both have weaknesses and it may come down to who wants it more and who shows up in better shape.

    I agree Povetkin/Chisora would be a good fight and one I'd rather see than Fury. I'd have Povetkin a slight favourite as well. I think his extra power, slightly better technique will be the difference if the fight is made.

    Chisora is more popular than the Klitschkos out in Russia. The Povetkin fight could have a lot of truth to it.

    Hate to say I'm glad I missed a boxing event but did the Kingpin/Johnson pose and make silly faces all night?
