Fury made very short work of him and sent him home in disgrace.

 

Miller goes out there prepared for some good sparring against an elite talent and prospect. When he gets there turns out Fury was on a crack smoking bender and hadn't slept for days and was showing no signs of coming down. Miller shakes his head in disappointment, packs his bags and heads back to the states.

 

When was the last time Fury dropped anyone, I find his story very hard to believe.

 

This is 2011. Miller had 1 pro boxing match and was on a 22 month layoff.

Fury also beat Chisora in 2011 and was a top upcoming prospect in the game. These guys were on 2 different worlds in boxing at the time, so this story is very plausible.

 

The day fury puts down a top 10 heavyweight six or seven times is they say Wilder sells out an arena

 

Hasn't Fury been saying this for a long time? And he once bigged up Charles Martin on his sparring so he's not totally adverse to giving credit to a prospective Joshua opponent.
