Missed the weigh in. Arrived to walk past a crush in Pretty Flamingo as Paddy Doherty was trapped in the shop by hordes of female fans. The photos of Tyson and Firtha aren't very flattering - maybe it's the angle, but they didn't look too bad from what I saw of them when posing for tv cameras. Definitely seen much, much worse.
he just doesn't look strong enough for me. he looks like he could do with losing abit of flab round the waist and building up his shoulders and arms a little. not massive bulk or anything just a bit more muscle. it would give him that extra bit of pop. cus right now he hasn't got the power to worry any decent heavy weight.

He's never gonna look in great shape or seriously improve until he moves his training camps elsewhere Really not that excited for this fight & Im a big fan of Fury
remember he is still young though and the only training (other than a few months with manny steward) is with his uncle. he hasn't been taught how to use his size yet. it's not like klitschko's do anything that complicated, they juat make the most out of there physicality. jab jab straight, jab jab move, jab jab hold. im sure tyson could learn how to do that.
What did Fury weigh in at? He has lost weight, and if he's lost more since his last fight then he's going in the right direction (although it looks like he's put some on to me.) I'm more interested to see how he boxes rather than how chubby he may or may not be looking.
Ha love all this slagging off of Fury, in 10 years you ll all be calling him the greatest there ever was,,,trust me.
i doubt he'll be much better than his last fight. as far as i know he hasn't had any world class sparring and as good a trainer as his uncle is, he hasn't got the knowledge needed to shape and mould a world class fighter. fury will obviously win but i bet he makes loads of mistakes again. unlike some people i do think he has a lot of potential. i see him as just as good as helenius or povetkin. people will laugh at that but taking into account his age and lack of propper schooling, he's a pretty good fighter.
I do see potential there, Fury is doing well at his current level but I think the disparity in skill, talent and ability between the likes of the brother's and Fury is always going to be there. The sad thing is that once you've proved you're the best in Britain there isn't a whole lot of other options outside of the top boys, there isn't any depth to the division whatsoever.
