He has also only fought once since his first fight in March, what is he waiting for, injuries aside? Fury, was seriously exposed and it is time to see whether this guy actually has the stamina and discipline and desire. I dont think he has. Belshaw is a joke and is not even British title class. The rest listed I will reserve my judgment on as I have not seen them fight. Therefore, none of them will get above British title level IMO.
He signed with Hayemaker and after the Setanta collapse he was left with a promoter that couldnt get him any fights. He has signed with Maloney now and fights on 16th Oct in Sunderland and then again on 23rd in Bolton. No injuries.
Price will get to Euro possibly. None of the others will do that. Fury needs Fran Warren style matchmaking to win the Lonsdale :good
I just can't understand this point of view. Fury, after 7 fights won against a domestic class, 30 fight veteran. Fair enough, the actual result can be argued but I don't think he was 'exposed' at all. If anything he could take more positives than negatives. The guy's a natural fighter and Euro class easily.:good
McGuirpa At no point during my post did I say he was exposed. Half of my thinking is down to the fact that I dont like the lad. The other half is down to the fact that he's a **** boxer mate :good
I agree with you. But I think he may reach Euro level simply due to the dearth of talent in the division and the marketing machine behind him.
It was somebody further up who said he was exposed. He ain't ****, he's just raw mate:good Marketing machine? Mick Hennesey? He couldn't flog a cure for cancer! Anyways, he wouldn't be the first to prosper in a poor division would he? Until the wall fell and the Slavs came into the European fold Europe was hardly noted for it's Heavyweight boxers. The last European title fight I saw was Skelton/Vidoz. Fury would have beat either of them that night. They were shockingly poor.
Not talking about Hennesey in particular, I'm talking about the Fury bandwagon (or would Fury Caravan be more appropriate?).
Price should go the furthest, needs a pro trainer though, Fury British level and no more as Price will do him and pass him by, the rest are just also rans typical British heavyweights
