    i find him pure and utter crass.The thing is if he was a champion and fught names who were somebodys ( i know he cant get the opponents) but i dont think he really has the authorty to act the way he does .

    Also if amir khan acted like that we would all be up in arms about it ,and rightly so .He should leave it till he has done something and look to work on getting into shape

    Seems quite arrogant to me - fairly cocky, constantly chewing gum during interviews - but i really couldnt give a **** if a boxer is arrogant. Goes with the territory and almost every fighter is telling you im gonna win this title, batter that fighter, etc etc. Fury doesnt come across as the sharpest tool though, the wise-cracks seem a bit rehearsed. Dont see the fuss in getting wound up by what any fighter says mind you. Had to laugh when his promoter was boasting that they'd asked all the UK heavyweights for a fight and nobody fancied it, they were all scared. Interviewer says "what, even Chisora?" Hennessy squirms a bit and says something like "well we asked all the guys outside the top 10....":rofl

    'McDonut' If fury himself came up with that, its hilarious. I like the way he just says what hes thinking. Like in his last fight he admitted he couldnt train properly and even took the **** out of the opponent he fought. People forget that this guys still very young.

    I was surprised by the religious talk in Boxing Monthly. Is he into it that much?

    He's got to cut out that habit of closing his eyes and tilting his head back when he thinks a punch might be on the way.

    Personality wise he seems really sound

    Boxing wise he's a bit of a freak show, I don't think he's that good...

    And I can't really respect a young fighter who can't even get in shape

    This fight with McDermott will tell us a fair bit

    {as for the question I don't think he's that good of a fighter and I think he is going to get found out , and I find his personalitly to be annoying and very arkward}

    He's kind of annoying but I admire the way he shittalks about other heavyweights.
